Born in Ybor City. Graduated from Brewster Tech Auto Shop 1962. My first job out of high school was at Ferman Chevrolet as a mechanic. I worked for Bill Currie Ford as a mechanic for 5 years. I owned and operated a service station and auto repair center on the corner of West Shore Blvd and Kennedy Blvd in Tampa for 26 years. Then I grew up to be a car salesman and have worked for Ferman for the past 28 years and counting.

I am a Buick person having had several including three or four classics so Buick is the name of the game. Ron greeted us as if we'd known each other for years and as we spoke it was easy to communicate with him our Needs & Wants. When it came time on Monday to purchase the vehicle Ron had to step out for a short time to take care of Family Matters but left us in the capable hands of Tony. Although it took a period of time to complete the lease it was taken care of in a professional manner and is expedient as possible. I can't say enough for Ron and Tony as they are the face of the dealership that you see when you come to the dealership. I will recommend Ferman Buick to all of my friends who are in the market for a new or used vehicle. More

Ferman Lost Another 880+ Credit Sale Tony was working with me on a 2016 Buick Encore. Military month, 7 time previous Ferman customer elsewhere, 880+ Credit Score, once again a Ferman De Tony was working with me on a 2016 Buick Encore. Military month, 7 time previous Ferman customer elsewhere, 880+ Credit Score, once again a Ferman Dealership wanted to make too much money on the deal. 4 other Buick dealerships in the area beat their price easily, not even close. Tony was a good guy but was just repeating what his " Unnamed Sales Manager" told him to say, sorry Tony!!!!!!! Please go to Rivard Buick GMC in Brandon and ask for Jeff Slaybaugh, Sales Person & Eric Judd, Sales Manager. They are 5 Star Customer Service and will definitely take GREAT CARE of you More

Stellar Service Knew exactly what I wanted when I arrived at the dealership. The atmosphere was clean, warm, and welcoming. Everyone greeted you with a smile. My appo Knew exactly what I wanted when I arrived at the dealership. The atmosphere was clean, warm, and welcoming. Everyone greeted you with a smile. My appointment was with this awesome guy, Tony Parrado. Tony's knowledge and professionalism was top notch. He went above and beyond to make sure I was getting a great deal, and happy with my purchase. I was in awe of his portfolio, and the years of service with Ferman. Steve Stewart who handled my financing, was pleasant to talk with, and has a wonderful personality. Steve made sure I understood all the documents that I had to sign, and was very patient. Tony and Steve is the epitome of great customer service. Not once did either of them try to haggle me. They both made sure I was satisfied at the end of the day. Deborah Brooks More
