Found the exact Mustang GT I was looking for at
Found the exact Mustang GT I was looking for at AutoNation Ford and reached out to the online Chat Person. They referred me to Christian Rodriquez and from there his attentiveness and ability to answer all my questions by text message had me sold on buying from the dealership. He was honest and upfront about price, etc. And unlike a salesman I had dealt with at another Metroplex Dealership, he was well versed in both the car he was selling and seemed to really want to sell the car. The dealership overall did a great job with the sales process and had the car ready for me when we drove up to buy it (even thought we hadn't committed to buying it / debating a different color). If you are looking to buy a Ford, reach out to Christian and the others at AutoNation in Ft. Worth.

My experience at Autonation FORD was absolutely wonderful, all thanks to Hillard ?Jay? Jones. From the warm check-in to a clear, no-surprise estimate, every part of the process was done with professionalism and genuine care. The use of authentic parts and prompt service kept my car looking spotless, and I appreciated the helpful summary after the service. The cozy lounge and Jay?s courteous follow-up made me feel truly appreciated. They treat their customers like family, and I highly recommend them!

Amazing purchase experience
I found a truck on cars.Com and did the normal thing sending a request to ensure it was available. Mel reached out to me via an email message and mentioned that he would contact me later in the day. He called me later that afternoon. After that very calm conversation, he gave me very solid reassurances that a different Ford dealership had lied to me about some things.. I already had pre approved financing at my credit union, so this was a fairly straight forward process. Mel made this process so easy. I'm not a youngster with no experience. I know how this process should go. This was not my first truck buying experience. Mel is a true professional and an asset to not only his profession, but to Five Star Ford. He's a rare find in this industry. This was the easiest and most positive truck buying experience in my life! Thank you to Mr. Melvin Seibel!
