A huge Thank you to our Salesman Wilson Brown for making
A huge Thank you to our Salesman Wilson Brown for making things super easy and had us in and out in a little over 2 hours and the detailing took a hour of that. If you are looking for a new ford at a great deal check them out and ask for Wilson Brown or if he isn’t available ask for Gavin Gilligan who was super to talk to while we waited. So if you want a Great dealership with the lowest pricing and great selection in the DMV check our Ourisman Ford in manassas

Ford Bronco Sport - Great Deal Made Easy
From parking my trade in to pulling out of the lot with our new car the process was fast, friendly and efficient. My salesman Desmond Drummond was great to work with and knowledgeable about the vehicles. They gave me full CarMax price on the trade upfront which was great. I despise haggling about that. The finance office was great too! Highly recommend this dealership!

Bryce Do was very helpful, and patient with me during our
Bryce Do was very helpful, and patient with me during our 7 month interaction between me starting to think about replacing my old truck, and finally, last minute, like phone call, "I'm on the way!" at 5 pm on a holiday. He showed me the vehicles I was considering and showed me how the features worked. The only detraction from my experience was in the finance department where they didn't honor the price on the website, and I paid more than I expected to when going in.

We had the best experience working with Michael Zeller
We had the best experience working with Michael Zeller for our car purchase. Michael was amazingly knowledgeable, helpful, and found us the unicorn car that check all our checkboxes (including price). I highly recommend working with Sheehy of Gaithersburg and especially if you are lucky enough, having Michael Zeller as your sales associate.

I had an outstanding out-of-state purchase experience
I had an outstanding out-of-state purchase experience with Ourisman Ford of Manassas. Ron Guzman and Elijah Conner made the entire process seamless—professional, attentive, and genuinely committed to getting the deal done right. From start to finish, everything was clear, straightforward, and pressure-free. Their top priority was delivering a great vehicle with exceptional service, and they absolutely delivered.

I am again impressed by Sheehy.
I am again impressed by Sheehy. I have purchased 2 cars from their Subaru dealership. I wanted to try something new. Maxx Manu at their Springfield Ford did not disappoint. He provided the warm welcome and lissltened to my concerns and and budget to find the right car. I'll be back to see Maxx again and I would recommend him to anyone!
