Used cars for sale near Fort Thompson, SD under $30,000

My family and I were on our way home to Phoenix from a road trip to visit my sister in St. Paul, MN. As we were driving down the I-90W near Chamberlain, a fairly large deer decided to play 'Chicken' with my 2008 Nissan Armada. Neither party walked away from the duel; the deer still lays on the side of the road near mile marker 265 and the Armada was towed to a towing facility not more than 500 yards from the site of the incident. It was 3am and so the local police dropped me and my family off at the hotel and I filed my claim with the insurance company (Metlife). In the morning I woke up and called a local body shop to have them go inspect my vehicle to see if they could get us back on the road; fortunately or unfortunately the body shop suggested the car was a total loss. I spoke with an adjuster at Metlife and asked them some very important questions: 1. What do I do about a rental car? 2. What do I do about my luggage? 3. What do I do about my Cargo Carrier (metal basket that connects via my towing hitch receiver)? The adjuster informed me that I was more than 30 miles from the nearest rental car company they worked with so I was on my own there. They suggested I find a rental car that would suit our needs (7 people and a bunch of luggage) and they would cover up to $40/day for 30 days. Other than that they'd send out an appraiser in the next couple of days and let me know if they'd pay to fix it or pay me for the loss of the vehicle. Every rental car company I spoke with (hundreds of miles from me) told me they would not let me attach my cargo carrier to any of their vehicles and the best they could do for me was get me a minivan, which would hold the family but not our luggage - highway yard sale perhaps? uggh. :( Here I sit 200 miles from the nearest town with a rental car company, with five young children who are sick of eating from the gas station next to the hotel, with no means of transportation, and no plan in site. I was literally in tears...the night before the police officer and the hotel clerk had suggested I contact the local car dealer because he had been known to help people out. They each wrote down Willrodt Ford and the phone number on separate sticky notes - so I pulled one out of my pocket and dialed the number. A gentleman answered the phone and within two minutes told me that he'd have someone at the hotel shortly to bring me by the dealership and see what could be done. I got to the dealership and explained my situation to Pat - he pointed to a Chevy Suburban that would seat my family and had a tow hitch!! In less than five minutes I was in the Suburban driving back to our hotel to show my wife the car. I was extremely nervous but the vehicle seemed to drive well and my wife said it would work. I went back to the dealership and told them I was nervous about the vehicle and asked if they minded that I have it looked at by a local mechanic - they said no problem and let me drive away again! I was able to get my stuff out of my wrecked vehicle, feed my children, and load our stuff from the hotel into the Suburban...without every signing a thing. I called around to some mechanics asking them to do a look-over and when they heard I was buying from Willrodt they agreed to test drive it but said, "Those guys are reputable. I've never seen them steer anyone wrong and I think you'll be fine driving it to Phoenix." I was shocked so I called the next nearest car dealership and they said almost the same thing. I made up my mind to buy the vehicle. The paperwork process took about 15 minutes and I paid about half of what I expected to pay for a comparable vehicle. Willrodt Ford turned a dire situation into a solved situation (we even made it to Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse!!) and really helped my family out. I'm not sure I'll ever be in South Dakota again but if I were a resident I wouldn't buy my vehicles anywhere else. Great guys -- I cannot say enough to express my thanks.

I was searching for a specific vehicle and I found a few on cars.com. 2020 F-150 Super Cab 2.7L Ecoboost, 10 speed transmission. At first I was concerned since I've never had a truck with a small V6. I was looking for good HP and good MPG. I liked the sporty trim STX look. Great acceleration and great MPG. Much better than my previous 2006 F-150 5.4L, which was a great truck, but it was time for a change. I do recommend this vehicle if you want MPG, power, and great towing capacity.

Best experience ever!!! I talked to Jesse phone and then met with Harlan when I was there. I was literally there for 30 minutes and everything was done. I will be back for my next deal!!! Worth the drive!

This is my first Jeep I have ever owned. I always liked the looks of the Grand Cherokee. I’m happy with the vehicle. No complaints except it does like to drink gasoline. My previous 4 vehicles were all 8 cylinder full size pickup trucks. The Jeep being a 6 cylinder eats more gas. The Other than that, I’m very happy with my purchase of my 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Good looks, drives well, comfortable and safe.

Excellent from sales to service. Best deals in the Chamberlain/Oacoma area. Well worth the drive.

2021 LT Trail Boss has great styling, powerful engines, and tons of technology in a great package. A commanding view of the road, a nice comfortable interior, amazing Bose Stereo system, tons of storage and tons of space for adults in the crew cab. But there are issues, side mirrors are too small, harsher ride (which I expected), and DFM, GDI engines, and questions on the 10 speed transmissions. I recommend disabling DFM ASAP or using the L9 trick to overide the system, to help prolong the life of the engines from lifter failure. Mine is under warranty for another 18K miles, if it acts up at all its into the dealership for warranty service.

Had the truck, a Tradesman, 3-years and not a single problem with it, besides what the previous owner did. They put leveling blocks on it and big tires that made it ride like a dump truck. Plenty of power with the 6.4l. Very reliable.

I found exactly the car we wanted using Cars.com, and we contacted the dealership to inquire about it. Jesse was great to work with, and he met me halfway from Denver in Nebraska to make the deal. It was a good buying experience. :)

The vehicle was great EXCEPT for the shifter which was the worst type EVER that GM designed!! I had family that could not figure out how to use it!!

The 2019 Grand Cherokee Limited was the Jeep I had my eye on for a while. I've owned a 2012 Laredo X, and a 2018 Limited Anniversary/Heritage Edition. I was specifically looking for Limited trim without the 20" rims, although, I love the look of the Altitude versions, I just didn't really care/want to deal with less side-wall, nicer-looking rims. I avoided the Overland and Trailhawk because of the air-suspension. Overall the interior is fine, it's comfortable and familiar for me, since I've owned them before, but that's also the only issue/complaint I would have. The interior is updated from the 2012, however, basically it's a very light update, U-Connect, Gauges, Shifter, and possibly a few other items here and there. But essentially, the dashboard is the same dashboard I've seen since 2012. While owning the previous (2) I never experienced any mechanical issues that left me stranded. One had a weird issue with blowing lights in the tailgate, but it would just randomly decide to burn out, replace one it would blow another. No other major issues. The 2019 leather on the steering wheel feels smooth and buttery like they always have. The suspension feels great, still solid and tight. Brakes are strong and grippy, pedal feel is nice and firm. So far I'm super satisfied with this Jeep, I got the perfect combination of all the features I wanted, Memory Seats, Sunroof, power trunk, heated-seats and wheel. Not sure if I'd be willing to sell this one and get a newer model, but, I'd possibly get another WK2.

Driving cross country with my son, who was moving to Iowa from Washington state. His 2002 Toyota with 200K + gave up on I90 on the Missouri bridge and he had to be towed to a shop. Willrodt Ford was the only shop in Chamberlin that would make time to look at it. Got there and could plainly see the cracked engine block. Patrick in sales did a great job working with us in my son's budget and set him up in used car that my son now loves. No high pressure sales, no unpleasantness, got back on the road and finished the trip in a lot nicer car than we started in. Only slight delay was they wanted to to a full lube and oil before we drove off. If they weren't so far from Seattle, I'd be looking there for my next car too.

It's the very last body on frame bullet proof SUV. It's built like a tank is great for all types of driving situations and here in Illinois where the roads are almost as terrible as it's governor it needs to be ready to drive over potholes the size of Pritzkers rear end and handle it. I've had no problems and plan on holding onto it especially now that Toyota has taken a turn for the worse with garbage 4 cylinder turbos.

So far its been a good vehicle. It's drives and handles well. Safety features excellent. Gas mileage excellent. Hugs the road good. I like the camera in rearview mirror.

Jesse was great. I received HD video and precise photos of every single thing I requested. He made sure I was aware of all of the imperfections before I traveled 1,100 miles to be surprised. Top notch service.

Best car I've ever owned! I've driven multiple luxury vehicles, and nothing handles better than my Stelvio. It's zippy, yet smooth. The A/C is the best I've ever experienced in a vehicle, the CarPlay is never finicky, and it is always such a relaxing drive (even in Houston traffic). I test drove a couple before I purchased, and I've never seen a model that was so consistent across all of their vehicles. I have had no major issues with this car, and it is severely underrated!

Bought this car in 2017 for $6500. It had 86k miles. Currently its at 188k miles. Never changed the transmission oil. Other than regular maintenance I've only had to change the radiator, water pump, the struts and the coils twice. I will be changing the axles , front shocks and the valve cover. Car has been good to me. I thought the CVT would have given out by now with all the stories I've heard about them. Car is slow. Back seats are uncomfortable. MPG isn't the best for a 4cyl. Plenty of leg room and trunk space. If you can get one with less than 120k miles for cheap and you have a reliable and affordable mechanic take the risk. Worst case scenario you burn 3-4 thousand dollars. best case scenario you have 5-10 years of a reliable car without a car payment and you save on car insurance.

We drove two states over to McKenzie Buick GMC in Milton, FL to meet with Nick and make a purchase on our new Yukon Denali. Customer service was top notch. We were going for their 2019 Yukon Denali to replace a 2008 Tahoe LTZ. We are very pleased with the vehicle. The upgrades are wonderful. Love the cooling seats, the wifi, the HUD and even days after our purchase they have reached out to check on how we were and mailed us a small gift that meant so much. We will definitely use them again if they ever have what we’re looking for on a future purchase. - Brandon Howell 2019 Yukon Denali

I would recommend this car to someone who specifically wanted a performance-oriented car. If I had to do over again I may not purchase it. Simply for the road noise and harshness. And the 19-in wheels. The tires are very hard to find and of course the car comes without a spare. I've been stranded twice already.

We have liked the Toyota Sienna so much, this is the 2nd one we purchased and each one we owned and never experienced any out of the ordinary problems. Great family vehicle.

I love my Chevy Trax I bought it in 2023 its a 2024 it drives good get awesome gas mileage drove from Oregon to Oklahoma and back and one more time to Oklahoma no brake dows yes its lower to the crowd but for me its perfect to get in and out It has a lot of room in back seat and back of car for shopping It only hat one problem the Moniterscreen whent out but the Recall fixt it

My 2024 Maverick Lariat has the FX4 Off Road Package and the 4K Towing Package. It is one year old today and has 2,700 miles on it. It has been flawless without even a single rattle or annoyance. The Off Road package is very capable and it made 13 off road adventures to the ocean beaches this past summer.

Strong little truck, great off road, and great gas mileage. Superior towing compared to my 2019 Taco. If you need a mid size truck that is actually a truck the Ranger will be great for you.

Got the Duramax Sierra SLT crew cab with pretty much all the options, I’ve tried other trucks and currently have a 2007 Chevy Duramax and it turned me to GM from the ford and dodge diesels I’ve driven/owned in the past. Blows my mind with all the options, super comfortable and rides quite nice for a truck.

Needs oil filter conversion so oil doesn't drain back, Google it..good power, goes anywhere , better than the 2 door for smoother ride,, I would buy again

This car is wider than other minivans, providing more space and legroom for the kids. It drives ultra smooth and is super comfortable. Only complaint is that there is only 1 built in USB port and is located in the glove compartment.

I would recommend vehicle purchase from this company to all my friends. JR Castillo gave me awesome service and was very friendly he was more than willing to help. This vehicle meets all my needs. Comfortable and spacious. Excellent for carrying my wood supplies!
