Helpful Expert Reply:
I recommend going with the Draw-Tite # 75679. This will give you a Class III trailer hitch with a 2" receiver for your 2015 Ford Flex. I like this trailer hitch because it has been rated as a 4 out of 10 for installation difficulty and it will fit whether you have dual exhaust or not.
You will also need wiring like the T-One # 118472 which gives you the basic lighting functions for your trailer and a ball mount/hitch ball/pin & clip combination like the popular # C45036. This comes with a 2" hitch ball and has a 2" drop. Before purchasing a ball mount I recommend checking out the attached helpful article to make sure it is correct for your towing application.
Be sure to check out your owner's manual for any specific instructions about towing with your Flex.
