Customer Highlight: The Levines

Father and son duo Steve and Alex Levine are absolutely loving their new Ford King Ranch. In fact, there wasn’t anything they didn’t love about their experience with us at Leif Johnson Ford. Steve, enthusiastic and talkative, chats with us about what a great time he had buying his new truck. The last time he bought a truck was back in 2004, and he laughs when he realizes that two of the team members he’s talking with (The Social Media Rep and the Sync Tech)own  job titles that probably weren’t even around back then. (Times may change, but after over 50 years of business, you can bet the excellent service at Leif Johnson Ford sure doesn’t!)  When asked further about his time spent with us, he lets us know that his sync tech Peter is funny enough to be a stand up comedian, except for the fact that he was momentarily  sitting down. Joking aside, Steve says that his salesman Leo was pretty awesome too. “I gave him three chances to beat other dealership prices and he was …

Leif Johnson Ford- Customer Letter

We absolutely love receiving positive feedback from our happy Leif Johnson Ford customers, and this sweet letter from John was no exception! “To the Sales Manager and Staff, I just want to thank you and show my appreciation to the sales team that assisted with my new purchase of a new Ford Focus SE Hatch Back. When I arrived at your showroom I was professionally greeted by Justin and then Ms. Ashley Williams helped with every question and all sale formalities until I left in my new car. I can honestly say from start to finish everything went very smoothly and I was quite pleased throughout. Although Ashley was relatively new to your sales department it was not apparent as she displayed confidence and competence of someone highly seasoned in her work. She is a credit to Leif Johnson in the friendly professionalism and customer care that seems to come very naturally. Even though the sale is ‘complete’, I’ve been given every impression that I am welcome back for any questions, follow-up, and service and so …

The Service Dept was closed and we needed to get a rental car. We had called a friend in Lockhart to pick us up, but you came to our rescue and provided us a rental car, so we were able to let …

Customer of the Week: Christiana

Christiana Elmer cannot say enough good things about her experience at Truck City Ford. From the moment I meet her, she is absolutely beaming about her time spent with us. Decked out in fashionable leather boots and coat with a bubbly personality to match, she tells me all about why she believes Truck City outshines all other dealerships she’s dealt with in the past. “They went above and beyond” she says, mentioning that she had been accustomed to rude salesman at other dealerships beforehand. That definitely wasn’t the case at Truck City. From her salesman Sergio to the guys working in parts, Christiana cannot get over how “nice” and “wonderful” every single team member was. She was so thankful for this kindness and helpfulness that she even came back bearing gifts for Sergio’s new baby girl. Christiana decided to pay us a visit after her husband had a great experience buying his vehicle from Truck City.  Now that she’s found us, it definitely doesn’t sound like she’ll be going anywhere else for her Ford-buying in the future!

Turning a 2014 Ford Explorer into a Lean, Mean, Blue-Matte Finished Machine

Want to know how to take a regular 2014 Explorer and turn it into a lean, mean, blue-matte finished Ford machine? Well, read on! 1. Change out an already impressive radio and added a new audio system from Custom sounds. As fair warning, this system is not for the weak of heart. 2. Add in Customer Alea 3-row interior and clay stitching, courtesy of Austin Auto Interiors. We loved the original seating too, but nothing beats the comfort of this leather interior, y’all. Makes your Monday trip to work enjoyable, even. 3. Build on to this beauty with A Ford Accessory LED Interior Lighting Kit. Because a vehicle this trendy needs to be properly illuminated. 4. Throw in some Veloche Vapor 955 20″ wheel and Nitto NT420S Tires. Now the outside is beginning to match the suaveness of the inside. Be prepared: These wheels are so snazzy that they are sure to turn heads and elicit stares. As if your friends wouldn’t already be jealous enough of this beauty. 5. Finish up by having masterful Leif Johnson techs add a crazy-fashionable blue-matte finish. It’s what all …

Responsible Parenting Award Ceremony

On December 17th, Leif Johnson had the honor of partnering with Child Inc. to give away Ford vehicles and many other gifts for the Responsible Parenting Award! We absolutely loved seeing the faces of the ecstatic children and parents upon receiving their presents at this ceremony. Our Fords definitely went to an amazing group of families, and we feel so fortunate to have the chance to take part in this event every Christmas season! What exactly does this award ceremony entail, you might ask?
