The team at Graff Used Cars is amazing!
The team at Graff Used Cars is amazing! Our dealings with Michael Cooper and Dusty were top notch. They were professional, communicative and very easy to work with throughout the buying process. They were prepared when we showed up with the car, the financing and paperwork. We would definitely buy another car from Graff again based on this experience!
Highly recommend buying a used 2018 Explorer
This is my fourth Explorer. I decided in 2018 to order the top-of-the-line Platinum. This vehicle has all the bells and whistles for a person that wants the luxury of one of Fords top models. It has Platinum leather seats that are very comfortable. If you can find today, buy it. It has the 3.5L V6 that has great power on acceleration. You can only buy a V6 now on the 2025 Explorer ST which is a 3.0L. The cost is around $60,000 Loaded.

I recently visited Wickstrom unsure of what kind of car I
I recently visited Wickstrom unsure of what kind of car I was looking for, and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to work with AJ Soderholm. From the start, AJ was incredibly helpful, taking the time to walk us through several vehicle options and letting us test drive each one to figure out what fit our needs best. What really stood out to me was AJ’s professionalism, knowledge, and genuine approach. He was patient, friendly, respectful, and most importantly—not your typical pushy salesman. That made the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The whole process went smoothly, and I ended up purchasing a Ford Mustang Mach-E. After the sale, AJ made sure to go over all the features with me and ensured I felt completely comfortable before I left the lot. If you're in the market for a new car, I highly recommend stopping by Wickstrom and asking for AJ Soderholm. You’ll be in great hands!
3rd row seat folding mechanism
Love this car overall but I have only one complaint. I was putting some boxes in the rear of the car and one of the boxes must have touched the the rear seat folding mechanism as all of a sudden it tried to unfold the seats. If my grandchildren had been sitting there strapped in I hate to think what may have happened!! Wish you had coverage over the mechanism so this wouldn’t happen.

Mr.
Mr. Phil Lambert, thank you so much for your high - quality professional knowledge about my situation .
My dream car
This is my 4th Ford Explorer over the last 20 years and I am very happy. Every time I upgrade is nicer in every aspect. I am glad that after so many people telling me to just go to another style and company, I made the right decision.

Used car purchase
Jeff B was professional, personable, considerate and everyone from start to finish did an amazing job, I am excited to be in a newer vehicle and the ease of the buying process was wonderful, so far a great experience, thank you.
Very good car, durable and trustworthy
Love the inside room, 3rd row seat and the fact that the 2nd and 3rd row can be collapsed. Love the rear camera and all of the functions of being able to bring my phone apps up on the screen. So good for our very busy, on the go lifestyle

I ask a lot of questions, challenge any information that doesn?t make sense to me and expect honest, timely and transparent communication from the service provider. Latonya and the Orange Buick Service and Parts team exceeded my expectations! This was my first visit and happy that I have a trusted partner with my new-to-me Yukon XL.

"Stamford Dealership is very professional from start to
"Stamford Dealership is very professional from start to finish. When I first visited their website, I noticed their high star rating, and now I can confidently say they truly live up to it! From the moment I call in, Sergio was welcoming, knowledgeable, and attentive to my needs. Sergio in sales made the car-buying process smooth and stress-free, answering all my questions with patience and expertise. Parker in service was equally fantastic, ensuring everything was in top shape and addressing any concerns with great attention to detail. The selection of vehicles was impressive, and the overall quality of service exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Stamford Dealership to anyone looking for a smooth and hassle-free car-buying experience!"
