Russell & Smith Ford

I had very specific needs/requests for a car that I hoped to get at a price I could afford. Ms. Ford was a great representative - she listened to what I was looking for in a car, worked with me on the pri to get at a price I could afford. Ms. Ford was a great representative - she listened to what I was looking for in a car, worked with me on the price and my trade in, and was there with a big smile to demonstrate the new car and to answer any questions I had. Russell and Smith has been a good car shopping experience. Ms. Ford made it even better! More

Working with Dave Ulrich was a real pleasure. He listened to me from the beginning and did his best to meet my needs. He really tried to understand what I wanted and why. He didn't push things I didn't want to me from the beginning and did his best to meet my needs. He really tried to understand what I wanted and why. He didn't push things I didn't want but made sure I was aware of what was available. I bought my new Fusion Hybrid using the X plan so price wasn't a real issue. I had a small problem after I took delivery (completely my fault) but Dave drove across town to help me and I was on my way in five minutes. I didn't expect that. Dave took his time to answer my questions. Unlike many dealers he let me take a real test drive to make sure I would be happy with the car. The paperwork went quickly and smoothly (I didn't finance) and there was no pressure to buy all of the extras that I have experienced at other dealers. I was going to visit another dealer until I read the reviews here about Russell-Smith Ford. The ratio of positive to negative was better than the other dealers I was considering so I decided to visit Russell-Smith first. I am so glad I did. Overall, this was one of the best buying experiences I have had. I would definitely recommend that you see Dave Ulrich if you are in the market for a Ford. More

In 40 years of experience with car dealerships, my recent purchase of a 2010 Ford Focus at Russell-Smith was the most comfortable and least painless ever. Hunter Kelly and David Aguirre went out of their wa purchase of a 2010 Ford Focus at Russell-Smith was the most comfortable and least painless ever. Hunter Kelly and David Aguirre went out of their way to make sure I, as a single older lady, had all of the facts necessary to make my decision. They walked me through the purchase process, delivery, and rapid correction of a major misunderstanding (mine). Hunter and David answered my numerous questions with patience and complete knowledge, particularly when I wan't sure of the correct questions to ask about the latest technology--i.e., Sync and Sirius. I would recommend Russell & Smith Ford to any car buyers in the Gulf Coast area, and I absolutely love my new Ford Focus! More

We had done our research and needed to test drive the Fusion Hybrid and other cars to make a final decision. Morgan was not pushy and understood that we had other vehicles to drive for comparison. As w Fusion Hybrid and other cars to make a final decision. Morgan was not pushy and understood that we had other vehicles to drive for comparison. As we were leaving, he gave us his card and told us to call with any questions and feel free to come back for another test drive. He was "confident we'd be back." After driving others that day, we called back with a couple of questions. We made an offer and told him we could be there first thing in the morning. The price was great, the car is great, the service was great. More

My wife and I had only been thinking of buying a new Ford car. I looked on the internet this morning and Mr Duca called me within a matter of minutes. We drove to the dealership and were greeted by a very fr car. I looked on the internet this morning and Mr Duca called me within a matter of minutes. We drove to the dealership and were greeted by a very friendly, knowledgeable young man. He worked with us for several hours, demonstrating the new to us "Ford Edge", working with us to answer any financial questions, questions about the vehicle itself, and the 21st Century electronics this car contains. When all of the paper work was completed, Carlos went over the radio, blue tooth, etc, etc. All of a sudden I realized I was an old man and could only absorb so much in this long day. We do have enough information so we can "Play" with these great toys over the weekend, and we have made an appointment for 11AM, Monday to have Carlos review theses systems with us, and to answer any other questions we may have. Over the last 55+ years of driving, I have purchased many new automobiles. Todays experience rates very highly. I am satisfied we chose the right dealership, and am convinced the staff is well trained and dedicated. More

Richard helped with our financing paperwork. He was so cordial, patient and helpful. When faced with what we thought could be a problem, Richard took charge and helped us through, sacrificing his time and cordial, patient and helpful. When faced with what we thought could be a problem, Richard took charge and helped us through, sacrificing his time and possible other contracts. I highly recommend visiting this dealership, and if possible requesting Richard's help with the paperwork. He was wonderful!! Kenny was our salesman, I believe from the internet group. He was so helpful! He knew so much about the products and went so far out of his way to help find the right financing options for us. He spent a good portion of his time reviewing the Sirius satellite and media components of our new truck. I truly felt like he was the most honest and respectable salesmen I have come across in the auto industry. I highly recommend him as a trustworthy and knowledgeable salesman. More

As our old cars had reached the falling apart stage we had to buy 2 new cars recently. We went for the hybrids. I work in the oil and gas industry and know full well that with China selling more new had to buy 2 new cars recently. We went for the hybrids. I work in the oil and gas industry and know full well that with China selling more new cars last year than the US that there will be tremendous stress on worldwide demand for petroleum. Prices are relatively cheap right now with the global slowdown but man I wanted a fuel efficient car. Plus it helps with abatement of anthropogenic global warming. Carlos was very knowledgeable about hybrids, shares our concern for the environment. This is why I wanted to deal with him the second time. He got sick the second time we bought a car but his team helped him with the particulars of our deal during his absence. We have had the Escape hybrid now for a little over 7 months and we have been getting 35.2 mpg during the winter driving for 2400 miles around the city. I really like that car. Without naming brand names every time I see this very little car in the school parking lot I find it funny that we are getting better mileage in an SUV rather than that particular 2 seater! My only complaint is that since Ford is pretty much able to sell all the hybrids they make they should make more of them. I wanted the intermediate option package for our new Fusion, for example, with the excellent safety equipment, but had to get the leather seats (yuk... how enviro-unfriendly) and navigation system we didn't really want.
