Paul best sales guy!

5 out of 5 starsby Kes on 07/31/2025

If you’re heading to the Ford dealership, do yourself a favor and ask for Paul. This guy is the real deal. From the moment I walked in, he was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. No pressure, no games — just straight-up honest service. He took the time to answer every question I had, explained all the features clearly, and made sure I felt confident in my decision. On top of that, he worked out a deal that honestly beat my expectations. You can tell Paul actually cares about the customer — not just the sale. If every dealership had someone like him, buying a car would always be this smooth. Highly recommend!

  • Good job!

    5 out of 5 starsby dapper3 on 04/04/2015

    Sal did a great job of working with us as we tried to decide on which car to buy and when. We are " A " plan so the price is set. Sal and Ed found us the best rebates and treated us like we paid sticker. What's better then that.

  • Way to go Shakers!

    5 out of 5 starsby totalpowerllc on 04/01/2015

    Recently leased a new 2015 Ford Explorer XLT for the next 36 months. We received a great deal with lots of help with choosing a used or new vehicle to suit our needs. The dealership owner took lots of time to explain the financial portion and guide us in making the best payment choice to meet our budget. Recommend them highly. Our salesman Jonathan was also a great help in getting us the interior and exterior color that we liked the best. Looking forward to our next purchase or lease
  • New purchase of MKX

    5 out of 5 starsby JC62 on 03/31/2015

    I visited Shakers on Saturday, March 28th with the intent of doing some research on an MKX SUV - not necessarily to purchase that day. I was met at the door by Bill Reed and he walked me through all the details of the vehicle. He was knowledgeable of the vehicle, extremely friendly and courteous. After taking the vehicle for a test drive I was impressed enough that I wanted to show my wife the vehicle before I made a final decision to purchase. I wasn't sure that I could bring my wife back that day because of scheduling conflicts so Bill made arrangements that I could bring the vehicle to my home so my wife could see it. Long story short, she loved the vehicle - Shakers was very aggressive with their pricing and I am the proud owner of a new MKX! Everyone I encountered throughout the process was a pleasure to work with. I would recommend Shakers dealership to anyone.
  • New used car experience!

    5 out of 5 starsby nickp3 on 03/30/2015

    I recently bought a a truck through shaker via James Cianciolo, he was pleasant, kind, knowledgeable and not the least bit pushy. James and Manny took care of me and made me truly feel like part of the family (insert family ford pun here). I would recommend this dealership in a heartbeat- definitely different from other dealerships!

  • Wonderfull Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby BonnieFL on 03/29/2015

    We were looking for certified, preowned Ford Edge. Our sales consultant was Jim Cianciolo who listened very carefully to our needs. I got my happy ending & now own a beautiful 2012 Ford Edge. Manny Pinho who handled the financial closing made it a most enjoyable experience. Great people! We will not hesitate to do repeat business. Bon F.

    Jim Reed at Shakers was so nice to deal with. No nonsense and friendly. My husband and I enjoyed the experience with buying our Fusion.

  • Nice Find

    5 out of 5 starsby daveandkristin on 03/22/2015

    I was looking for a good pre owned Nissan Xterra. I saw on line Shakers had one so I stopped in. Luckily I was greeted by Jim Reed. Jim was the salesperson that took the car in on trade and he was very helpful. Jim was able to give me a fair deal that fit my budget. I believe I made the right decision on buying the Nissan and Jim helped me along with no pressure. The new building is beautiful and comfortable. Stop by.

  • Sal was very helpful

    5 out of 5 starsby lincolnmk7 on 03/22/2015

    Sal was very interested in my driving patterns and took me a long test drive that encompassed all aspects of my daily commute. He wasn't pushy or in a hurry like most salesman. I would definitely buy another car from Sal even though Shakers is over an hour from my house. Great friendly place to buy a car.
  • Shaker Ford

    5 out of 5 starsby Sbanks7190 on 03/17/2015

    I was very pleased with the quality of service I received when purchasing my car through Cathy Reed at Shaker Ford. Her and Cindy worked hard to make sure I got exactly what I was looking for in a vehicle for the price I had hoped for.
  • Service with a smile :)

  • Salvatore Catalano

    5 out of 5 starsby kcvalerio on 03/16/2015

    Buying a car at Sahker Family Ford was truly hastle free. The team made the experience comfortable and helped me feel well informed. I purchased a new vehicle and felt confident I had been given the very best deal they could do. The process was easily the most positive car buying experience I've ever had and I highly recommend the dealership and particularly my sales person Salvatore.
  • Another truck from Shakers

    5 out of 5 starsby charlie181 on 03/13/2015

    My wife and I traded our 2005 f-150 for a 2010 f-250. Jim Reed was able to get me the deal I wanted. Shakers has always been good to us and this time was no exception. Thanks Jim
  • Great Place

    5 out of 5 starsby chris_rose on 03/15/2015

    My wife and I were referred to Shakers by a family member. We walked in with our two little girls, and they made us feel welcome. We loved how the salesmen didn't hound us are we arrived. The receptionist brought us to the back and had Jim Reed come talk with us from there. He was excellent, respectful, and not pushy at all. So many salesmen have to find something in common with you right from the start; I can tell the want to make a sell. That was not the case with our friend Jim. My only reason to complain would be the dealership doesn't deal directly with your personal credit union. So, if you chose to finance elsewhere, prepare to be the middle man, and know exactly what you need.
  • Excellent Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby Lena412 on 03/12/2015

    Best Car buying experience!! I just purchased a 2007 Chevy Malibu at Shaker Family Ford. My salesman was Kay, who provided excellent service to myself and my car buying experience. Despite my credit history, Kay was able to find me the perfect car, right in my budget. Kay along with Manny, were very patient with me and kept in constant contact to ensure I had an excellent experience. Kay made sure myself and my mother were very comfortable at all times in Shaker Family Ford. He even gave me a full tank of gas! I would highly recommend anyone to see Kay for their next purchase.
  • Amazing Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby kgati on 03/12/2015

    This was my first time purchasing a car independently and was nervous to be frank. My nerves were quickly eased though as I was well taken care of from the moment I arrived. I was given the opportunity to test several cars in my price range and never felt pressured to purchase anything beyond my capabilities. The customer service was impeccable, I felt well informed and truly valued as a customer. My parents recommended me to Shaker, as they have been going to this dealership and seeing the same dealer for years! I am so grateful for the car and the buying experience I had! Highly recommended!
  • Great Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby ralphandelaine on 03/12/2015

    We went to Shakers to look at the new Explorer. It was on our list of a few 4x4's to look at. We dealt with Jim reed who was professional and no pressure at all. My wife and I were comfortable with Jim and made our purchase with him the next day. Go to Shakers and ask for Jim Reed
  • New car

    5 out of 5 starsby Vikkibrn on 03/07/2015

    Shaker Ford is the best dealership!!! I arrived at the dealership 5 minutes before sales was even opened. I was greeted with a smile, and escorted to the coffee area. I was then introduced to KAY. I informed him that I wanted a Ford Sport Explorer. He pulled one up and we took it out for a ride along some hills and turns! He was able to explain every feature on the car inside and out. So after the test drive comes the dreaded numbers!!! This did not happen with Shakir. Ed came out of his office and explained everything to me. I closed the deal with the same negotiated figure that I wanted to pay. I already told Shaker that I will be purchasing another vehicle in 3 years!!! One more thing..... The new renovated bathroom is beautiful!!!!
