Everything was on time and as expected.
Everything was on time and as expected. Prince did a good job and always takes care of us.
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.

Very good experience, Aly was knowledgeable, friendly, and very professional. I was in and out of the store with a completed trade in very quickly. Thank you
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.

I bought a car from them this week and was very satisfied and impressed. I highly recommend salesman Christian Fernandez - he was very professional and made the process personal, comfortable and fun! He provided exceptional service. If possible call ahead for an appointment and come prepared, I'm from out of town Christian helped me get it all done in 1 trip, trade-in and all.

After purchasing more than 20 new cars over the years, I
After purchasing more than 20 new cars over the years, I can say without hesitation that my experience with Wickstrom Automotive Group was the best car-buying experience I’ve ever had. What made this experience truly exceptional was the care and professionalism shown not just to me, but to my son as he purchased his first car. The entire team went out of their way to turn the process into an educational, confidence-building experience for him—something I genuinely appreciate as a parent. I want to specifically recognize Eric Jensen, Sales Professional, who was patient, knowledgeable, and generous with his time, walking my son through every step of vehicle selection and the sales process. Chris Moose, CDJR General Manager, exemplified leadership and professionalism, ensuring everything was handled smoothly and transparently. And Colin Wickstrom, Owner, reinforced why this organization operates at such a high level—his involvement, friendliness and commitment to customer experience clearly set the tone for the entire group. From start to finish, there was zero pressure, clear communication, and a refreshing level of honesty that’s rare in today’s automotive market. Wickstrom Automotive Group treats customers like long-term relationships, not transactions and dare I even say my son and I had a ton of fun throughout this process. If you’re looking for a dealership group that sets the gold standard for how car buying should be done—especially for a first-time buyer—I give Wickstrom Automotive Group my strongest recommendation.

I bought a 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz SEL Premium from Mike
I bought a 2023 Hyundai Santa Cruz SEL Premium from Mike and I am very please with the truck and the incredible service he displayed. I live in Fairfield Illinois which is about 5 1/2 hours from Highland Park and treaded having my wife try to navigate through Chicago traffic. Mike offered to drive the truck 55 miles south so we could avoid the traffic. That gesture made the deal happen. I trade every 65 miles and I will be back. Thank you.

A dealership you can trust
I was looking for a specific car that was at this CarMax. Problem was that I live in Minnesota, not Chicago and would have to traveling a great distance for a car I had not seen other than in pics, potentially risking wasting a great deal of time and money. I had to trust Jonathan, my salesman, to tell me the condition of the car where the pics could not. He was completely honest and the car was exactly what he said it was. Between Jonathan and Adam, the sales manager i was able to close the deal and drive back to home within an hour. I am completely pleased with the car and 100% satisfied with the dealership. I guess you can trust a car dealership. I did and they did not let me down. Thanks guys.

We really appreciated how dedicated the staff at Huntley Ford were. We spoke on the phone and visited to check out a few vehicles with Daniel. He was very patient and wonderful to work with. Although we didn't purchase a car during our visit, we would recommend that anyone visits the dealer for a great experience.
