I leased my 2013 Ford Edge in November and had a great experience. I found the service to be excellent. Dave knew everything about the selection and answered all of my questions. I live downtown Toront experience. I found the service to be excellent. Dave knew everything about the selection and answered all of my questions. I live downtown Toronto and was well worth the drive for the selection and the prices. I was able to find my car on a Saturday and it was detailed and ready for pick up by Tuesday morning. I will definitely be recommending Erinwood to everyone looking to purchase a new car. More

I came across this dealership online while searching for a Ford Explorer and sent in an online query - Dave responded promptly (within a couple hours) and I went in the same evening to see him. My initial a Ford Explorer and sent in an online query - Dave responded promptly (within a couple hours) and I went in the same evening to see him. My initial meeting with Dave did not go all that well since he took a long time to locate a vehicle we could take for a test drive (due to miscommunication from other employees at the dealership). However, Dave really tried hard to make it up to us and earn our sale. Dave helped with the negotiations and got us in vehicle while considering our various needs as a family - Would recommend Dave to any friends and also the dealership! More

The travel expenses were never in jeopardy because I had a precise idea of what I was getting, cost and when I was getting it due to a very professional staff at ERINWOOD FORD especially Dave Grittani. Most of the paper work was done over the Internet thanks to Dave and Carol Buckwald. I arrived at the dealership from Billy Bishop Airport at 10:00 am and was on my way back 1400 km to Thunder Bay at 1:30 pm. This was after a major clitch that John Brimo , Bory Chak ,and others turned into a minor blip on the radar screen. Thanks to Dave Grittani and all for a very enjoyable and financially rewarding experience. The word is spreading up here on the frontier and we will be back along with a whole bunch of new customers.

This is the second Ford product I've purchased at Erinwood Ford, specifically having dealt with Mr. Dave Grittani. My first purchase was several years ago and thanks to the flexible and detailed appr Erinwood Ford, specifically having dealt with Mr. Dave Grittani. My first purchase was several years ago and thanks to the flexible and detailed approach of Mr. Grittani I got the vehicle I wanted at the price I wanted. I was given excellent treatment by all the staff at this dealership, so much so that I have traveled from out province to come and purchase at Erinwood. I have to admit the price was a factor but equally important was the care and attentiveness Dave provided in ensuring my vehicle was ready when it was supposed to be, any special preparations properly applied, as well as making sure I was picked up at the train station on a timely manner and driven to the dealership where I was well received. All details of the vehicle itself were covered with me and I left there feeling comfortable that I would be well looked after no matter what happened. More

I chose to buy my new Ford at Erinwood after doing considerable research, both online and by visiting other Ford dealers in the GTA. Dave at Erinwood was responsive to my emails and was easy to work w considerable research, both online and by visiting other Ford dealers in the GTA. Dave at Erinwood was responsive to my emails and was easy to work with. The price quoted on their website was the best in the GTA and I did not feel I needed to try and haggle over the price as a result. No free gas card, no complimentary repairs for 3 years, just a fair price for the car I wanted. I drove across the city to make the deal at Erinwood. More

I was looking for a brand new f150 and decided to first shop online and get the best price before going to the dealership. Dave G. immediately gave me the lowest quote but did not pressure or harass me. Ba shop online and get the best price before going to the dealership. Dave G. immediately gave me the lowest quote but did not pressure or harass me. Basically let me make my mind up and was there to address all my questions with great professionalism and friendliness. He made sure the truck was prepped and synced my phone with the truck and gave me an intro into all the options on the truck. Ashok was the business manager and extended warranty specialist. Very professional and knowledgeable. We had a misunderstanding during the sign off process but Ashok went above and beyond to make sure we were completely satisfied with our experience. He really made a difference when it counted. This is one dealership that wants happy customers and goes out to make sure they are. More

My daughter was buying her first car and we had been to several dealerships over the past few months to test drive various vehicles. All of the dealerships were uncomfortable to be in because of the sales several dealerships over the past few months to test drive various vehicles. All of the dealerships were uncomfortable to be in because of the sales people, who were often very aggressive and dishonest. We had a very different experience at Erinwood Ford. From the moment we emailed the Sales representative Dave Grittani we knew it would be a positive experience. He called first to speak with my daughter and when she wasn't home he emailed my daughter explaining the pricing and features of the vehicle she was interested in. We had sent many emails on many cars and this was the first time we actually got the information that we were asking for. With that we made an appointment to see the car and Dave. When we arrived to see Dave he was friendly and professional in how he worked with us. In fact, everyone in the dealership treated us like we were the customer. Dave allowed us to take the car out for a test drive alone. When we got back we sat down with him and went over the financing options. Dave worked to find solutions to meet our budget and never once did we feel like we were being pushed into something we didn't want. We didn't buy it that night, but we did return on Sunday (yes they are open on Sundays!) with my husband to sign the paperwork. We picked up the car 3 days later and that too was a positive experience. My daughter chose to buy a standard car and with that Dave showed her some tips on how to drive a standard car. It's been about 2 weeks and she's driving it now. Thank you Erinwood Ford and Dave Grittani for such a great buying experience! More

Dear Future Buyers, Erinwood Ford, is absolutely the Dear Future Buyers, Erinwood Ford, is absolutely the best place to go if you are looking to purchase a ford vehicle! I went shopping around at a Dear Future Buyers, Erinwood Ford, is absolutely the best place to go if you are looking to purchase a ford vehicle! I went shopping around at a few dealers looking for a 2013 F-150 (Platinum) Some places were very sluggish at getting me information and helping me find something within my budget. As I was browsing the internet for some deals I came across ERINWOOD FORD out in Mississauga. I called the dealer regarding a truck I saw on their page which was selling at a great price. Dave Grittani had answered the phone and confirmed that what I was seeing on the net was right. As I walked around the dealer I was very impressed with the massive selection and inventory they had for me to choose from compared to the other ford dealers I went to prior. I finally found a place with a big selection! Dave Grittani was very helpful with showing me options and explaining the pricing, as well his honesty and patience made me feel very comfortable on making a purchase. To add all the employees were very helpful and good hearted people along with Carol Buckwald who was excellent at answering my questions, explaining the warranty and financing part of things. This is definitely a start to a new friendship and business relationship with ERINWOOD FORD! If you want a reliable, professional, experienced dealer I definitely recommend ERINWOOD FORD. All the best on your purchases, Chris Shivcharan More

I initially made a query (on a Sunday) via the Internet contact page regarding end-of-the-year Fiesta promotions (we were also looking at the Matrix and a Versa). Dave Grittani replied that evening and I p contact page regarding end-of-the-year Fiesta promotions (we were also looking at the Matrix and a Versa). Dave Grittani replied that evening and I popped over the next day with my daughters. We took it for a spin, liked it, and what's more, liked the price. Dave was low-pressure and straightforward regarding pricing, and pointed out additional incentives that were in the pipes. Long story short, my wife took it for a test the next day. Again, no pressure. That makes things soooo much more pleasant. We sat down and reviewed the pricing and incentives, etc. Following up with the business manager was equally painless. I must say I do appreciate everyone's patience as some of our paper work wasn't quite in order and our insurance company let us down by not getting the insurance info to them by deal's closing. Regardless, everything was taken care of. One of the more pleasant car-buying experiences I've had and I think it comes down to professionalism (and being friendly in a sincere manner). Oh, and this is the first Ford we've bought since we were married 30 years ago. Thanks! More
