I haven't but I plan on it when the time comes. I'm glad we have this stickied as the sponsers certainly deserve the recognition for the sales they've made to the members of FTE. I'm glad to see we have something like this set up.

No offense, but I'd like to ask this of everyone:

Only post if you have purchased a vehicle from one of our purchase program sponsors. If the thread gets filled with non-testimonial posts it loses its focus and people may not read it.

Thanks.

Purchased my '05 F350 from 1956MarkII back in Nov of '04. Never have I experienced such a laid back approach to selling vehicles. He was very pleasant to deal with. I was through the paperwork in about 15 minutes. Was treated to a nice cup of coffee and sandwich at a local coffeeshop and was on my way. 15,000+ miles later, I'm enjoying the truck as much as when I drove it off the lot. Thanks Jeff for making this part of life a nice walk in the park instead of a long climb uphill.

I ordered my 04 F350 CC 4x4 PSD from Jeff (1956MarkII) and picked it up from him July 8, 2004. Jeff is an absolute pleasure to deal with. He is honest and a man of his word. The whole process took less than 15 minutes and then we went and got a bite to eat. I will buy more vehicles from Jeff in the future. If all people were as honest and had the integrity that Jeff has, the world would be a much happier and peaceful place. You will never go wrong purchasing from Jeff.

Jeff thank you again for your honesty and integrity

Yes Sweeney Ford in Greenfield MA. What a great experience I encourage you all to check them out.


They also told me last night that they can beat any Super Duty price out there.

They also do Municipal bids as well.

After you deal with Ken. You'll think you can walk on water.

Polar Kudos!

On March 13th I picked up my new 6.0 CC Lariat from Ernie at Suburban Ford and I have to say the experience couldn't have been easier. The Truck even arrived a couple of weeks early. Not only was the transaction completely hassle free, his pricing beat every dealer around me. So if anyone out there is considering a new truck, at least talk to Ernie first. You won't be disapointed.

Thanks again Ernie!

I just wanted to say that (Ken Kavanugh) Of Sweeney Ford in Greenfield MA did a great job in selling us an 2002 Ford Explorer.


He did every thing on time that he said he was going to do with no BS.

The sale was very painless compared to other dealerships and I look forward to buy more from him.

We never had to go to the dealership at all he brought the Explorer up to us to test drive and he delivered it yesterday right on time to our house.


And also I would like to thank Glen Nickels from the service dept at Sweeney Ford for being helpful on the phone in questions about future sevice work on our fleet there.


Thanks again Ken and everyone else at Sweeney Ford.

Smile Troy at Sweeney Ford...

I just wanted to publicly say thanks to Troy. My 2003 Expedition was just about to have it's orginal 3yr/36K warranty expire. I did not want to pay $2,800 to the dealer I purchased the vehicle from. So, I did an Internet search and the best price I could get for a 7yr/100K warranty was $100 more than Troy's price. I just received the papers in the mail and it was very painless. I now have a better feeling that if something happens to the truck, the most it could cost me would be $100.00 for the next 4 years or 70,000 miles, whichever comes first. My wife and I just wanted the piece of mind, as the vehicle is paid off and we are getting ready to move into another home, with a large house payment. Thank you to the southern california housing market. Well, we will sleep a bit better and this is an insurance policy. Once again, thanks Troy and we will be sure to forward your name to our friends who own a Ford / Lincoln / Mercury vehicle.

Now I have tried www.sweeneyford.com service dept. And wow what a great experience..

They have taken care of the issues that the other dealer that, I was doing business with would not.

Our "99" F-250 is just like new. and our 2000 F-350 is also the same.

Chris Pinadi and his great staff there go out of there way to make you happy and do the job right.

We are glad to be doing business there. And soon looking to them for another new SUV.

(Example) The fuel filter was way less expensive then the other dealer. I was dealing for my 2000 Power Stroke.


P.S I do intend on brining all of my friends there so they can get great service as well as great sales.

I have never seen such great hard work and dedication from these guys. And if all the dealer's did what these guys can do. Ford would be so much better off in this country.


With the great work they did to our "99" F-250 I now longer feel that truck is a lemon.

Ken At Sweeney Ford

We just got our "03" Ford Explorer on Friday and we love it. Ken and his great staff has done a great job for us. Our "00" F-350 Power Stroke Diesel is running much better now and getting better Mileage because of there great service dept.

The other dealer that was working on that truck really messed that one all up. Two days before we got our "03" Explorer Chris in service called and asked me what brand tires I wanted on the "03" Explorer for del.

I have to say I almost passed out when he asked me. Because the other dealer we used to deal with would never think of that. Or be that kind. They would have trow en on a set of cheap tires.

By the way the "02" Explorer we got a few months back is running well and still pleased with that one.

Thanks again to those at Sweeney Ford. Including Rick the sale's manager that guy also has a great sense of humor.



I hope that all of my friends will go there and see for them selves what a great experience they can have like we have had there.
