Thumbs down Ralph's Dodge was sold

And it was bought by the people who own Waldorf Ford/Dodge (and all the other locations). What a shame. We used to like Ralph's.

Oh you have got to be kidding me!

They already have a monopoly on Ford dealerships down here (except for Hunt Ford).

Not kidding. I know someone who works at Prince Frederick Ford and he told me so. He may end up down at Ralph's.

I'm not a big fan of their management (from dealing with Waldorf Ford).

Their ownership is not even local.

That leaves Park Dodge and Hunt Ford as the only independent Ford/Dodge dealers in the area.

Ralph is retiring and he and the family are moving to Montana. Gonna live that boyhood dream of being a cowboy I guess.

I will never buy a car or truck from Waldorf Ford again after buying three cars from them.

I always felt that I could trust Ralph's more than the other dealerships around here in Southern MD. I've had nothing but good experiences with them in the past.

One of the few dealerships anywhere that you seldom hear a complaint. The parts department people are first class and don't need your VIN number to buy a glove box latch.
Ralph will be missed.
