Treated the way you want to be treated! I picked up my new F350 today and from the day that I first talked to Pat about what I might want, to the day I ordered it, and now through delivery, I picked up my new F350 today and from the day that I first talked to Pat about what I might want, to the day I ordered it, and now through delivery, it has been a great experience. He helped me sift through all of the options and explained what came with each package ensuring that I got just what I wanted. Everyone at Howell's treats you like they really want your business. This is the second vehicle that I have gotten here and the first experience was just as rewarding. This is truly a courteous, and professional dealership where the customer comes first. I can see why their slogan is "where friends send friends". More

Really bad service department They don’t know how to do warranty work or really fix anything. Tried to charge me $400 plus to “clean a plugged egg valve” valve was bad. Cost me $ They don’t know how to do warranty work or really fix anything. Tried to charge me $400 plus to “clean a plugged egg valve” valve was bad. Cost me $250 to do it myself when under warranty. Show me a ford repair manual that says to clean a eye valve and I will take this back. Total scam rip off. Unqualified techs. Never again. More

Enabled me to get into a great car with great amenities while steering me clear of making a choice where down the road the car would be worth substantially less than what I owe. Its hard to make smart choices while seeing cars and vehicle options that are nice, fun, luxurious, useful... but outside your budget. Pat O'Malley and Howell Motors helped me accomplish both...smart choice with a car that has great technology, practicality, toys and comfort! More

The sales dept. and my salesman ( Bruce Ryder ) was easy to deal with with No Pressure . ( A real Super type of person ) I had bought from this dealership in the past with Great success , so I decided to give them a try again , and I'm glad that I did . The deal I received on a New FORD Escape was very good , and the handling of the financial and business end of the transaction by Phil Penepent was done with perfection . ( Not One Problem through the complete transaction ) I highly recommend that anyone looking to Buy or Lease a New Car or Truck go to Howell Motors FORD and check them out . More
