North Richland Hills, TX 76180
I've lived in and around the Fort Worth area since 1983 so I consider myself a Texan. I've been married to my beautiful wife, Stephanie, since January 1992. We have 3 kids: Zachary, Katelynn and Carson. I graduated from Grapevine High School in 1985 and attended UT Arlington where I studied Chemistry and Business Management. I worked in pharmaceutics in both the retail and hospital settings for over 13 years. My favorite pastime is restoring old cars although finding the spare time can be a challenge. My family enjoys traveling as well as amusement parks.

Only the Best!! I've been in the auto business for about 16 years, and this was the best experience I've ever had buying cars!! That's difficult to say because my wif I've been in the auto business for about 16 years, and this was the best experience I've ever had buying cars!! That's difficult to say because my wife and I have purchased 4 cars from Jeff Crabtree over those 16 years and he has always been the best!! We did something new this time and went and met Jeff to order our cars the way we wanted them in December. We then waited, mostly patiently, until February for them to arrive. After not seeing Jeff for a car in 10 years, he welcomed us both with a hug and that made the very beginning of the process feel like seeing family again! If you ask nice, he might hug you too!! He and Rick Dike were very attentive to our needs and both treated us like friends and family! When Rick saw that the Explorer didn't meet his delivery detail specs, he forced us to let him clean it up, while I protested and told him it was fine! I can't say enough about him or Jeff!! Jimmy Truong was awesome handling our paper work and financing!! As a guy in the business, it is hard to deal with finance specialists outside of your own dealership, but Jimmy set both my wife and I at ease from the start! He was never pushy or overbearing. He explained everything and made sure we knew all the benefits of what we were getting!!! Now, the icing on the cake and the person that saved me a lot of grief and frustration...drum roll please...JIMMY MATHEWS!!!! When you buy a new Ford from these guys, do yourself a favor and make sure you schedule some time with Jimmy! After not having brand new cars in 10 years, (bought several pre owned in between the new ones), my new Mustang had more technology features than my 2007 did, and my wife's new Explorer had immensely more features. I know she was tired, and hungry, and ready to go home, but I made her wait for Jimmy and I know we are both glad she did!! He made sure she knew how to use everything in her new car and I even sat in for most of it so I would know how to use it all rather than learn on the fly. Don't pass on time with Jimmy as that is what is missing in so many dealerships these days. The delivery process has gotten rushed and shortened because customers want to leave in their new car and the salesperson is ready to move on to his next opportunity to feed his family. He was so patient with our questions and never rushed to get us gone!! If you are looking for a new Ford, go see these guys at Five Star Ford, North Richland Hills! We drove over an hour to see them, and if you do the same, you'll be glad you did!! More

Great experience, friendly staff! I recently purchased a Ford Explorer from Crystal Sanders at this dealership, and the experience was lovely! She greeted me and was warm from the begi I recently purchased a Ford Explorer from Crystal Sanders at this dealership, and the experience was lovely! She greeted me and was warm from the beginning, I had refreshments and even a phone charger to use when my phone was dying! We checked out a few cars and a ton of options, and I ended up getting the perfect car for me at a great payment! Through the whole process, including aftermarket with Sam O'Reggio and Financing with Tut Edwards (AKA the Tutman experience), I felt very comfortable and everything was explained well to me. I am so excited about my new car and all the features that come with it and I look forward to being part of the Five Star Family :) More

Professional, friendly, and helpful! Definitely the best car buying experience I've ever had from the first phone call with Travis Ferguson all the way through the fun Valentine send off. Definitely the best car buying experience I've ever had from the first phone call with Travis Ferguson all the way through the fun Valentine send off. Travis was professional, knowledgable, friendly, and helpful. I don't like to be pressured by a salesman, and he was very kind and patient. He worked hard to help me find exactly what I was looking for. I love my 2017 Ford Edge! Jimmy Truong, the finance guy, was very efficient and professional. The Valentine roses was just icing on the cake. Thanks, Five Star Ford! Janice Latham More
