Nelly, and his new Ford Flex
Nelly received a nice treat by Ford Vehicles recently at his 34th birthday celebration in Las Vegas – his very own customized Ford Flex.
His vehicle was unveiled at the Specialty Equipment Market Association show there, while his St. Lunatics partners and Avery Storm surrounded him.
The rap superstar was also presented birthday cake in the shape of his Ford Flex.
The custom vehicle is blue with a white roof, with black leather interior, 22-inch wheels, and a special applique on the roof.
Nelly first eyed the Flex at a Ford event in Atlanta earlier in the summer. “When I saw it, I said ‘Yo, that’s hot. How can I get one of those?’ ”
Apparently, all it takes is being Nelly.
Kevin C. Johnson has covered the St. Louis' music and nightlife scene for the past decade. 
Hey Nelly, Can I get a ride? LOL!
