Worth the drive for my 2015 F-150 FX4 After an exhausting online search for the exact truck I wanted, I came across Paramount Ford. They didn't have the truck I was after, but I inquired After an exhausting online search for the exact truck I wanted, I came across Paramount Ford. They didn't have the truck I was after, but I inquired about 2 units that were pretty close. Within 10 min., I received a phone call from Michael Connell. At this point, I was frustrated with my local dealerships unwillingness to spend the time or exert the effort to find MY TRUCK, so I answered Michael's call with a bit of skepticism. He informed me that one of the units I was looking at had been sold, but the 2nd unit was available. I already had my heart set on white and the truck he had was silver and didn't have a few features that I wanted....Hmmm. At that point, I almost pulled the trigger. I told Michael that the white FX4 with the sport package just looked awesome. He immediately agreed because he owns a white 2014 FX4. I think at that point Michael understood the type of buyer I was and asked me what I wanted and he would find it. After two near misses that were out of Michael's control, he finally found my truck at a dealership in WV. The next day, I made the 2-1/2 hour drive to Paramount Ford to ink the deal. Michael was waiting outside to greet me as I arrived. First class move Michael... on top of all that, Michael offered to have my new truck delivered to me personally, to save me another 2-1/2 hour trip back to his dealership. My expectations were now officially exceeded. Thank you Michael for all of your hard work, and rest assured that I will gladly recommend you and Paramount Ford to any of my family and friends looking to buy a vehicle. More

Who actually likes shopping at car dealerships? If you’re anything like me you probably don’t like shopping for a car and having to deal with the salesmen at the dealerships. I usually do all the If you’re anything like me you probably don’t like shopping for a car and having to deal with the salesmen at the dealerships. I usually do all the research that I can online and then check out the cars on the lot when the dealerships are closed just so I won’t be bothered with the salesmen. I usually look forward to talking with a salesman about as much as I look forward to talking with my ex wife. I needed a new truck and was dreading the whole upcoming dealership experience. I’m pleased to say my dealings with Michael Connell at Paramount Ford were a pleasant experience. Last Tuesday I did a search for the truck I was looking for on the USAA Auto Buying Service website. I immediately got responses from three dealerships in the area with price quotes for a vehicle like I was searching for. None of them had what I was looking for in stock and of course all of them responded saying they had vehicles on the lot “similar” to what I was searching for. Wednesday morning I called Michael Connell at Paramount Ford as his email response to my vehicle search quoted the lowest price. I was told he was in a sales meeting and would return my call. While waiting for the return call I responded to the email from the salesman at the Hickory Ford dealership and asked for details of the truck they said was similar to what I was searching for. It’s now Friday and I’ve still received no response to my email to them. Michael returned my call and I spoke with him about what I was searching for and we arranged a meeting that afternoon so I could take a test drive. Michael showed me what Paramount Ford had on their lot that was close to what I was looking for and let me test drive one. After the test drive we went back inside the office and he searched for trucks within a 300-mile radius that met my search criteria. We came up with zero! It seemed that one of the options I desired was pretty much non-existent on any dealer lots and if I was intent on getting that particular set of options then it would have to be special ordered. We adjusted the search criteria several times and still came up with nothing that I found more desirable than what was on his lot. Michael quoted me a fair price for one of the trucks they had that actually was pretty similar to what I was looking for. I told him I’d talk it over with my wife and let him know the next day. Thursday I emailed Michael and told him we were interested in purchasing the truck if he could make the deal a little more attractive by including some options. He came through with one of the options I requested and offered to meet me half way with the other. I think that was a pretty fair response from him and I agreed to purchase the truck. Thursday afternoon I drove home with a truck I was pleased with and I purchased it for what I considered to be a fair price. To make a long story short, it was very pleasant purchasing a truck from Michael Connell at Paramount Ford. He listened to what I wanted, didn’t try to push something else on me just to make a sale and treated me with respect the entire time. I would not hesitate to contact him again to purchase another vehicle. If there was anything negative about my experience with Paramount Ford it was the Ford Credit financing. I was offered several incentives, one of them being $750 to finance with Ford Credit. Foolishly I didn’t hesitate to accept this offer as I have a great credit score and absolutely no debt so how bad could the finance rate be? Boy was I surprised when I went to sign the finance paperwork. They hit me with a whopping 5.65% finance charge on a 36-month loan. For comparison, USAA offered me 0.99% on 36 months and my credit union offers 1.75% for payroll deduction or direct transfer and 2.25% for direct pay on 36 months. Fortunately I only financed half the cost of the vehicle at this interest rate and will probably just go ahead and pay the loan off so as not to incur the finance charges resulting from the ridiculous 5.65% interest rate. This is why I give Paramount Ford a 4 out of 5 star rating. Sales gets a thumbs up but the financing gets a big thumbs down. More

Starting with the sales staff and ending with the service department it was an outstanding experience. It is a joy to deal with professionals.
