Cloninger Ford of Hickory

I had a wonderful experience working with Eric and the rest of the staff. They got me a great intrest rate and I enjoyed the haggling over the final price of the Honda Pilot that I wanted. Relaxed and no rest of the staff. They got me a great intrest rate and I enjoyed the haggling over the final price of the Honda Pilot that I wanted. Relaxed and no pressure. Will recommend to others and will deal with again soon. I had a situation that I could not go to dealership to complete the paper work or pick up SUV and they brought both to me and I live 45 mins away from the dealership. My co workers were impressed when they heard that they were coming to me. The SUV had a full tank of gas and brand new tires too. Had a great time and that is hard to say when dealing with salesmen. Thanks Eric love the SUV. More

I tested the Limited version first and then exp purchasing my new 2013 Ford Explorer. Eric went out of his way to make my test drive simple and easy. I tested the Limited version first and then explained that my cashflow was more a basic model. Eric along with Dwight made my day. My trade-in was very fair so I said "Yes". I was even blown away that I was able to get better finance with them than I could my own bank! My Family would highly recommend Eric to anyone interested in a new or used vehicle. My wife is going to want to get a new car when I bring mine home.... Take care - Troy More

Eric Smith was the salespersonb that helped us in purchasing our new Edge. Eric went out of his wasy to find out what kind of car we were considering, the options that we wanted, and using his pat purchasing our new Edge. Eric went out of his wasy to find out what kind of car we were considering, the options that we wanted, and using his patience to show us all the available vehicles that would work for us. We saw a color that we really liked and he found us a vehicle with that color by searching other dealers. He was able to find a demo that met our needs including one that offered the most rebates. His patience, listening skills, and knowledge made this experience rewarding and satisfying. I would recommend this dealership and salesperson to anyone who is searching for a new vehicle. More

Eric and the entire staff I worked with on purchasing my new 2011 Ford Ranger XLT was the easiest experience I have ever had in purchasing a new or used vehicle. The professionalism from all, especially Er new 2011 Ford Ranger XLT was the easiest experience I have ever had in purchasing a new or used vehicle. The professionalism from all, especially Eric, is second to none. I have relayed information to the 400 employees I manage and suggested to them that if any are interested in purchasing a vehicle, Cloniger Ford should be the first and only dealership I would visit. Eric Smith did a great job from beginning to end in our negotiations and I for one can honestly state that when they say they will beat any dealership around, they do mean it. I walked away very satisfied and when I do purchase another vehicle, new or used, it will be with Eric and his supporting fellow employees. Too bad I can on rate a 5. I believe 10 should be available. JD Bridges, a satisfied customer. More

These Guys are very arrogant JERKS I would not tell anyone to go there. I have done Business With Mr. Larry Cloninger for years and I can not believe that he has these Guys working there. They talked t anyone to go there. I have done Business With Mr. Larry Cloninger for years and I can not believe that he has these Guys working there. They talked to the salesman like he was trash. If I was him I think I would contact an attorney. Also I heard them tell another customer that they would give them a free oil change for a good survey!! That is why you are seeing good ones on here!!!! More
