Dowling Ford has a very small town dealership feel to it which I prefer over the corporate “high pressure” dealerships out there. They were very personable and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from them again. which I prefer over the corporate “high pressure” dealerships out there.

Scheduled an appointment to come buy a car. Confirmed that I was coming day of. Both myself and my partner took the day off of work and drove nearly 2 hours one way. Literally 1 mile away from Confirmed that I was coming day of. Both myself and my partner took the day off of work and drove nearly 2 hours one way. Literally 1 mile away from the dealership they called me to say that they sold the car. Extremely unprofessional. Classic scummy car dealership. Don't waste your time here because they clearly don't respect it. More

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST BUYING EXPERIENCE IN MY 60 YEARS ON EARTH ! I'm naturally a somewhat skeptical person, "don't expect a lot & you'll never be disappointed" is my motto, but Dowling Ford & their team o EARTH ! I'm naturally a somewhat skeptical person, "don't expect a lot & you'll never be disappointed" is my motto, but Dowling Ford & their team of down to earth professionals went miles & miles beyond my greatest expectations in #1 - ordering exactly what we wanted in our new Bronco Big Bend, #2 keeping us informed during the LONG build wait (it was a Bronco after all !) & finally #3 making the delivery day fast, easy, & most importantly enjoyable! I'll work with actual family owned over corporate "family " any day. While the "big boys" are charging thousands $$$ over MSRP & calling it market value adjustments after your vehicle shows up, Dowling Ford kept their word WITHOUT me having to ask for it in writing, I was just that comfortable with them. Thanks Beth, Dan, & Asher for the wonderful experience, looking forward to doing it again when my Maverick shows up ! More

My wife bought a 2017 Jeep Patriot here. We got a great deal, as in there words, they are off the beaten path so have to lower their prices to be competitive. We worked with Dan Janus, and he was friendly, deal, as in there words, they are off the beaten path so have to lower their prices to be competitive. We worked with Dan Janus, and he was friendly, nice and helpful all the way though the transaction. They have low fees and do not pressure at all, no haggling needed, the price is already as low as they go. Overall we had a pleasant transaction, and the only thing I would say is poor Dan appears overworked and underpaid. At times he was a little slow to respond to emails/texts, but not for trying, working 10 hour days with no lunch. We got there in the end, viewed the car on Friday and drove it off the lot on Tuesday. Perhaps October is just their busy season. More

Car maintenance and Service I returned to Dowling Ford to purchase my used 2012 Ford Fusion 3 years ago. I trusted them as a family owned business. I generally do not trust car I returned to Dowling Ford to purchase my used 2012 Ford Fusion 3 years ago. I trusted them as a family owned business. I generally do not trust car dealers. However, they are different. They know and care about their customers. I have returned for oil changes and car maintenance because first my car was under warranty and then my car repair garage closed. The service department is highly trustworthy and good. They did not charge me for a new battery last year, because it should have had a warranty to last longer. They gave me a free oil change one time, because they need to keep my car an extra day to do some work on it! They have provided me with free loaners twice. Thank you Dowling!! More
