Akins of Winder

We were immediately put in the market for a replacement vehicle when our original car was totaled in an accident. Already under a little stress from the accident combined with a previous bad experience wi vehicle when our original car was totaled in an accident. Already under a little stress from the accident combined with a previous bad experience with a different dealership, I didn't know what to expect while visiting my local Akins dealership. I am pleased to report I had a very pleasant and stress-free experience. Alan OMaley has a very laid back approach but very knowledgeable about the products at Akins Ford. I had no idea what type of car I wanted, but I never once felt like an inconvenience to Alan as I test drove quite a few cars.....with two children in car seats!! Once we found a car that would be a suitable replacement, we were concerned about the timing of settling the accident and getting a check from our insurance company to apply to our purchase. Jason McDaniel, who also has a calming presence, assured me that timing wouldn't be an issue and I wouldn't have to worry about the car being sold out from under me pending settlement. Our family appreciates the measures Jason took to create customer loyalty, and Alan's approach to customer service. We are pleased with our "new" car and have every reason to believe it's a good product. If something unexpectedly goes wrong, we have no doubt that Akins Ford will stand behind its product and continue to provide excellent customer service. More

I have to admit, Akins of Winder was not the first dealership that I thought of going to when I decided that it was time for me to replace my car. A co-work gave me a business card for Mr.Leroy Haynes dealership that I thought of going to when I decided that it was time for me to replace my car. A co-work gave me a business card for Mr.Leroy Haynes. Her mother had just purchased a car from there. I called Mr. Haynes and told him what my needs were and what my budget was. Mr. Haynes worked with me to find me what I feel was the perfect vehicle for me. I love my New 2014 Ford Focus! Also, I can honestly say that this was the best car buying experience I have ever had. I drove away truly feeling like I received excellent service through out the entire process. The entire Akins dealership is a pleasure to be in. I would definitely recommend any one who is thinking about purchasing a vehicle to give Mr. Haynes a call. Sincerely, Mike M. Athens, Ga More

After a negative experience at our local dealership, my wife and I drove 35 miles to see the people at Akins Ford. My father and grandfather had purchased cars from them in the past 5 years and enjoyed the wife and I drove 35 miles to see the people at Akins Ford. My father and grandfather had purchased cars from them in the past 5 years and enjoyed their experience and recommended that we pay these guys a visit. We were immediately greeted by Ron and he took our concerns to heart and wasted no time getting us the best offer for our new 2014 Ford Escape. He was courteous, professional and prompt, all while juggling another potential sale. Overall the experience was the exact opposite of the previous dealership and we walked away with the car we wanted at the price we needed. If you are in the market for a new Ford, Dodge, Chrysler, or Jeep, I recommend you go see Ron at Akins Ford. You will thank yourself that you did. More

My family and I are long time customers of Akins. In fact, my parents bought my first car, a black 1981 Mustang, at this dealership. Now, over 30 years later, I found myself looking for a certified pre fact, my parents bought my first car, a black 1981 Mustang, at this dealership. Now, over 30 years later, I found myself looking for a certified pre-owned F-150 that I could use for business travel around the southeast. Hard to believe, but I actually traded in an immaculate Mercedes Benz S550 for the truck. The warranty had expired on the Benz and I just couldn't take a chance on breaking down in south Georgia on a business trip. I was also tired of high maintenance and insurance costs and I needed to cut down monthly expenses to free up dollars for other things. I am surprised at how little I miss that Benz! Anyway, based on past experience I knew where to go to find a good deal and trustworthy sales people. The 2010 red Lariat Super Crew Cab that I finally chose is just a great vehicle! With only 22,000 miles it will give me years of service. Since the cost was affordable and maintenance a priority, I purchased a Ford extended warranty and a service agreement. All told, the monthly payment is still much less than my prior note and I have no service worries at all. It truly was a team effort getting this deal done. Brad Akins, Jeff Little, Jason McDaniel and Matt Tanner in Finance all did their part. I could not be more pleased with the service I received. Great job, Akins Team! More

I was very happy with Woody Sowder and Matt Tanner. As a woman buying a car alone for the first time, I could not have been treated any better then these two treated me. I was treated with Respect and Care woman buying a car alone for the first time, I could not have been treated any better then these two treated me. I was treated with Respect and Care from the moment I walked into the Dealership until the moment I left. My questions was all answered. I left with a car I am truly happy with. The payments were what I had said I could pay each month. Woody worked hard at making sure I left with what I wanted and with no hassels. Thank you for a Great Staff. Sincerely, Maude E.

The excellent quality of the Akins' service center led me to talk with Ron Marsh in sales about the purchase of a new Ford vehicle. Ron was very knowledgeable about the Ford Edge. He took the time t led me to talk with Ron Marsh in sales about the purchase of a new Ford vehicle. Ron was very knowledgeable about the Ford Edge. He took the time to carefully explain all the features of the vehicle to us. He gave my husband and me time to ask him questions and time to inspect the vehicle without him standing over us. Ron was not a high pressured salesperson, and we appreciated that. He was very customer oriented salesman with a high degree of knowledge about all of the Ford vehicles we had questions about. More
