Exceptional service at SMF! I was in the market for a new (used) Raptor and found the color and equipment package I wanted here. I connected with Joey from the sales team, and he made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Joey did a fantastic job negotiating the deal over the phone since I live about an hour away. We handled most of the details ahead of time, which made the trip much more efficient. When I arrived, I was promptly greeted by the staff and met with Joey within minutes. Throughout the process, everyone was clear, upfront, and professional. ...

I've been thinking about going electric for a few years. After owning half a dozen Audis and Beemers, I wasn't thinking seriously about American cars other than Tesla. When a friend showed me his new Ford Mach E, it was a revelation. I was impressed with its appearance and features, and SM Ford made me a deal involving a good trade-in, great discounts and 0% financing (I wasn't even looking at financing but at 0% why not?). So I took the plunge. I previously had the garage wired for a 240 volt hook-up, so now I just need to get ...

This was my first time dealing with Santa Margarita Ford. One reason, it's 54 miles away from my home. The way I found them was through Car Gurus site. I was looking for specific vehicle, 2024 Ford Bronco Wildtrak Shadow Black. Guess who was the first dealer to follow up with me...SMF. They had the exact vehicle I wanted! Plus, it was a couple of thousand dollars cheaper than 3 other dealers that showed up on the CG site. I drove out there on a Wednesday (1hr/10min) and from the time I walked up to the door, someone was there ...

I was looking for a 4 runner and went to RSM Toyota. They didn't have any. I decided to look at a Bronco Sport @ RSM Ford and they had a 4 runner there. It was exactly what I was looking for and the price was right! They were more than fair with the trade-in I had. No hard sales or pushy sales people. The salesman Vinnie was excellent. I have bought many vehicles in my lifetime and this was by far the easiest. The finance guy, Dave was very helpful answering my questions about extended warranty. I highly recommend RSM Ford.

Friendly staff, and attentive. I could not give them 5 stars though because the cost was 10% more than what I was told and included a $5.99 charge for washer fluid I know I didn't need. I think the customer should be asked up front about these charges, as small as they might be. Either way, Jacob was very nice and polite and so was his counter part, which took the payment, she was also very nice.
