My son’s truck broke down in the area and we had it towed
My son’s truck broke down in the area and we had it towed to this dealership for repair. From our first contact, the dealership helped to make a very stressful situation more manageable. The team received our vehicle as they were closing and helped to get us logged in and on our way. The service is excellent at this dealership! Ano led the team that repaired our vehicle. He reached out regularly with updates and provided accurate estimates for the repairs. He and the rest of team are very friendly and responsive. They also have a car rental service on site. I will be connecting with this dealership on future purchase and service needs.

I love the Napleton-Libertyville guys!
I love the Napleton-Libertyville guys! Rich was our sales guy. He was so easy going, listened to what we wanted and made suggestions without being pushy. He helped us get the best deal! Bob made the finance process run smoothly and took the time to walk through all our questions and concerns while also being mindful of our time. Overall, I’m very impressed with the customer service at Napleton

The team at Gordie Boucher Ford of Kenosha is
The team at Gordie Boucher Ford of Kenosha is professional, gracious and extremely dedicated to the customer. Our Sales rep Terryn was very helpful and went above and beyond to make sure the whole car buying experience was an excellent one. Terryn provided a flawless experience with consistent communication, follow ups, providing videos and info of the vehicle and even going out of his way to not just make the sale, but instead check to see if I was satisfied with the truck and the process. Most car dealers and Sales reps don't have that genuine sense of customer rapport or high level of service quality standards. But Terryn and the team at Gordie Boucher have exactly that. I recommend anyone to visit this dealership and see for yourself!

We just purchased our fourth car with Don DiPaulo at
We just purchased our fourth car with Don DiPaulo at Wickstrom, and that alone says everything. Don is incredibly trustworthy, professional, and genuinely wonderful to work with. He makes the entire car-buying process easy, straightforward, and stress-free every single time. We never feel pressured—only supported and confident that we’re getting exactly what’s right for us. If you’re looking for someone you can truly trust when buying a vehicle, I highly recommend Don. We wouldn’t go anywhere else.
