Default How do you rate your delear Principal?

Out of 10 rate your Ford Dealer Principal, 1 being you want to send them to Jail and 10 = you would like to take them fishing with you. don't name the person just the dealership and the state please.
I will start,
Tully Motors = 9 Queensland _2:

I still have the Brian Glynn Lylidale sticker on the back of the eb. I wonder how many dodgies proceeded on my car when the last owner purchased it.

Unhappy How do you rate your Delear Principal?

I will let you know later this week - so far they ain't looking to good. Once they got your money they don't give a sh*t. At present sales 5 out of 10 service I will rate leter.

I think there are two answers to this question. There is of course the sales part of a dealer and a service part and they can be two entirely different sharks. For mine Medieke Ford, Port Macquarie, sales 8/10 and service 9/10. Though I am exceptionly happy with both it would only be in the extreme to award 10/10 IMHO.

Denmac Darra - Ipswich QLD = 10

Have bought 3 x FPV's and an XR6 from them in the last 6 months and found that they always look after me very very well.
