Tom Monteith was very helpful, courteous, and professional in assisting us with buying out our lease on our 2019 Explorer and with purchasing a new 2022 Ford Edge, Tom made our experience very comfortable and non stressful, I highly recommend Tom & Thayer Ford to anyone looking to buy a new car. Thank You Tom & Thayer Ford

EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE!! Our truck broke down on the Ohio Turnpike. We are from MN and were headed to CT, no where near a familiar area. We called about 10 different auto service shops close by and no one was able to fit us in for 6 days. Thayer had told us the same thing but when we told them how far we were from home they had us drive right over and squeezed us in to their busy schedule. We were back on the road with only a couple hour delay. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. And who knows where we would be without them!!

We recently purchased and pre owned car with Tommy Monteith at Thayer. Our process couldnt have been more quick or easy. When I called to ask about a vehicle my husband was on his way to look at, he said hed take care of him and he wasnt kidding. We drove it home that day and have been nothing but happy with Kurt experience since.

Great experience from start to finish! Tommy helped me with the vehicle and provided videos and walk arounds of everything I asked about. Financing paperwork was completed by Presley who had everything ready for me to go when I arrived. I purchased from out of state and they picked me up at the airport, Tommy had the truck ready and I walked out with my vehicle in 5 min or so with a cold water and sugar free monster! Highly recommend this dealership!
