Great Honda dealership
Jeff Reed provided great service. He is attentive to what we want to know and goes the extra step to make sure he provides that. All the people we spoke to were professional and friendly.
Great car
Best car I’ve ever owned. Does everything I want//need it to do. Always starts in the morning. I’ve been camping with it and slept inside the car. Plenty of room

2023 Ford Explorer XLT
Have only had vehicle for 3 weeks but really like it. I’ve had F150’s for the past 12 years and thought I’d miss my truck, but I’m really enjoying this explorer. It’s more comfortable and fun to drive and the gas mileage is better.

BEST DEALERSHIP ON THE PLANET!!
ABSOUTELY WOULD RECOMMEND!! JIM, KAYLA & BRETT HAVE ALL BE BEYOND AMAZING TO MY SON & I. PROBABLY, LITERALLY THE BEST CAR DEALERSHIP I HAVE EVER BEEN TO. THEY MADE US FEEL COMFORTABLE AND WORKED BEYOND THEIR DAINLY AND NORMAL SCHEDULE TO STAY LATE AND MAKE SURE I WAS TAKEN CARE OF. MY SON WHO DREADED GOING WITH ME, WAS ACTUALLY HAPPY HE WENT. THESE 3 PEOPLE, I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT. THANKS YOU AL SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING. YOU'RE THE BEST 100%.
Nice vehicle
Quiet, comfortable and powerful car. I have the twin turbo that puts out 400 hp. General gas mileage is 19-20 city and 24-25 highway. The only thing that I would change on this vehicle is that I would like to be able to turn off some of the automatic operations on a semi-permanent basis.

Impressive
This is the first explorer that I have owned in nearly 30 years. I am coming from a ram 1500. I am surprised how comfortable this explorer is I’m really enjoying the gas mileage between 21 to 23 in town. I have not taken a trip on the highway yet.

Thank you to Tyson Edmonds of the Jack Schmitt Ford
Thank you to Tyson Edmonds of the Jack Schmitt Ford Service Department for taking care of me!!! He was able to help me out on my used 2013 Ford Focus having clutch issues and get me back on the road... my original dealership told me nothing was wrong with my vehicle. I took it over here and I wish I went here way sooner. After only having my car for a day, I could tell they were doing more work than my original dealership ever did. They found my "shuttering" issue and was able to get it fixed after a battle with Ford in approving the repair. They also found issues that my original dealership missed/caused. They took care of me- instead of a 5000 dollar job, it only resulted in 440 dollars. Tyson was excellent and I felt like he knew what he was doing the whole time. He kept me in the loop and explained everything perfectly. I never once got an impression he was trying to screw me or run a fast one on me- it was the exact opposite. I knew I could trust him and he was trying to help me. Tyson you are the best sir!!!! I will be coming back anytime my car faces issues. I can trust Tyson and Jack Schmitt. Thank you guys for turning a very stressful situation into a sigh of a relief and getting me back on the road. My vehicle drives brand new and I know you guys did your work and did a great job!!

Best Service Possible!
I just bought my second car from Roberts and can’t speak highly enough of Anna Henschen. Both times she has gone above and beyond to find the car I want. Curtis was also incredibly kind and helpful in the buying process. We will continue to use Roberts for all of our auto needs.
