Not All Car Dealerships Are Bad!
Friday, September 19th, 2008Like you, I have had my share of bad experiences at car dealerships. But I can still say that they are not all bad. I have seen it all, dealerships that want to steel your trade, or over charge you for the vehicle you are buying. Dealerships that sell you aftermarket warranties that are not worth the paper they are written on. I have seen dealerships say they are going to pay off your trade and they never do and then sell your car to someone else. Why just in the last two years I have seen several dealerships in the South Jersey area get closed down for illegal practices. It is so true that there are some real scum bags in the dealership business.
I guess thats why I feel so compelled to tell you about a straight shooter I have had the pleasure of dealing with for the last ten years. It’s the Gentilini organization about 20 minutes outside of Atlantic City NJ in a small rural town called Woodbine. I started seeing their commercials about ten years ago and I thought they were kind of different. Just the owner telling you about the organization. No screaming, No yelling, No sales pitch, just plain talk. So I checked them out.
They are one of less than 50 Ford legacy dealers left. Family Owned and Operated Since 1955. They have also won the Presidents Award or it’s equivalent every year since its inception. The Presidents Award is given to less than 300 Ford Dealers a year out of over 4000 Dealers. It is awarded based on the highest customer satisfaction scores. I have been told there are less than 8 dealers in the entire nation to accomplish this. They have actually won the Presidents Award more times than most car dealerships around them have been in business!
They have a tremendous selection of vehicles, I have purchased 4 vehicles from them and they have never over promised and under delivered. If you want to deal with a straight up dealership that is in the helping business check them out at www.gentiliniford.com You won’t be sorry. By the way they ship nation wide. They also recently took over a Chevrolet franchise if Chevy’s are your thing! You can check both places out at www.gentilinimotors.com Ford or Chevy, New or Used. You won’t be disappointed.
Until next time!
