Employee Highlights: Keith and Dale

Here at Leif Johnson Ford, we pride ourselves on our awesome team members and all they do to make our dealership  shine. Today we’d love to take this opportunity to introduce you to two of our outstanding employees! Meet Keith. He is our current Employee of the Month at our Leif Johnson Ford location, and has recently moved over from Truck City Ford to help out in the Parts’ department.

Fun Car Hacks

Take one laundry sheet to put under each of your car seats. One sheet per seat = A beautiful smelling car! Bringing pizza home? Have seat warmers? Turn your seat warmers up to full blast to keep your pizza warm the whole ride home! If your vehicle has a remote starter like the 2015 Ford Escape, turn your AC setting on and wait about five minutes before getting in. Boom. Just like that you’ve beat the (105 degrees in Austin Texas, y’all) summer heat. Use an all cleaning eraser to wipe down the residue and film that builds up on your windshield. Best part? It won’t leave any streaks! You can also use shaving cream. Sounds odd, but if you apply to the inside and wipe off it will help to reduce fogging. The best for last here. If you’ve ever left your windows down and ended up with a damp car, here’s your solution. Kitty litter in a sock. Yep, you heard us right.

Customer Highlight: Phillip White

Phillip White has just purchased a 2015 Ford F-150, his fourth truck buy from Leif Johnson Ford. It’s not hard to see how satisfied he is with his new beauty. “The design is completely different than the 2014, it’s laid out better, it’s wider. I love the design.”He also loves his dealership of choice. When asked about his experiences at Leif Johnson Ford, he tells us, “They’ve always treated me right. Always. They’ve always worked with me.” Phillip is always a pleasure to work with, and we are honored to have had the chance to get to know him over the years.  He’s been buying from us since 2003, and we couldn’t be happier to have him as one of our longtime, valued customers. Mr. White is a retired veteran, and tells us he has had the chance to travel everywhere. In his spare time, he absolutely loves to bowl. And drive around in that shiny new F-150, of course.
