Jacky Jones Lincoln Gainsville GA

The guys over at Jacky Jones are some of the most polite, friendly laid back guys i've ever met at a dealer. Zero pressure from them. It's the way buying a car should be.

Ya don't find too many dealerships like that any longer. Maplecrest in Union, NJ, is also a good place to deal with. Some of the "new" sales people have to learn to be more laid back,,but for the most part, all is fine, especially service dept and advisors.

Billy Howell in Cumming, GA is also great. Small hometown dealers rock.

Billy Howell is great for sales, but I'd rather be hit by a truck than go there for service again.

Well, I don't have anything pleasant to say about Billy Howell Ford. Mr Howell himself, nicest guy in the world. His son, not the brightest bulb on the tree. He's managing to destroy everything his dad built in 1/10th the time. Sad thing is, I live less than 2 miles from them and I can't buy anything with them. They are constantly $2-$4k higher than other local dealers, and they won't back off those absurd prices. I tried to buy an edge from them, but they want $33k for what other dealers are selling for $28k. (and I mean identical vehicles down to the color......like they both were 2013, both were CPO's, had the exact same option groups, everything perfectly matched) Same thing happened several years ago when I was trying to buy a new Explorer. They had a "program" car, it was actually the one Mr Howell drove I think. 7800 miles on it, they wouldn't back a dime off of $2k under sticker. And they insulted me on the offer they gave me for my trade......it's actually quite amusing truthfully. I was trading in a 2004 Explorer Limited V8 AWD and trying to get into a 2008 Explorer V8 2wd. I said I had to have V8. They were like, man V8's are really high right now and hard to get. Then no more than an hour later they were ball busting low on the value of mine. So I said, if V8's are so hard to get and so high then why bust my balls with a crappy low offer? It instantly went up $2k when he realized his own stupidity. I still didn't buy there, mainly on principle. And the service Department, wow I could go on for hours about that. I leased a 2005 Aviator brand new back in 05. It leaked oil until 4 years later when I turned it in. They had it in there enough I could have returned it on the lemon law. The problem with that place is simple. Bill Howell, Mr Howell's son. He's a cheap @$$ that tries to run the place on the thinnest possible expenses. Bought a new Lincoln eh! Take it in for service under warranty and they'll happily put you in a Taurus base model for a week. You want a Lincoln loaner you say? Sorry, they don't do that. It's really sad to, they have some really good quality sales people. Anyway, I could go on all night about them. It hasn't gotten any better in the last few years, and I don't find it likely to either. If you wanna see what I mean on pricing, look at the white 2013 Edge Sport they have on the lot. It's a used model, got to have a good few miles on it as it has a set of half worn down Pirelli's on it. Their price? $39,999.

Car buyers have choices these days. The NEW Howell Ford will not last much longer doing business screwing customers. Goog luck to you guys.
