My family started selling vehicles in 1927. Back then it was Model T's and dirt roads throughout nearly all of Southwest Florida. We were known as Lee Motors and my grandparents owned the store. They often told stories of Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and Harvey Firestone dropping-by the dealership. While vacationing at his home on the Caloosahatchee River, Mr. Ford would visit with the people that sold and serviced the vehicles he created and even ask advice on how he could make their jobs easier as design changes took place on future models.
Then, in the mid 1940's and 50's my father, Sam Galloway Sr. assumed operating control and ownership of the store. Under mounting pressure from Ford Motor Company, the store was re-named and relocated. The Southwest corner of U.S. 41 and Colonial Boulevard became home to the new Sam Galloway Ford. "Senior", as my dad was know, remained the owner of the store until 1970. That was the year that I became the youngest Ford dealer in the United States and the Colonial location remained our home until 1996.
After being in our Colonial location for over 40 years, we moved to our current location on Boy Scout Drive. While operating on Boy Scout Drive, we were given the opportunity to acquire the Lincoln franchise...and we did!
Now, with my three children Sam III, Katherine and Robert, the fourth generation is involved with the management of our organization. Many things have changed during the last eight decades but not our family focus on our customers or our community. We support several different charitable organizations throughout Southwest Florida. Among them are the American Cancer Society, the preservation of the Edison-Ford Winter Estates and the Community Cooperative Ministries (The Soup Kitchen), to name just a few.

Thanks and enjoy!

We have been part of the Sam Galloway Lincoln "family" going on 7 years. Here is why: Lincoln is a great ride; the sales staff is easy to work with, they are fair and reasonable; great follow up after going on 7 years. Here is why: Lincoln is a great ride; the sales staff is easy to work with, they are fair and reasonable; great follow up after the sale; service advisors and service is excellent. We considered other Lincoln dealers as well as other makes of vehicles when looking to trade in our oldest Lincoln but our experience with Galloway Lincoln is hard to beat. Also, the Lincoln automobile is just a great ride at a great price which to us that equates to excellent value. More

Galloway Ford by far is the best I have ever worked with purchasing a new vehicle. They have set the gold standard for honesty and keeping to whatever commitments they made. I highly recommend them to anybo purchasing a new vehicle. They have set the gold standard for honesty and keeping to whatever commitments they made. I highly recommend them to anybody looking to purchase a new vehicle in the Fort Myers area .David Deardorff, my salesperson , was a true gentlemen throughout the buying process and took care of all my needs without any pressure. I appreciate this as I was in sales for over 40 years and know what it takes to get and keep a customer for the long term. I will recommend them to all 2500 homeowners who live in my community when the need for a new vehicle arises. More

Our salesperson, Dean, was knowledgeable, professional and pleasant. Completing the purchase was seamless (don’t remember gentleman’s name), and picking up the vehicle was efficient.

Our sales person, Jared Miller, was great and kept us informed when our car would be in. He went over all the features with us and then called to see how we were doing and asked if we had any questions. informed when our car would be in. He went over all the features with us and then called to see how we were doing and asked if we had any questions. I’m very disappointed in Ford that my husband is a veteran and we should have gotten a rebate but because he was in the service from 1968-70 it didn’t apply. Why would you say a veteran discount and then say “well it only applies to those who have been out two years or who had a career in service”? Ford should have said only SELECTED veterans. This is not acceptable and we are very upset about it as my husband served his country and this rebate should have been granted. More
