Chains and snow tires will help (we have both in stock 250-758-7742). We also carry salt for your walk ways and stairs, winter windshield washer fluid, and every kind of windshield wiper needed. Drive safe Nanaimo.

PS. Chains will only work if you put them on the driving tires. Front Wheel Drive cars, like the Toyota Camry in the video, does not get chains on the rear tires!

This Manitoba Ford Dealership really shared the meaning of Built Ford Tough. The morning following a fire that engulfed the entire dealership, one of the firemen opened up the truck with jaws of life and drove the Ford F150 off the rubble.

BUILT FORD TOUGH!

Correction! The 2012 Focus gets 50 MPG or 5.6L/100 km on the highway. This year it’s all about getting great gas mileage, and everything on the new 2012 Ford Focus plays it’s part! Including these active grille shutters on this sweet blue Focus at Nanaimo’s only Ford Store! Vancouver Island’s largest used vehicle dealership. Steve Marshall Ford has knowledgeable sales personnel who make sure your buying experience is informed and exciting. With constant training and excellent personal skills, our professional sales staff makes customer service the priority.

Why not Skype, Ford has wifi right in it!!

Bryan says, “People that aren’t driving Ford are missing out, everyone should own one!”

If you missed the Employee Pricing in July and August, you are certainly in luck. Ford has extended the Employee Pricing into September. So you now have until September 30th to take advantage of the pricing meant only for Family!

So here we are a few months later giving it our “go”.

Have you ever scanned a QR Code?

People browse inventory here at the dealership at times we are not here, Sundays or evenings after we’ve left. While we love the visits and are pleased you’ve thought of us when you had a minute; we can certainly see that standing around outside a dealership all alone searching for information on your phone could be kind of a bust.

We want consumers not to miss any of the unique advantages of our Ford products. Most of our scanned codes would direct you to a short (15-30 Seconds) YouTube video describing the feature (here’s the 2012 Taurus keyless trunk) and what it does! Other codes share our third party dealership reviews or a direct link to that vehicle online, or even other inventory like the vehicle you are looking at. All the codes are labeled so that you have a general idea what you’re scanning!

We are still figuring out what information you, our browsing guests, want.
Do you have suggestions?

The QR Code is our attempt to minimize the effort and time required to search and find information on a phone…especially considering the buttons on the blackberry and the sometimes tricky screen keyboards on the Androids and iPhones!

We did advertise, including a QR Code, for the first time in June. In our future we can see QR Codes helping you quickly find more information, pictures or video about a specific vehicle, or even book an appointment for the advertised service special. All quickly and on the go!

Other places that have QR Codes in use regularly in Nanaimo are the VIU Library, Garage Clothing, and even The Source has tried using QR Codes in their ads.

Let us know if you like the idea of QR Codes, what you’d like to see the codes give you and if you’ve ever scanned a QR Code!

In case you are wanting to be a part of the world wide hunt for Waldo, watch for the next update on Google Earth in Nanaimo. Hopefully we’ll have a surprise for you!!

Updated with new video the morning of Thursday, April 28th.

We wanted to show our incomparable support for the Canucks, find a way to help our local food bank, and have some fun during the play offs that are happening right now…  Steve Marshall Ford Lincoln acquired 100 Canuck jerseys!

We are giving away a Canucks jersey (no purchase necessary) to anyone who brings in a non-perishable food item or a monetary donation for the Salvation Army and test drives a new Ford or Lincoln vehicle on April 28th or 29th.

That’s it! So easy (and rewarding) to Make a Difference in Nanaimo! Get your FREE Canucks jersey:

1. Bring a non-perishable food item, or a monetary donation, for the Salvation Army
2. Test drive a new Ford or Lincoln vehicle
3. There are only 100 jerseys

Limit: One per household. Must be 19 or older.

The all-new Ford Focus achieves significantly improved aerodynamic performance, cutting drag by up to 7.8 percent to help reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. It’s a key contributor to achieving projected 40 mpg fuel economy for the all-new Focus.

The 2012 Focus exudes energy with its athletic Z body lines. It’s designed to cheat the wind and steal your breath. The shifting belt line creates sinuous shoulders over the wheels. It looks ready for anything and the looks don’t lie.

Our available Parking Technology Package comes with a rear view camera, front parking sensors and Active Park Assist. Unlike other systems that use imaging devices, our Active Park Assist uses ultrasonic sensors. Once activated, your Focus will parallel park itself with almost no input from you. And it will do it nearly three times faster than competitive park assist systems can.
