Frank Myers Auto Now Offering Used 2009 Ford Escape & Mercury Mariner

Posted on by
Frank Myers Auto Maxx is a used car dealership in Winston-Salem that offers pre-owned SUVs

The used 2009 Ford Escape & Mercury Mariners are 2 of the most popular smaller SUVs in America.

The 2009 Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner models are 2 new used SUVs to arrive at Frank Myers Auto Maxx in Winston-Salem, NC.

Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner, the popular compact pre-owned SUVs, boast better fuel economy than previous models, thanks to a combination of the new engine and fuel-saving transmission. 

“Ford is offering customers more power with better fuel efficiency and comfort…especially for a used SUV,” said Tracy Myers, owner of Frank Myers Auto Maxx.  “The 2009 Escape and Mariner are both pre-owned SUVs that have a quieter ride and better handling.  They’re very engaging and most of our pre-owned SUV buyers here in Winston-Salem, NC agree that they are fun to drive.”

Since it was introduced, the Ford Escape has been one of America’s best-selling small SUVs. Since there are so many other vehicles available in this segment, this may come as a bit of a surprise. But Ford has an expertise of designing SUVs that appeal to a wide range of buyers.

With the Escape (and its sister vehicle, the soon-to-be defunct Mercury Mariner), Ford successfully combined the styling and four-wheel-drive capability of a traditional SUV with the size, practicality and driving characteristics of a midsize car. The Escape is a used SUV that also offers a low price which also makes it so popular in the Triad area of NC.

“Not only is the Ford Escape and the Mercury Mariner a couple of  the most fuel-efficient SUV on the planet, it also offers families the perfect combination of value and versatility to our SUV shoppers in Winston-Salem”, says Keith Bowman, Head Honcho at Frank Myers Auto Maxx. 

“The used Escape offers the convenience and flexibility that many families need in an ultra fuel-efficient vehicle,” he said.  “You can fit five passengers plus a lot of cargo, such as sporting and camping equipment.  It’s a fully functional SUV that happens to be great on gas as well.” 

Earning a spot on several “Best Of” lists, the Escape & the Mariner are readily available for purchase at Frank Myers Auto Maxx in Winston-Salem, NC.

2010 Ford Mustang Scheduled To Arrive At Frank Myers Auto Maxx

Posted on by

America’s favorite muscle car for 45 years straight – hits the road with a new exterior design; new interior featuring well-crafted materials and updated technology; and a V-8 engine with even more horsepower and an even throatier signature Mustang exhaust sound.

The used 2010 Ford Mustang will arrive in Winston-Salem, NC soon.

When you combine those elements with the Mustang’s improved handling characteristics, more standard safety and technology features and its already-strong safety and quality performance and reputation, and it’s easy to see how the muscle car known around the world delivers on the promise of fast, fun and affordable performance for a whole new era.

“It’s no surprise that more than 9 million customers have made Mustang one of the world’s most beloved automotive and cultural icons,” said Tracy Myers, owner of Frank Myers Auto Maxx in Winston-Salem, NC. “It’s obvious to me that the Mustang team wanted to make sure this modern legend lived up to the expectations of Ford fanatics all over the world. In my opinion, this may be the best Mustang ever.”

For 2010, the team delivered. “The new Mustang marks new levels of both power and refinement,” said Paul Randle, Mustang chief engineer. “We’ve designed and engineered this to be the next classic Mustang that everyone talks about for years and years.”

At launch, customers can choose from a V-6 or V-8 with their choice of coupe, convertible or innovative glass roof, plus several new options and features delivering the opportunity for customers to personalize their cleaner, meaner-looking Mustangs.

“Being a Mustang fan myself, it seems that the best Mustangs have always been the ones that connect young America with the spirit of the times – and the 2010 does exactly that,” said Rich Little, Credit Miracle Worker at Frank Myers Auto Maxx. “The new Mustang is close to the magnetic center of the original, fully loaded with the swagger you’d expect, but with modern refinement and attention to detail like I’ve never seen in a muscle car.”

With a completely redone exterior that echoes the classic Mustang designs of the past, an interior featuring world-class materials, numerous technology upgrades and an improved driving experience, the 2010 Mustang is poised to become the latest classic in the proud line of Ford’s iconic American muscle car.

“The 2010 Mustang is drop-dead gorgeous,” Myers said. “I think this car marks the best Mustang effort in the past 45 years and we can’t wait for them to start arriving at the dealership. We are confident that when everyone sees it, they’ll want to own it.”

The 2010 Mustang will be built at the Auto Alliance International Plant in Flat Rock, Michigan and available at Frank Myers Auto Maxx sometime before the end of 2010.

Hallelujah! Ford Leads The American Car Revival

Posted on by

Ford Motor Company is a big winner in the latest JD Power study.

 Ford had been making sound decisions about the direction of their company even before the Big Three went to Washington back in the fall of 2008.  The automaker’s current CEO, Alan Mulally, was pivotal in the transformation. Mulally focused on the balance sheet and was able to cut costs, put money in the bank and avoid taking government bailout money unlike the other two big American automakers. The move gave Ford the money needed to restructure the company and develop better automobiles.

 Ford is now the highest-ranked mass-market automaker in initial quality. It also jumped into the list of top five brands in overall quality for the first time ever, and has 12 models that rank within the top three in their respective IQS segments — more than any other carmaker in the study — including capturing top honors in three segments with the Focus, Mustang and Taurus.

 General Motors (often called “Government Motors” these days) also did well, with 10 models that rank within the top three in their segments. Chrysler didn’t fare as well.

 This is in sharp contrast to last year’s results, when much of the discussion about automotive quality centered on the difficulties U.S. automakers were facing, and the perceptions that these problems were largely caused by poor product quality.

 “I’m happy to see that Domestic automakers have worked diligently to improve the quality of their vehicles, particularly since 2007,” says Tracy Myers, owner of Frank Myers Auto Maxx in Winston-Salem, NC. What is still lagging, however, is the consumer perception of domestic quality. “As much as I know it and other dealers know it, our customers just haven’t realized it yet” Myers says. “The folks that own a domestic car love them, but those that don’t still believe that foreign automakers build better automobiles. I can’t tell you how many times a customer will tell me that they would never buy a used Ford, Chevy or Dodge and they will only buy a Honda, Toyota or Nissan.”

 Unlike Ford, Toyota clearly is not having a good year. The once-shining example of quality and reliability fell from the sixth overall position in the manufacturer rankings in 2009 to 21st this year.

 “All of the recent recalls had quite an effect on the performance of Toyota,” Myers says. “Not surprisingly, we’ve seen an increase in concern over brakes, pedals and floor mats, all issues related to recalls.”

However, that doesn’t mean Toyota is down for the count. “This is the 24th consecutive year the study has been done, and Toyota was above average for 23 of those years,” Myers says.
