The only place I will buy vehicles from! Let me say this, "Brandon Ford is the only place I go to buy vehicles".

I have bought 3 vehicles from Brandon Ford over the last 4 years, and Sudesh, "Jack" is the only person I deal with from the sales side. There is absolutely NO high pressure sales approach, and once the deal is made, the rest of the buying process is just as comfortable. Brandon Ford is interested I building a long term relationship with their customers; In addition, if you are willing to wait a little bit to work with Seth in the finance department, it is well worth your time. I have been financing heavy equipment for 15 years, and Seth is a professional. While Seth did offer and recommend various additional offerings such as extended warranties, he did not try to pressure me to buy them. Full discloser, I purchased a certified used vehicle, and did purchase an extended warranty. I have had no issues with any of the used vehicles purchased from Brandon Ford... again, I cannot recommend this dealership and Sudesh, "Jack", high enough. More
Worst Service Department Never have I ever had more trouble from a service department as I have from Brandon Ford. My car has been here for various reasons from the time it wa Never have I ever had more trouble from a service department as I have from Brandon Ford. My car has been here for various reasons from the time it was 6 months old - bought the car brand new. Most recent issue is overinflation wear of tires from last service in July, caused uneven wear to, now, 3 undrivable tires. Talked to service manager who stated it's been "too long" since they've touched the car to do anything. Funny, I took it in for the scheduled maintenance, so tell me how that's "too long." The tires were sufficient until they got their hands on my car most recently. So of course, no one wants to take ownership and the service manager just gave me a "sorry." Will never buy another car from here, or go for service. Will make sure everyone else knows how poor this service department treats their customers. Not to mention how pathetically they beg for "excellent" surveys from customers! Unfortunately, this is only one issue of many I've dealt with from this dealer. More
Great deal, Suspect math Let me start by saying that the deal I got on my Transit Connect was great.

To prove the point, I'm in New Jersey and flew to Florida to make the purchase. Now the math issue, I believe they use an outside firm to handle titling and registering out of state deals. When the sales person sent me the initial breakdown of all the costs, I noted that the sales tax figure was incorrect. I let him know and he said that the numbers came from this "firm" and if there's any problems it will addressed. Fast forward to when I received my plates, registration and a refund check for over charges, there wasn't a breakdown of how they arrived at the refund total. I asked for it and they were kind enough to send it to me but there was still that sales tax discrepancy. It was clear as day in the breakdown they sent me. There was the sales tax charged me and further down was the amounts of tax paid out to FL and NJ. Well after multiple email exchanges with the sales person, highlighting their own numbers, I just gave up. Bottom line $124, not the end of the world but it's the principle. Could have been a 5 Star review! More
BEYOND IMPRESSED WITH THIS FORD TEAM In our lifetimes, we have worked with 14 car dealerships to purchase vehicles. I am pleased to say Brandon Ford was THE BEST dealership to work with h In our lifetimes, we have worked with 14 car dealerships to purchase vehicles. I am pleased to say Brandon Ford was THE BEST dealership to work with hands down. We drove nearly five hours to purchase our new 2017 Ford Mustang GT Premium (our sixth Ford vehicle). Initially I thought there is no way a dealership could be as fabulous as the reviews indicated. However, the entire process from the initial call to arriving the next day was seamless, professional and very warm. Our salesman, Jim Gordon, and the sales manager Bob Mulroy, lived up to the glowing reviews and then some. They were honest, transparent, worked hard for our deal, and have an incredible inventory of Ford vehicles on site. We received a significant discount as they are a high volume dealer with down home service. Any vehicle color or trim level you want to see is certainly on their lot. This makes for a cool vehicle buying experience! There was no pressure, there was simply pride in exceptionally crafted American vehicles. They believe in their products and their work proves their commitment. We left grateful, proud of our new vehicle, and a long-time friend of Brandon Ford's. Since leaving, we have received a call as well as email following up on our experience and ensuring all our needs were met. This is rare customer service that extended beyond a business. The truly care about their products, their customers, and every transaction that they make. Well done, team. I am proud to have purchased an American made product from an outstanding team of professionals. More
Waste of time and money. I had contacted this dealer 3 days before with my trade info and received an estimated trade in evaluation online. I was happy with the numbers and ma I had contacted this dealer 3 days before with my trade info and received an estimated trade in evaluation online. I was happy with the numbers and made the 2 hour drive north from Fort Myers to the dealership in order to get my new vehicle. We started talking numbers after seeing my trades in person and being satisfied with the condition. The salesman then walked to his office and came back about five minutes later saying that they were going to offer me $8,000 less than I was promised in the email. He stated that some other salesperson mistook the information I sent for a lifted F250 SuperDuty. I can not see how that is possible since I clearly defined it as a F150 and attached the VIN, so I am not sure if he was just outright lying or trying to generate a LOT more profit for the company. Needless to say, I walked out of the showroom and will never be returning to this store again. I wasted 4 hours of travel time, not to mention all the gas money in order to be lied to and taken for a ride. Awful way to do business. More

Otis Colbert sales manager is the best! My wife and I were in on Sunday, September 18th. It was a very busy day in the sales department. All the sales consultants were busy with clients but My wife and I were in on Sunday, September 18th. It was a very busy day in the sales department. All the sales consultants were busy with clients but Otis Colbert the sales manager made sure that we were taken care of. He personally took the time to give us some numbers that we could try and work with, while still handling many clients and sales consultants with their clients. After we left on Sunday, it was no doubt that out of all the salesman and sales Managers from many dealerships from Naples to Tampa, Otis and his staff are by far the most courteous and respectful that you can find on this coast. After looking for the right vehicle for over 5 weeks and to be honest I had enough of dealership sales staff. It wasn't just that their numbers were better then their competitors but most importantly we didn't once feel like we were slime balled into buying a vehicle. We bought a super nice truck yesterday and we will 100% be back to hopefully buy another vehicle in the near future and then another one for my youngest son. It all comes from good training and proper leadership. Otis is a straight forward guy and an incredible asset to the Brandon Ford team. Keep up the great work Otis and the Brandon Ford team!

The process was relatively quick and the salesman was easy to keep in contact with throughout the process to set up an acceptable time. The car's battery died on me the first day I had it and when I contacted the salesman, he made sure to take care of the issue the same day without me ever having to leave work or my home. Great service and easy to keep in communicate with. More
