I found a pre-owned Mustang convertible online that I was interested in. Because I live 3 hours away, I really wanted to know the overall condition of the car before driving all that way. I was fortunate e interested in. Because I live 3 hours away, I really wanted to know the overall condition of the car before driving all that way. I was fortunate enough to get in touch with James Cianciolo and explained to him what I was looking for and just how picky I was about the condition of the cars I buy. He said he'd take a detailed walk around the car, make notes, and call me back. James called me back later that day and went into detail of all the imperfections of the car, even the small ones. Based on his description I made an appointment to look at and test drive the car. I can tell you that his description was very accurate and I wasn't disappointed (in stark comparison to a couple other dealers who told me only what I wanted to hear just to get me there, and then I found their cars very disappointing). We made a deal on the spot and I picked the car up a few days later. Overall very good experience! Thank you James! More
Many thanks to Jeff Gladding for going above and beyond Many thanks to Jeff Gladding for going above and beyond during the purchase of our "new" 2005 Ford Freestyle Limited AWD vehicle. Jeff was very pro Many thanks to Jeff Gladding for going above and beyond during the purchase of our "new" 2005 Ford Freestyle Limited AWD vehicle. Jeff was very professional, friendly, and most helpful during the viewing, and ultimately the purchase of our vehicle. His knowledge and truthfulness were much appreciated. If he didn't know an answer, he investigated to find it and got back to you in an instant. He was diligent, yet not pushy like sales people encountered at other dealerships. Thanks Jeff for such a pleasant experience, and for getting the car ready to go. We are truly grateful! A+ service The rest of our gratitude goes to Manny Pinho. Thanks for making the financial aspect of purchasing a car so easy. Mr Pinho clearly read all terms and conditions, making sense out a lot of paperwork. He clarified all aspects of the loan, breaking down every charge and fee. He made the loan process painless! His wit and humor helped break the ice, making us feel comfortable about completing the transaction. His banter with Selena, our 8 year old kept her from being a bored kid in an office! Thanks again to everyone at Shakers Family Ford Lincoln in Watertown CT for making this the best car purchase we've ever had, from the moment we entered the doors we felt like family! More
Mynhusband and I were very hesitant to deal with a dealership and tried online searches for a used vehicle. Our friends referred us to Cathy Reed at Shaker Family Ford and we are happy we went to see dealership and tried online searches for a used vehicle. Our friends referred us to Cathy Reed at Shaker Family Ford and we are happy we went to see her. She listened to our needs and what we were looking for and was genuinely interested in what I was looking for in a used car. We are completely satisfied with our transaction from beginning to end and hope to keep our relationship not only with Cathy but with the whole "family" at Shakers. My husband knows and feels comfortable knowing I will be taken care of for any future service or car sales needs. More
I've purchased many vehicles over the years, and rarely has the experience been positive. However, Jenn Thibodeau changed the "sales-person" perception for me. She was extremely friendly, not fake rarely has the experience been positive. However, Jenn Thibodeau changed the "sales-person" perception for me. She was extremely friendly, not fake, but a genuinely nice person. She listened to what my needs were, and instead of having the tag team manager/salesperson try to sell me a car, she stood up for me and my needs. When we took a test drive, it was like I was going for a ride with a friend. The dealership is beautiful, the staff is courteous and friendly. I would recommend Shakers Family Ford Lincoln to anyone looking to buy a new or used vehicle. I purchased a CPO Ford Edge... I absolutely love it! Thanks Jenn and everyone at Shakers!

I recently bought a ford edge from Shakers family ford in Watertown. I had been shopping for months so I had experienced a lot of other dealerships. I met with Sal Catalano and was very comfortable having hi Watertown. I had been shopping for months so I had experienced a lot of other dealerships. I met with Sal Catalano and was very comfortable having him as my sales person. He was very polite, not pushy and aggressive like some of the other places I went to. He was also very knowledgeable about the vehicles I was interested in. I was very pleased with what they gave me for a trade in and they honored a price Quote I got from Truecar. I felt I got a great deal and love the car. Sal helped set up my phone and showed me everything about the car. I would recommend Sal as a sales person and Shakers as a dealership for anyone buying a vehicle. Phyllis A. More

Bye Bye Jeep, HELLO Ford! Our last 3 SUV's were Jeep Grand Cherokees, This go round we test drove Audi, VW, Mitsubishi and Ford. For years, we've tried Fords, always settling on other brands, but this Grand Cherokees, This go round we test drove Audi, VW, Mitsubishi and Ford. For years, we've tried Fords, always settling on other brands, but this time we were BLOWN AWAY by the Ford Escape, as it is head and shoulders above the competition. Standard features, easy low entry, intelligent all wheel drive (can't wait for the first Nor'easter), responsive ride, and performance (esp. The 2.0L EcoBoost engine), awe inspiring voice activated technology that actually works!!! Like "tune to 99.1" or "find pizza" or "call home"... From the moment we walked into the brand new Shaker Family Dealership until we drove off in our luxurious new SUV, the experience remained relaxed and inviting. Our Sales Rep, Jenn Thibodeau was very attentive, never pushy and she worked hard to cook up a great deal! BOTTOM LINE: If you're considering a SUV, you owe it to yourself to test dive the Ford Escape w/ a 2.0L EcoBoost engine from Shaker in Watertown! More

I arrived at Shaker's terrified for my first car dealer shopping experience, but my nerves were calmed when Jeff Gladding greeted my family and me. He accomodated my handicapped mother for our test dealer shopping experience, but my nerves were calmed when Jeff Gladding greeted my family and me. He accomodated my handicapped mother for our test drive and was genuine and helpful throughout the process. He pointed out all of his favorite aspects of the vehicle, which was helpful. He gave me his cell number so I could contact him if I had any questions on his day off. Ed and Manny were also helpful, and I felt comfortable purchasing my new car from Shaker's. More
