Randall Reed's Planet Ford

We shopped the Humble store during a "Red Tag" sale. Truck came equipped with all the trinkets, it was a platinum with a lift kit. Price was $57, 000. Once we got paperwork signed(wife signed) I n sale. Truck came equipped with all the trinkets, it was a platinum with a lift kit. Price was $57, 000. Once we got paperwork signed(wife signed) I noticed the extra $14, 000. I went to them and they say too bad you already signed. I showed them sticker, paperwork, red tag sale price, etc. they told me I could have made that at home. I'm attempting to file a suit against them but that takes time and money. The GM Chuck Kramer just swept it under the rug and says "we did nothing wrong so go ahead and sue us". They lie, sneak, and worst of all they advertise that 100% customer satisfaction. Who buys an F-150 for $75, 000???? No one in the world would. More

I was very unhappy with our purchase. At first we got the run around about how much we would be approved for and they told us to take the truck we wanted but only to be told that we were not approved for it run around about how much we would be approved for and they told us to take the truck we wanted but only to be told that we were not approved for it and would have to pick out another vehicle. We did and they tacked on 2k to the sale price and called it a acquisition fee lol and i verified with the bank and there was no such thing. THEN on top of that they charged 199 for "Consumer benefit package" for a oil change, wipers and flush and said its standard on all cars whether you want it or not AND 399 for etching and insurance in case the vehicle gets stolen! I ALREADY PAY FOR VEHICLE INSURANCE. These guys are a rip off and I will NEVER recommend this dealership. More

These guys seemed to go out of their way to conform to every negative used car salesman stereotype. I never write business reviews bad or good but this was absolutely the worst car shopping experience of every negative used car salesman stereotype. I never write business reviews bad or good but this was absolutely the worst car shopping experience of my life. I cannot caution strongly enough against ever doing business with them because you will most certainly regret it if you do. More

I did not buy a vehicle here, but I can tell you it would be the second to last place I would look for another Ford (Kinsel Ford-Beaumont being the very last). in my opinion, Planet Ford ("PF") is not the pl be the second to last place I would look for another Ford (Kinsel Ford-Beaumont being the very last). in my opinion, Planet Ford ("PF") is not the place you go if you are an educated person looking to make an educated decision. On day 1, I arrived in person and asked for someone REALLY knows something about the Ford super duties. Instead of leading me to such a person and perhaps working the deal jointly, the salesperson (Harold) represented that he was just such a person. However, he did not have a clue regarding facts that a person who actually knows about a vehicle would know. For example, he had no idea how much the disel emissions fluid ("DEF") costs, how far the truck can generally travel on a tank of DEF, etc.--nor did he offer to go find someone who did. However, Harold was a very nice salesperson and permitted me to inspect and drive an F-250 and an F-350. He was also very understanding with my intent to just use the experience as information-gathering. On day 2 of my experience, I traded a couple of phone calls with Harold, and I told him I would get pre-approval for a loan, line up insurance, etc. and call him back Monday. On Day 4 (Monday), I called the dealership three times, leaving messages for Harold. No response. On Day 5, I leave one more message. No response. On day 6 (Wednesday), I give up on PF and go to a competing Ford dealership. As I am working with them that day, I contact a sales manager directly at PF, who tells me that Harold has been fired (although later, another representative informed me that Harold quit, so who knows). Of course, none of the operators or other employees I spoke with on Monday and Tuesday told me that. This manager says that he will call me in 15 minutes. 30 minutes go by and still no phone call. So, I called PF again, and again I asked for a sales person who knows about Ford super duties. The operator just sends me to a random sales person. Again, I ask the salesperson for someone who knows about Ford super duties, and he says that he is such a person. This second salesperson knows that I am not just a "cold call" because I told him I had been in there with Harold and that I had spoken to the manager. This second salesperson keeps calling me by the wrong name ("Mike" and my name is "Ben") and promises to get me stock numbers on trucks that he thinks may possibly work. I never ask for promises over the phone, and I think that is fair. This second salesperson says he will in just a few minutes, and hours later I finally get them--after numerous additional requests. This second salesperson also tells me that he does not think it will be possible to work the numbers like I want. This actually suits me fine because I appreciate his honesty. After all, I don't have an issue with someone saving me hours of my time by just being upfront with me. Had our relationship ended there, I would not be writing this. But it is what comes next that warrants attention. Following the second salesperson's candid (and highly appreciated comment), I continue to work with the PF competitor and we come to terms on the numbers I wanted. I contacted the second salesperson at PF and thanked him for his candid remarks and informed him that I had reached a deal with the competitor and would just go that route. Suddenly, it was no longer impossible to reach my numbers. All I needed to do was drive all the way across town and give PF a shot in person. I thought about it long and hard and the cheapskate in me really contemplated going just in case I could actually beat the deal I already had. With all the red flags already raised, I decided to stick with what I had gotten, which is actually a very good deal. After all, one in the hand is worth two in the bush. Plus, based on the fact that PF had already stated they could not reach my figures, I determined that wasting four hours there would have been an exercise in futility. The reason I am giving PF a bad rating can be summed as follows: (1) when I asked for a salesperson with a particular knowledge regarding the product I did not get it; (2) when the salesperson I was working with quit/was fired, no one bothered to tell me voluntarily or when I called the dealership asking to speak with him; (3) my second salesperson was way to "wheeler-dealer" for me even though he initially (and probably honestly) said that PF would not be able to do the deal; and (4) the failure of PF employees to make call-backs and to supply information in the time frames promised. It's simply not a place I would risk using to make a $50,000+ automobile purchase. More

I was contacted by phone by a female to let me know the vehicle I was looking for was in. Was told the price on the internet was negotiable and they will work with me. After driving all the way out there, vehicle I was looking for was in. Was told the price on the internet was negotiable and they will work with me. After driving all the way out there, the salesmanager wanted to give me nothing for trade-in, way less than blue book and said they would not negotiate price of the vehicle!!! The time I had spent there was a waste. They did not want my business as they were so busy and I guess it didn't matter to them. I was very dissapointed and received way better treatment elsewhere!

The worst car buying experience I have ever had. Planet Ford are huge crooks. Planet Ford will end up with the same results as the old Landmark dealership. The whole process from the bait and switch at Ford are huge crooks. Planet Ford will end up with the same results as the old Landmark dealership. The whole process from the bait and switch at the start to all the hidden fees at the end. If you love to waist time planet ford is your place. Andy More
