According to the Ford towing guide, if your Flex has the towing package, you'll be limited to maximum 450 lbs. of tongue weight. Also, they place a limitation of 30 sq. ft. of trailer frontal area and that is going to be real difficult to overcome with a hard-sided trailer.
Evidently, the Flex, with it's smaller engine, is not a real good tow vehicle. You would probably be happier and have more worry-free miles by buying a tow vehicle that suits your needs.
Good luck with the trailer hunt.
