"Appel Ford has real people who actually care. My daughter had been looking to buy her first car for over 6 months. We had been to multiple car dealerships in Houston and College Station. We experienced shady and dishonest salespeople. She let me know of a vehicle Appel Ford was selling. I called and spoke to them. They sent me the CarFax plus a detailed video of the car. After discussing the vehicle with the salesman over the phone we drove an hour to test-drive it and the minor issues the used car had Appel Ford fixed. Our salesperson went above and beyond to make sure my daughter had a great clean reliable car. The smile and satisfaction my daughter has makes me a proud dad. Thank you Appel!! Great people at a great dealership!" -- Fitz W. (Google Review)
