In the market for a new Ford. Looking for a 4x2 Lariat w/ the 502a and tech packages to fit my family hauling needs. Asking for an assist on which dealer is preferred from a sales standpoint within the Atl. I'm a couple 100 miles away and my local dealers are without the model range. Thanks in advance.

What area of GA. Are you in ?....the hardest part besides finding the truck is finding a dealer you can trust. The ones I like are in Hawkinsville, Byron and Statesboro and Perry, they just changed ownership.

Akins Ford in Winder has a good internet department and seems to really deal or at least did in the past when I used them and they didn't hesitate at locating a vehicle.

My '16 will come from the Jasper dealer but only because that's the 2nd closest one to me and I want to build a relationship there. They will order anything at invoice which isn't any great deal but I can live with it.

Redd, would suggest avoiding Nalley Ford. I purchased a 2014 there in Feb., but the antics were astonishing. In calling around for prices, Akins Ford seemed straight up, but they did not have the unit I wanted and they were 1k off from where I wanted to be--maybe I could have worked a deal there, but I'm not sure. I would also consider Loganville Ford, but I don't have first hand knowledge there.

Deeply appreciate the insight fellows. Wade and Hesseney are on equal footing from a bottom line perspective and cut to chase well before the other dealers in the local area. From a professional standpoint, I favor Hesseney and that's because my entry point started with the fleet manager. Meanwhile my sales rep from Wade is young learning business etiquette. But Wade has the lower price and I can handle buddy talk for a bit of savings. Thanks again for the guidance and knowledge to avoid Nalley.
