What a fantastic buying experience at Helfman Ford in TX.
What a fantastic buying experience at Helfman Ford in TX. We were shopping online, out of state purchase, and had the pleasure of working with Richard Baxley who went way above and beyond. He kept us informed during the whole process and even more important followed up diligently during the delivery and when we took possession of the vehicle. Of course he then followed up yet again. I tip my cap to the dealership and Richard on a great buying experience!

I bought a car from this dealer entirely online, and
I bought a car from this dealer entirely online, and their team went above and beyond to assist me. They helped with the inspection and even took the car to the dealership for a recall, and this happened to be for a BMW. Despite the transaction being online, they provided exceptional service by personally handling these tasks for me. I?ve already sent them both thank you's, but still their effort truly exceeded my expectations. I?ll definitely return to them for my next car purchase.

Our whole buying experience with Legacy Ford was
Our whole buying experience with Legacy Ford was phenomenal! We stated our wants and needs and they delivered flawlessly. A deal was made before we got there and they had all of the paperwork waiting and ready for us to sign. Our situation with our special needs son was met with compassion, empathy, and non judgment and we left feeling valued and respected - something of a rare occurrence. Sam was amazing to work with and was the nicest, most accommodating salesman we've had. Highly recommend him and the whole team. Thank you for giving us such a delightful experience!

Outstanding Experience with Amir at Helfman Ford!
Outstanding Experience with Amir at Helfman Ford! I recently purchased a 2024 Ford Expedition Max from Helfman Ford, and I have to give a huge shoutout to Amir for making the entire process seamless and enjoyable. From the moment I walked in, Amir was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right vehicle. He took the time to answer every question with clarity, and never once made me feel rushed or pressured. His attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction were truly impressive. What really stood out was Amir’s ability to make the experience feel personal. He listened to what I needed, offered thoughtful recommendations, and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. The Expedition Max is an incredible vehicle, and Amir made sure I drove off the lot feeling confident and excited. If you're in the market for a new Ford, I highly recommend asking for Amir at Helfman Ford. You won’t just get a great car—you’ll get top-tier service from someone who genuinely cares.

Easy and seamless car buying experience.
Easy and seamless car buying experience. We told Jonathan that we did not want to be in the dealership all day and that I have had bad experiences in the past. This was the quickest easiest car buying experience and everyone was very kind during the process. Would recommend asking for Jonathan.
