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.

Robert and his technician team are the best!
Robert and his technician team are the best! My Bronco had numerous recalls along with needing a water pump. I received updates on the progress and was pleased with how long the repairs took.

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.

Great service , speedy
Great service, like always greets me by name right as I walk in the door. I go in to get things fixed that I'm aware of, few times they caught other things that need immediate attention or future and let me no in advance
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!!!

West Herr Jeep has a great selection of vehicles!
Jason, Aron, Liza and JP are an amazing group of people to work with when buying a car. They were so helpful and fostered a fun, relaxed atmosphere. I would highly recommend West Herr for your new Jeep!
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.

I’ve leased or bought 4 vehicles from Robert Basil over the last 10 years. Madison has sold me my last 2. She’s been great. Very helpful. Always willing to find the answers to your questions. I especially like the “engine for life” warranty on used vehicles. It has come in handy a few times.

Honest Review of My Car Purchase Experience - This
Honest Review of My Car Purchase Experience - This review is a mix of highs and lows. Let’s start with the positives: Pros: Jim in Service was outstanding—informative, helpful, and someone I truly trust. My current car is waiting on a back-ordered part, and because of my confidence in Jim, I felt comfortable making the decision to buy a new car and eventually pass mine down to my daughter. The negotiation process was smooth. Mick and Nate were super helpful and efficient, making the purchase experience pleasant. Cons: Brandon, the warranty guy, was condescending and disrespectful. When I declined the warranty based on Consumer Reports reliability studies, he suggested I wouldn’t be in this position if I had purchased a warranty on my other car (which wasn’t true) and went so far as to call my decision "foolish." After spending over $30,000, that kind of treatment left a sour taste. Picking up the car was disappointing. Even though it was a certified gold vehicle, I drove off with an empty gas tank and the gas light on. Thankfully, Nate met me at a Speedway to fill it up, but it took away from the excitement of the moment. Cleanliness issues. Since taking the car home, I’ve found spider nests in the hatch molding and dog hair on the back seat upholstery—definitely not what I’d expect from a certified vehicle. Final Thoughts: I love the car, and 99% of the staff treated me well, but there were some frustrating and deflating moments in the process. The dealership does a lot right, but addressing these issues would make the experience much better.
