Overall, a pleasant experience and we left with the feeling that we received a good value. Both Mike Cooney and Nate Bryant were great to work with. They explained all the features on the new Explorer in detail, especially the electronic devices that are new to us and made sure we were comfortable with everything before we drove off. More

Rich and Roscoe went above and beyond to get me approved and in car. Bad credit, very little money down and no trade in. I was approved and driving home in a 2016 Focus. Very happy with the car. Roscoe was awesome. Very personable. No pressure and made me feel comfortable. By time I left I felt like we had been friends for years. I would highly recommend Klaben Ford. I will return when I'm ready for a new car! Thank you, Klaben Ford More
