bigger is better?

I have had the displeasure of working with big dealerships in the past and always walked away with the feeling of being just another number to them. At Grinwald i did not have that feeling. i did have to arm wrestle with John Grinwald (came out a draw) on some extra amenities but in the end it all worked out. i would recommend them for your vehicle purchase.

Purchase of Quality Used Car

We had a fine experience dealing with Chad Wickert and John Foltz in our purchase of a 2015 Ford Focus yesterday (2/19/2019). With the help of our daughters Anna and Sara, Ruth and I found ourselves dealing with Chad in making a comparison of two vehicles which fit our situation. Ruth and I are 79 years old and still possessed of our faculties to operate a vehicle. In our experience we have in the last 10 years bought "our last car" two times, but find ourselves able to contend a while longer in the "game of life" to need another one. With sufficient TLC we found ourselves in the hands of capable people who answered our questions and directed us to the one for us. John cared for the final paperwork. The whole procedure took a little over 2 hours and we drove away in our (to us) new Titanium. We are sure we got a good "last car."

Best experience I've ever had!

So far I've bought 2 vehicles from 2 different dealers. The first time around I made a very large mistake of going to Kearns in Johnson Creek, I was rushed into buying a truck that had cleverly hidden rust spots and countless issues. I'm so glad I went to Grinwald Ford in Watertown. No pushy salesman. The people there are nice, helpful, and know what they are talking about. All in all wonderful experience start to finish.

Stress free, no pressure experience!

Grinwald Ford definitely exceeded expectations. No gimmicks, and certainly no pressure to purchase a vehicle. Chelsea was great to work with and I cannot thank her enough for making me comfortable during the entire process. I'm very happy with the entire experience and also thrilled about my vehicle. I wish I would have went there sooner!

Bill is a great salesmen without the car salesmen gimmick

I would like to thank Bill for doing a great job and not being pushy on anything. He listened to what we wanted and was able to work with us on options we wanted. My Wife and I have had some horrible experiences when buying cars in the past from other dealerships and this was not the case here. In the past guys come running out and will not leave you alone when looking at vehicles. This was not the case with Bill, he was very laid back and not pushy with anything. I would recommend Bill at Grinwald to others who are looking for a new or used vehicle. Thanks Bill!!

Easy and Hassle Free!!

Grinwald Ford provided a great hassle free purchasing experience. We met Bill when we came to look at a car I found online. He got my wife and I set-up for a test drive, offered to show us any features we were not familiar with and gave us all the time we needed to look it over and test drive. Price was great and John helped us arrange financing, which was a painless, sometimes fun experience! When we took delivery Bill was waiting with a small bouquet of flowers for my wife. He then went over all the features of the vehicle and helped set-up all the access codes and pair our phones. We love the small town charm of Grinwald Ford and thank everyone for such a great experience.

Great first vehicle purchasing experience!

In looking for a used vehicle for myself after driving the car that I've had since getting my license, I was apprehensive that we'd find something that fit my expectations in the right price range. After much searching, we found one that fit the bill! We drove a little over 200 miles to find it and were not disappointed. The staff were very accommodating and friendly and helped us move through all the steps smoothly and swiftly. We left very happy with our purchase, and the flowers at the end were a nice touch. I would definitely recommend people checking out this dealership, they had a lot of inventory and were great to work with from the purchasing, finance, and all other aspects. Thank you for making this such a great experience!

Amazing truck buying experience

While looking for a new truck online I was able to find the one I wanted at Grinwald Ford after I increased my search radius. I call the dealer and was connected with Bill who was very helpful and we arranged a test drive. When I arrived I saw the truck was just what I was looking for. Having looked at tons of trucks online this truck was priced below many of the others that I found with about 40,000 less miles on it. Everyone that I dealt with at the dealership was just great. This is my sixth or seventh vehicle purchase from a dealership and none of the other dealerships compare to Grinwald. After my sale was completed I was talking with my salesperson Bill outside and the owner of the dealership John took time to come out and thank me for my business. It made me feel like I was the only customer in the dealership at that moment in time. The day we arranged to pick up the truck went just as smooth. It was raining outside so Bill had the truck parked inside where we were able to go over things and set up my phone. On our way out he handed my wife flowers and me a Ford hat while saying congratulations on your new truck. We came from about 50 miles away and let me say it was definitely worth the drive. Their laid back approach and small town feel really makes you feel like a friend or acquaintance and not just a number or another sale!
