Why California drivers text me first

California, Maryland is the county's shopping strip, which means you have options, and a lot of them come with a pushy process. My pitch to California buyers is simple: text me what you want, get a walk-around video and an out-the-door number back, and decide from your couch. The lot is 15 minutes from the Wildewood light.

Getting to the pre-owned lot from California

About 15 minutes: south on Route 235, then Route 4 west and Route 5 south to Point Lookout Road. The lot is at 26322 Point Lookout Road in Leonardtown, just down the street from the main Leonardtown Ford showroom. Text me when you are close and I will tell you where to pull in, or open directions.

What California buyers are driving home

California is family territory. Three-row SUVs, minivans traded in for Expeditions, and plenty of Escapes and Broncos for the 235 commute to the base. I also move a lot of lightly used F-150s to folks who just bought a house off Route 4 and suddenly need a truck.

How a deal with me usually goes

  1. You text me what you want, or a stock number from leonardtownford.com.
  2. I send back a walk-around video, the CARFAX, and the itemized out-the-door number. Trade-in value too if you have one.
  3. You drive from California once. The vehicle is out front, the paperwork is started, and most customers are done in under an hour.

Pit wall

Questions about buying from California.

Is it worth driving past the California dealers to see you?

That is for you to decide, but here is the difference: you get one person from the first text to the last signature, numbers before you arrive, and a lot that only sells pre-owned. Fifteen minutes is a short drive to skip the runaround.

Can I bring my own financing?

Yes. Outside approvals from your bank or credit union are welcome. If you want, I will also run it through our lenders so you can compare.

Why text you instead of using the dealership website form?

Website forms go into a queue. A text goes to my phone. You get a faster answer, a direct line for every question after the sale, and someone who actually remembers what you are looking for.

Are the prices on leonardtownford.com the same prices you quote?

Yes. I send the itemized out-the-door number on any vehicle listed there: price, Maryland excise tax, title and tags, and the processing fee. No surprises at the desk.

Call your play

Tell me what you're after.

Thirty seconds. I reply personally, usually within the hour during sales hours.

  • No spam, no call center, no sharing your number.
  • You talk to me, start to finish.
  • Bad credit, no credit, rebuilding? Just say so. I've got lenders for that.

Rather talk? Call or text me.
