My Review of Akins Ford of Athens:
While i have been a loyal customer to another well known used car dealership, i decided to do some additional research this time. This led me to Akins Ford of Athens who had the exact used vehicle i was in search of. The vehicle was priced better then everyone else, but unfortunately i live about an hour and a half away from the dealership. I decided to make the trip and battle my anxiety of dealership phobia. What a decision it was and boy was it worth it! Much to my surprise it ended up being the best experience i have ever had purchasing a vehicle. Keith provided a no pressure atmosphere and left it up to me on making decisions. I almost forgot, the value on my trade-in was spot on too. My purchase was over two weeks ago and i have waited long enough to post this as i still cant believe it went that flawless.

So, just from my experience with Kieth Dean and the rest of their team encountered, i would highly recommend visiting this dealership. New or used, they will be my first choice in the future.

My Review of Akins Ford of Athens:
I truley enjoyed working with Keith Dean. Keith answered all my questions in a manner I could understand and explained anything I didn't. I was looking at the Focus online and then I came by the dealership and checked it out while the dealership was closed. The next day I put in an inqury and Keith Dean followed up with an hour. He was not an aggressive sales person he was very understanding and listened to my wants and needs.I would highly recommend Mr. Keith Dean and Akins Ford of Athens to my friends. I would also like to thank Keith Knoerr who stayed late and explained the terms of my financing. Keith and Keith worked very hard to sell me the perfect car. They went above and beyond to answer all my questions and even stayed late to give me time to have my fiance come up and review the deal. Thanks Keith and Keith. You guys ROCK !!

My Review of Akins Ford of Athens:
I found the ford f150 on the web. I live in Knoxville, Tn area. Hve never bought a car out of state before so I was a little nervous about the whole process. Let me say that Keith was so friendly and helpful in every way possible. When I arrived the next morning I saw what was probably the nicest car dealership that I have ever been to. Free coffes, latees, and a soda fountain machine. Nice waiting areas and a super friendly staff. The best cr buying experience that I have ever had. It was Definetly worth the 4 hour drive no I guarantee you I will Keith and the gang at Akins ford of Athens again!

My Review of Akins Ford of Athens:
I came in just looking at the used Escapes thinking of the possibility of replacing my older cars with something newer. Kareem Neal came out and approached me to see if he could answer any questions. His friendly and honest personality went a long way to helping me make my decision to purchase. He is one of the friendliest dealers I have ever worked with.

My Review of Akins Ford of Athens:
Kareem was very helpful and willing to get us what we wanted. He worked very hard to get us the vehicle that suited our family needs with the price we wanted and could afford. He and Keith bent over backward to please us even though I must admit we were a difficult sell.
Thank you for Akins Ford of Athens!!
