Typical shady dealership with liar salesmen who will tell

Typical shady dealership with liar salesmen who will tell you anything and never answer honestly, just to get your money. Everything the company did was amazingly rude and unprofessional to boot. I have a list of grievances far too long for me to bother typing it all up but trust me YOU DON"T WANT TO BUY ANYTHING HERE. Judging by the other reviews, I wish I had checked Yelp sooner to know what I was getting into. I definitely will never make the mistake of buying from them again, maybe not even Ford dealerships in general based on the unreported issues that Ford '"checks for" but at the end of the day it was probably Gator Ford mechanics that were the issue there.

WOW!

WOW! What a great up front price they had on an F150 Lariat. However once I asked for an out the door price they got VERY CREATIVE. Every line item add on was inflated far beyond actual costs and then the tacked on "Gator Perks" which they really could not explain the "Perks". $2,850 for WHAT? Once I told them no they dropped that item, but were still not competitive with my local Orlando area dealers. 22% in Extras............no thanks.

Just want to say how nice it was dealing with Scott

Just want to say how nice it was dealing with Scott Brinkman at gator Ford service counter. Scott kept me informed at all times. Scott is very knowledgeable which made me at ease. He arranged me a ride for work, again kept me in the loop and had me back in my truck in no time. Because of Scott and his professionalism I feel comfortable bringing my truck to Gator for for all my needs Thanks Scott

Professionalism, attentiveness and attention to detail

Professionalism, attentiveness and attention to detail can not be beaten. Everything was perfect to my liking. I had a few minor things going on with my vehicle and had no idea what to do. When I went in I thought it would be a typical dealership and they not care but Savannah behind the desk blew me away. She told me things that made sense to me that I've never really thought of. Her knowledge and professionalism of everything really had me loving the fact that I even walked in the door. I will definitely come back here all the time now. Thank you , Savannah. Amazing work!

I had an amazing experience with Gator Ford trading my

I had an amazing experience with Gator Ford trading my F150 for a newer model. Rollin Seeley the Sales Manager was extremely reasonable with his pricing and gave me a great value for my trade. Tommy Murman my sales advisor was extremely knowledgeable about the product and explained any differences from my current model to my new one. Richard Molden my Finance Manager was easy to work with and not pushy at all. 5 stars Gator Ford!
