Raul was extremely helpful and efficient with the car
Raul was extremely helpful and efficient with the car buying experience. I’m glad he was our salesman
I got my 2006 ford explorer eddie bauer Ltd.
I got my 2006 ford explorer eddie bauer Ltd. In 2008 used. I love it. It's 2024 I has the oil changes regularly (it's tells me) which is wonderful. Yes I needed tires obviously. But the only repairs it needed since I have it was the gear shift. The front axle got changed last year. And now the rear axle needs changing and they say some pieces are rusting. Now I did have an issue with it stopping when I would go over a speed bump. So took it to a repair shop close to work. BIG mistake. First they said it was a silinod (spelled wrong) Replaced Then they said it was the fuel tank. Replaced Then they said take it to Ford. They didn't know but gave me a list of things that will need done eventually. Spare plugs, etc. Finally after a month I got angry and took it up to Trump motors (repair shop) where my dad deals. And it ends up that in my ford explorer I have a emergency shut off. So on the passenger side front panel area. There is a pump button. If it happens just wait 2 minutes give it 2 or 3 pumps and start it up. They did/showed me that for free. So expensive lesson. But I absolutely love my Ford explorer. Wish I could keep it forever. But I realize it is older and now rear axle and rusted pieces, driver leather seat needs replaced and liner coming down. So I'm thinking I need to update. Hoping to get something similar. Oh yeah I'm also 5'2" and love sitting high and seeing everything.

5 Stars – Outstanding Service from Derrick and the Team Just bought a new truck from Skyline Ford in Keizer, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Derrick and the entire team were outstanding—professional, helpful, and genuinely committed to making sure we were taken care of every step of the way. They treated us right, with no pressure and total transparency throughout the process. I’ll definitely be recommending Skyline Ford to anyone looking to buy a new truck. Thanks again, Derrick!

Got a 2009 Ford Explorer about 2 months ago from these
Got a 2009 Ford Explorer about 2 months ago from these guys. I can’t be happier with it, not just that I bought it for a great price but the vehicle itself is perfect for the year and the price! I totaled my previous Explorer and was desperate for another one but everything I’ve seen was either in a horrible condition or the price was through the roof, I came across them guys and I literally won a jackpot! I’m so happy I had to leave them a good review! I really appreciate your work and your business, if I or any of my friends will be looking for a good vehicle, I definitely know where to go not to waste any time. Thanks again!

Honestly, the best dealership in San Antonio.
Honestly, the best dealership in San Antonio. After checking multiple different dealerships, Dado and Goran really took their time to find a vehicle that would work for me. They were super friendly, knowledgeable, and really made this process smooth for me. If you’re looking for a trustworthy dealership that goes above and beyond, Dado Motors is the place to go. I can’t recommend them highly enough!
