Bad news....I had a crack in the engine, however, the good news was that it was still under the power train warranty. Tucker made the unpleasant process of having a car in the shop so so much better by his confident reassurance and attention. He is an absolute gem to the service department!!! Thank you so much, Tucker Anderson! More

Helpful Sales personnel We had some experience with the dealer through the body shop and some work done on my wife's car last year. That experience led me to believe I could We had some experience with the dealer through the body shop and some work done on my wife's car last year. That experience led me to believe I could expect decent treatment if they reflected the entire organization. Went looking to replace a vehicle that I lost in an accident. Was looking for a hatchback and had eye on Focus hatch. Was met at curb by Lee who introduced himself, asked some questions to determine my interest and proceeded to show me and my wife some of the Focus models. When he determined what i was trying to replace, he recommended I look at the C-Max. I had seen it on-line, but wasn't sure it was what I wanted. After seeing the features and driving it, I was impressed. I left with a good feeling about Lee, the dealership and the car. Although it too a while for me to be able to make the purchase, he never pushed and was courteous through the entire process. Long story short...I purchase the C-Max and so far it is everything I thought it would be. More

Service appointment for 140,000 miles My great experience began with Tucker Anderson welcoming me to the Service Center this morning. He was extremely friendly, polite, and professional d My great experience began with Tucker Anderson welcoming me to the Service Center this morning. He was extremely friendly, polite, and professional despite the center being short a person checking customers in for their appointments. He did a very thorough job explaining the options I had for various services recommended at this mileage. He saved me money by subtracting the costs associated with anything I had recently had done for my automobile. Throughout the time I was at the dealership, he kept me informed of their progress and any issues they found that might need to be addressed. The rear brake pads needed replacing and he accompanied me into the billing office to be sure they set up an appointment for me ASAP to get that taken care of. He explained in advance, the estimated costs for today's visit and also gave me an estimate for the brake pads. Every step of the way, I knew exactly what to expect. I found the price for the quality of the work done to be an exceptional value. Tucker has a terrific attitude. I appreciate his positive outlook, even when he is under pressure. This is the second time I have brought my car to Gary Smith Ford for servicing since moving back to this area the end of 2013. Both experiences have been excellent. I highly recommend Gary Smith Ford for their superb friendly customer service, their professional expertise and exemplary quality of work, and for their reasonable prices for parts and labor. More

Great Service I got the car in Crestview but their service is poor. So I only go to Ft Walton & have Andy take care of any service & maint. needs. I got the car in Crestview but their service is poor. So I only go to Ft Walton & have Andy take care of any service & maint. needs. More

Never had much luck with them in the 80's. Wanted to order a new 4x4 truck in 88. They wanted $14,000 WITH ZERO OPTIONS. Got a truck in Sylacauga, Alabama WITH OPTIONS for around $12,800. Tried a mustan order a new 4x4 truck in 88. They wanted $14,000 WITH ZERO OPTIONS. Got a truck in Sylacauga, Alabama WITH OPTIONS for around $12,800. Tried a mustang purchase there another time.WANTED LIST PRICE PLUS TAX. Told me and this was the salesman's words, "We can get list price from the local military dudes." I got one at Hub City not at list price, premium package, shadow gray GT. NOW...Years later I give GSF another shot A FEW WEEKS AGO. A+ for trying to get me financed at a bad time. Not a credit issue, budget issues. Wanted the 2001 Ford 4x4. Was told by salesperson that they don't hold cars for anyone. Better buy ASAP. Okay...the Ford 4x4 I wanted was held for someone else for days without a "hold sign" hanging on the mirror. Wouldn't sell it to me. They apparently do hold cars for SOMEBODY. So I ended up just paying cash for a Colorado 4x4. The morning before I picked it up I emailed them that a tire was low. PLEASE attend to that before I buy it. Made the assumption that they did. Stupid on me for that, lol. Out in the "ice storm" I pulled a huge nail out and plugged the tire MYSELF. (Fortunately I keep a plug kit, a little air pump, AND A FREAKING ARCTIC PARKA in my truck). Okay...I could sugar coat all this and lie and be totally sweet but I've been truthful. But, and it's a big BUT. I did see much improvement over the past GSF I've experienced. No arrogance or thumbing of the nose like from the past because they knew they could sell some airman a car at a high price and didn't need my business. Shannon Pangburn is a gem, Mark Gudinez, and Tanner (I hope I've got your name right Tanner, can't find your card) were all very nice and wonderful to work with and really tried to help. Kind of glad now that the financing didn't work out. Nice to have that clear title. Also thanks to John Crane for extreme effort with the finance issue... So, I apologize if I was too truthful. But I really liked the improved attitude and kindness I experienced there. I have a new 2013 Nissan I bought in June in P'cola so not in the market for a new car now. But in the future, YES, I would consider GSF an option for another car. And I would recommend GSF to others now. More
