Flxible
Flxible, known as Grumman Flxible from 1978 to 1982, was a transit bus manufacturing company that went out of business in 1996.
Flxible sold a lot of buses to many major urban transit agencies including the Maryland Transit Administration in Baltimore, Maryland during the 1970s and 1980s. They also sold a small number of liquefied natural gas (LNG) powered buses to the Maryland Transit Administration in 1994, but they had many problems, and in 1998, they were sold to Montgomery County, Maryland and converted to diesel. When Flxible closed, it was said that there were still buses on the assembly line ready to be shipped to the Maryland Transit Administration and other transit agencies. The company was based in Loudonville, Ohio until 1976, when it was moved to Delaware, Ohio. Some big customers were New Jersey Transit, Maryland Mass Transit Administration, Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority, Miami-Dade Transit Authority, Chicago Transit Authority, Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County, Fort Worth Transit Authority, Tri-Met, and the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Authority.
