Chris Sims was wonderful. He helped me with taking picture and taking videos of the entire process. He made sure my truck was loaded safely on trailer and took videos so I could see as it happened. Kristi Arambel was great with paperwork and had a lot of patience with my lack of computer skills. Overall a great experience with Wareing Belle Fourche Ford! ????????????????????????????????????????

One of the best I have ever dealt with. I had an intermittent problem that was almost impossible to troubleshoot. These guys stayed on it and found the issue on my jeep cherokee. Great experience I would recommend them automatically.

I live in SC and found the exact truck I was looking for at this dealership in SD. Purchasing a vehicle 24 hours away can be a stressful process, but Chris Sims and Kristi Arambel made it as easy as could be. I knew what I wanted and Chris recognized that. I appreciated that and the way he treated me. While other dealers are charging ridiculous markups, Chris made me a very fair deal on the TRX I wanted. I also had the vehicle shipped and Chris took pictures and videos of the inspection and loading on the truck. No games, no tricks, no drama. Kristi handled the titling for SC and walked me through the process. Both were very communicative, friendly and helpful. Fantastic stressless experience! I’d recommend this dealer and these individuals to anyone across the country!!
