A first class experience!
A first class experience! Not enough people are talking about AutoLenders. A relaxed atmosphere from the moment I walked in. My sales consultant Adam in the Lakewood location was outstanding, he was professional, polite, he explained every single detail. This was the first time I’ve purchased a car and felt like they actually wanted to sell the car I wanted. Clinton in the finance department was also outstanding , he was organized and explained everything and made sure I understood everything as well. Please visit this location! Please consider AutoLenders for your car purchase!

Although pricey, this truck is awesome to drive . Very sharp looking and runs fast! I highly recommend ! We went from a Flex to this car and it was a seamless transition.

2024 ford maverick lariat hybrid
The salesmen were very good and honest. They listened to my concerns and helped to accomadate me and show me the things my car could do.

I often drive to the Michigan upper pennisula in the winter. This SUV has never disappointed me. One time I was driving up to Sault Ste Marie early in the morning. The road was slippery with blowing snow. The outside air temp was MINUS 41. i was alone with hardly ever seeing another vehicle. I kept thinking "trust this vehicle" because my life literally depended on it. I had no problems. And everything was on high - the defroster, rear defrost, heated steering wheel, heated seat, radio and keeping my phone charger plugged in. And in case you wonder why I would venture out in these conditions - I was called for jury duty and made it on time !! It has also gotten me out of deep snow.

Coleman GMC
We have bought or leased 4 cars from Coleman. The sales staff is friendly and capable and the service service department is very professional.
Explorer GREAT design!
The ford explorer is an outstanding suv. The new design in 2020 is stylish and the rear wheel drive/4 wheel drive option is state of the art. The ecoboost engines are economical and extremely powerful. Ford dealers are everywhere! Ford parts are common and easy to obtain! I looked at the competitors. Front wheel drive is not suitable for trucks in my opinion. The handling of a rear wheel drive vehicle is outstanding. I actually have a 2022 platinum with the 3.0 v6 and this 2021 base with the 2.3 4 cylinder. Happy with each!!!

The best
Steven was the best! He helped make the process fast and easy. Very proactive and took care of my every need while making the deal on the other side of the country!
love the Ride
First time Explorer owner, had an Expedition that I loved but it was too high for my wife, so it went to our son. The Explorer Limited is lower, but still higher than a crossover or sedan which helps my visability. Love the electronics but concerned that they will have problems later on so I purchased a dealer extended warranty (bumper to bumper) that is 10 years 125,000 additional miles for piece of mind. Car drives like a dream, is VERY comfortable, has more than enough power even with the 4cyl (used to V8's). Gas mileage even with 4WD is great (23 city and almost 29 highway) not climbing hills. We will see how it does when we go north.

L.O.F. And service Ford Edge, excellent service. Only complaint is Ford not making the Edge for 2025 . Excellent vehicle, I think Ford is making a huge mistake. No interest in an EV or Ford Escape .Please bring back the Edge.
I love my ST all except for seating.
I love my ST all except for seating. I’m just not a fan of European style seating soo we had an upholstery shop up grade them. Sooo much fun to drive! Great gas mileage considering I’m a lead foot. And when needed you can put a full 4x8 sheet of plywood in the back.

I went to Auto Lenders - Lakewood NJ because three people
I went to Auto Lenders - Lakewood NJ because three people I know recommended it. First, I checked their website and found a certified low-mileage 2021 Subaru Forester listed at a price that pleasantly surprised me. I read about their no-haggle policy which stated the advertised price is the firm selling price. This relieved me of the stressful pricing head games that I always disliked at traditional dealerships. At the Auto Lenders Lakewood store, sales consultant Owen and finance manager Clinton got me through the purchasing process smoothly and efficiently. The car was as nice as advertised; the quoted price held firm, and I was very pleased at the allowance on my trade-in. The car comes with a 6-month bumper-to-bumper warranty, and a lifetime warranty on the engine. I highly recommend Auto Lenders - Lakewood NJ, and I'll definitely come back in the future.

We cannot praise this dealership enough!!! It was an actual pleasure dealing with Joe the sales manager, and Marlo our sales woman ! We got a great deal and were treated wonderfully. No haggling, no back and forth. The whole process was done quickly! Just agreed on a very attractive price for the new vehicle and for our trade in! Would highly recommend Malouf Ford to anyone. We made an hour and a half drive and it was so worth it! Thank again!

If You Want the Best; This is the Dealership!
I have been with this dealership for 30 years and I have recommended this dealership to family and friends because CUSTOMER SATISFACTION is important to them. From the sales people to the service department, they are professional, courteous and everyone tries hard to make sure your experience buying a new or used car is a great one. I bought my grandson's 1st car at this dealership and he now understands why I but my cars with this dealership.
