Born and raised in St. Louis, a Mehlville H.S. graduate. I have a daughter and a step-daughter, and I'm a fan of all St. Louis sports and English Premier League soccer, particularly Tottenham Hotspur. Like any true Cardinals fan I also enjoy giving my wife grief for being a Cubs fan. Outside of work you can find me spending time with my family, remodeling our house, or playing golf. My favorite thing to do is to help people get into the vehicle they want or the vehicle that will fit all of their needs! I am passionate about my customers and because of this, many have become repeat, long-term members of the Sunset Ford family, because my service is top-notch. I take a lot of pride in my work, so if you are looking for a new vehicle, stop in and ask for me! You will have one of the best car buying experiences you’ve ever had.

A Great Dealership Representative If Sunset Ford treats us (down the road) the way Jim Wagstaff did when we purchased our 2014 preowned Edge, it should be an excellent relations If Sunset Ford treats us (down the road) the way Jim Wagstaff did when we purchased our 2014 preowned Edge, it should be an excellent relationship. Jim was very helpful, courteous, and accomodating when he helped put us in our new vehicle. He listened, took notes and worked with us in seeing we got exactly what we were after. He personally rates a 5 out of 5 in our book. Hopefully if problems should arise, the dealership behind him should be so accomodating. Great job Jim, Thanks Again! More

Purchase of 2014 Escape Jim was very helpful and professional in our recent purchase of a 2014 Ford Escape. We had done homework on your website and had narrowed our choices Jim was very helpful and professional in our recent purchase of a 2014 Ford Escape. We had done homework on your website and had narrowed our choices prior to our visit. Jim took our list, assisted us with finding the best value and walked us through the entire process. Even a couple of minor glitches did not derail the process, would recommend Jim for future purchases. More

Professional, NOT Pushy. GREAT Experience Okay so I was in the market for a new (smaller engine) vehicle; Saturday 17JUN I visited Sunset Ford (St. Louis) because I had been eyeballing an Oxfo Okay so I was in the market for a new (smaller engine) vehicle; Saturday 17JUN I visited Sunset Ford (St. Louis) because I had been eyeballing an Oxford White Focus they had on their lot. My wife accompanied me and we walked the lot, looked at some of their stock, then went to Bandana's BBQ in the adjacent lot for lunch. We discussed in depth me looking at the White 2016 that kept catching my eye: 2016 Focus SE Hatchback with a sunroof, backup camera, and less than 34k on the clock. Pardon my language but combined with the lifetime warranty from Sunset Ford, it was a xxxx of a deal and I would have been a fool to pass on inquiring on it. The thing that made the complete transaction as smooth as possible was our salesman, Jim Wagstaff. Jim was pleasant and professional when approaching my wife and I in the lot and wasn't an annoyance. We asked if I could take the Focus for a spin and I instantly fell in love with it. When we returned to the lot, we were more than ready to sit down with Jim and begin hashing out a deal for said car. Within about an hour and a half they had made me an unrefusable offer on my trade-in and an amazing offer on the Focus. By end-of-business, my wife and I rode home in my brand new 2016 Focus SE. Honeslty though, even though I was (and am) in love with the Focus, the deal probably wouldnt have been made if Jim was a pushy salesman. He was attentive to my questions and even laughed at my corny jokes (even though they most likely weren't funny).. This Ford dealership's current slogan is "Dont close the Deal til Sunset". If it wasn't for the well trained and courteous salesperson, this deal most likely WOULDN'T have been made. Long winded but overall: My wife and I were impressed with Jim and the car buying experience at Sunset Ford. I can def. see me doing business here again in the future, and sending any of my friends/family to see Mr. Wagstaff. Thank you Jim and Sunset staff who helped me with the purchase of my new ride.

Great Experience We were not looking to trade at that particular time. We were planning on sometime after October. However, we just happened to be in the neighborhoo We were not looking to trade at that particular time. We were planning on sometime after October. However, we just happened to be in the neighborhood and my husband loves Fords. I have liked the Escape, so we just stopped in. Jim was the salesman who approached us and it just evolved from there. Murl was interested in the Explorer - too big for my taste. The Escape too small for him. We settled on the Edge. Sounds a lot like the Goldilocks and the 3 bears story. Anyway, Jim was very helpful, knew answers to all our questions, and made it easy to just leave that evening with the Edge. So far we are in love with the handling and overall performance and still learning about all the bells and whistles with the new car. I personally do not like visiting dealerships - too pushy, but my experience was so good I have already recommended Sunset Ford and Jim to friends. Hopefully they will heed our suggestions. Thank you all. More
