Mario made my lease transition seamless.
Mario made my lease transition seamless. We spoke a few times on the phone and he had all the paperwork waiting for me to sign. Spent less than a hour at the dealership.Will definitely continue to use Garnet Ford for our family vehicles and Services.
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

Corey Fitzpatrick was a wonderful sales person.
Corey Fitzpatrick was a wonderful sales person. He was not pushy at all. He did not pressure me to make a purchase and he allowed me to test drive the car for a good amount of time so I could really get the feel of it. I really enjoyed working with him and would definitely recommend anyone to ask for him when making a purchase. Thank you for making my experience a very good one.
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.

Friendly service
Everyone was very friendly and extremely helpful. Answered all of my questions. Excellent experience overall. Would definitely go back in the future when vehicle shopping.
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.

Had a great experience purchasing a vehicle with Kyle.
Had a great experience purchasing a vehicle with Kyle. We showed up with the intention to simply test drive one vehicle, which we didn't like, and he quickly discovered our needs and sold us a much better car within the same visit. We're very happy with the vehicle and our experience. There was a minor price snafu that he resolved for us promptly and made sure we were satisfied.

Buying a used car
My wife and I went to buy a used vehicle, had no pressure from any sales people, took all the time we wanted to look around the lot at their vehicles and there was a lot to choose from you could also check them out on their website . Ashley was very helpful and told us take all the time we needed and let her know if we had any questions. After we decided on what we wanted we were driving in home the next day very satisfied thanks to Ashley Jay and Preston

Great service and communication
They were able to quickly get me in due to a cancellation even though they are backed up due to COVID Diagnosed and estimated the work and completed it within the estimate (a little under). Great communication once they were able to get it in the shop.

We had an awesome experience with Matt at Ourisman
We had an awesome experience with Matt at Ourisman Tri-State Ford. We found our dream car on their website, contacted Matt and he walked us through the whole process. We had to fly into Baltimore to pick up the car and drive it home (we live in ND). Matt picked us up from the airport and we were in and out of the dealership in a couple hours…on our way home! The car is exactly what it was projected to be online and we are very happy! Highly recommend!!

Honest, easy to work with. No pressure
The Sales Manager Jonathan was super helpful and easy to work with. They took the time to show me all of the vehicles that I was interested in with no pressure. I would highly recommend this little gem of a dealership. The dealership is small, but they are building a brand new store nearby.

Great Service Manager
I brought my Transit Connect for "The Works" to the Service Center for an oil change, etc. today. Was greeted by Paul Rubin, Asst. Svc. Mgr. who assisted through the process and kept up informed throughout the visit. He was sooo helpful and nice and even helped me with syncing my phone to the van. Will definitely ask for his assistance when I go back again. Thanks Paul for quality care.

Shopped 6 Ford dealers for leasing an F150.
Shopped 6 Ford dealers for leasing an F150. Not only did these guys beat the lowest lease offer by $100/month, but Mauro?s low key, non-aggressive sales tactics, and professional knowledge on how leases operate was a refreshing change! Thank you Mauro for your personal insights and experiences with leasing. I am loving my PowerBoost F150. Thanks to you and Tony, you made this a great deal for me. I would have never shopped you guys if it wasn?t for a COWORKER who suggested I go to your dealership! Thank you again. See you soon :)
