Default Royal Oak Ford?

Does anyone know how reliable they are? I found a good deal there and I want to buy it.

Should I be okay buying from this place? I'm assuming a dealership would be fine but you never know these days.

It's a well known dealer around here. Never bought anything direct from them myself (my wife's car was from there but it was a dealer trade deal - they had the car we wanted and the dealer did a swap with them to get it for us).

"Ford dealership" and "reliable" in the same sentence. Will wonders never cease...

Hey, it's possible. I've heard great things about Tousley and they're a dealership.

How did your order go with royaloakford?

I would not order from them again. Very slow handling time.

I placed order 11/20 - Received update saying the provided Credit Card has the wrong expiration date
Called in 11/21 morning - Gave CC details again, Bruce (online sales) said everything is good and my order is ready
11/27 - Received alert saying my order has been shipped.

WTF? I thought the order was already shipped out. If the order is backordered, it would have been wise to let me know when I placed the order. Then, I can decide if I want to wait for the item. All my other parts (x pipe, muffler, hanger, clamps) are coming in this week so I can install it this weekend.

Now i have to wait till the following weekend because the part from royaloakford will not come in until 12/3 .

Just order it from AM next time. Although AM is a little pricier, at least their S&H is way more efficient.

I ended up not ordering from them and going with someone else instead.
