Great Customer Service I went into Shaker Ford with three things on my mind; I was certain of the car I wanted, was set on buying the car and then taking it home that same d I went into Shaker Ford with three things on my mind; I was certain of the car I wanted, was set on buying the car and then taking it home that same day. I arrived at the dealership later in afternoon (shortly before closing time) and the staff couldn't have been more accommodating. Informing me about the vehicle, letting me take it for a test drive and taking about financial options. At the end of it all the staff stayed well past the closing hours to finalize all the paper, wash the car and prepare it for me to take home that day. More
Cadillac or Lincoln? Thank you Jim Reed, I walked into Shakers Ford looking for a used vehicle. I saw 2 Lincoln MKZ's and 1 Cadillac XTS which caught my eye. Jim br Thank you Jim Reed, I walked into Shakers Ford looking for a used vehicle. I saw 2 Lincoln MKZ's and 1 Cadillac XTS which caught my eye. Jim brought me out on the 3 test drives and I was having trouble deciding between the Cadillac and 1 of the Lincolns. I brought my wife down to let her test drive the 2 of them. After a total of 5 test drives I decided on the Cadillac. Jim was very patient and could not have been easier to work with. He did not pressure me to make any decision. More

They worke We had a wonderful experience at Shaker Ford. The staff is very professional and everyone we came in contact with was extremely helpful. They worked hard to get us a great deal and we were very pleased with the end result. The whole process was painless and no pressure. I would highly recommend working with Cathy Reed or Dom Lacapra, both were super to deal with. More
Smooth and easy for an out of state purchaser Though I live in Maryland, through the internet I found the T-Bird I wanted to buy at Shaker's. First I spoke with Jim Schiavo, who recognized I was Though I live in Maryland, through the internet I found the T-Bird I wanted to buy at Shaker's. First I spoke with Jim Schiavo, who recognized I was a serious potential buyer, and that I was not going to travel to Connecticut to look at the car without some good information up front. So he got right down to business discussing everything frankly and openly, including the bottom line price. To my surprise, he said they'd pick me (and my wife) up at the airport when it came time for the visit before cementing the purchase. When I said I wanted an independent mechanic to look at the car, Jim readily agreed, and gave me several local recommendations, and I found one that suited me perfectly. Phil Rice then became involved, and over the course of the next week, Phil found answers to all of my questions (and I kept asking a lot of questions and seeking documentation!), and we were in frequent communication. Phil also took the car to the independent mechanic for the inspection, and when all the hurdles were cleared, Phil picked us up at the airport, even though the deal would not be final until I personally saw and tested the car. Phil even struggled with us and spent a lot of time on the phone with Southwest Airlines to cancel the afternoon return flight, since we did buy the car and didn't need to fly home. Everything about the car and in the process of buying it was exactly as Jim and Phil had represented, the car passed the independent inspection with flying colors, and I bought the car and drove it home to Maryland that same day. Dealing with Cindy for the final paperwork was delightful---she is capable and knowledgeable about what it takes to transport a car from Connecticut to Maryland before it is registered in Maryland. Everything went very smoothly, thanks to the competent, honest, friendly and cooperative folks at Shaker's! Thanks, everyone! Jack E. 2003 Baby blue T-Bird More

Sal's the Mover of the Shaker business!!!!!!! Not surprised Sal's review rating is a 5. He is a pure professional. He addressed my concerns with transparency,facts, and action, not talk. He is war Not surprised Sal's review rating is a 5. He is a pure professional. He addressed my concerns with transparency,facts, and action, not talk. He is warm, trustworthy, and intelligent. I bought a vehicle as a surprise for my husband and he was thoughtful enough to put me on"The do not call list" so employees wouldn't ruin the surprise. I will only recommend him to my family and friends. There may be a lot of Shakers out there, but there's only one mover. Sandy Maro More

We highly recommend Shaker Family Ford and Lincoln and will be going back to see Blair again when we decide to buy again in the future. More
