Our directions page puts the drive to our Ford dealership from Wentzville at 34 minutes from the center of town, running east on I-64 and US-40 to Manchester Road. We are at 15675 Manchester Road in Ellisville. Plan around traffic through that corridor at peak times, and our guide to driving through St. Louis covers the conditions and pinch points if you are not making the run often.

Yes, and it happens constantly. If the vehicle is worth more than what you still owe, the difference becomes credit toward the next one. If you owe more than it's worth, that gap has to go somewhere, and it usually gets folded into the new financing. We will tell you plainly when that is a poor idea, because rolling a large negative balance forward can leave you underwater on the new loan from the day you sign it.

Our finance team also handles refinancing, so now and again the better answer is restructuring what you already have rather than replacing the vehicle at all. Send your VIN through Value Your Trade along with your payoff amount and we can work out where you stand before you drive over.

Yes, we can deliver to your Wentzville home or workplace. Either way, bring your driver's license and proof of insurance to the handover, and if you're trading a vehicle we will handle that at the same time.

Most of it, yes. Work out a payment on the payment calculator, submit the finance application so the finance team has your options worked up before you arrive, and send your VIN through Value Your Trade for a number on your current vehicle. Book a VIP test drive and the vehicle will be ready when you get here. Do those four things and the in-store portion of shopping is short.

There's no single number. That's the honest answer even though people would prefer a threshold. Car financing near Wentzville comes down to the lender, not the dealership. We work with local and national lenders instead of one bank, and different lenders price risk differently, so an application one declines can find workable terms at another. We have programs aimed at rebuilding credit and we can overcome most credit problems. What we will not do is promise an approval, because no dealership can guarantee what a lender will decide. Run the numbers on the payment calculator first so you know what a payment looks like at a few different rates, then apply and let us find out where you actually land.

At minimum, a valid driver's license, proof of insurance and your method of payment. Financing adds a few items, typically recent pay stubs or tax returns and proof of residence. If you are trading a vehicle, bring the title, the registration and all sets of keys. Our guide to what documents to bring when buying a car in Missouri has the complete list. Getting it right the first time is what keeps a 30-minute drive from becoming two of them.

We look at the typical market value for that vehicle, its accident history, any open recalls, and its accumulated use and condition. The initial number comes from your VIN, and we confirm it in person before it becomes firm. Once it is firm it does not move, and there is no obligation attached at any point. We would genuinely rather you compared our offer against others than accepted it and wondered.

Your personal ID, the vehicle registration and title, all sets of keys if you have them, and any vehicle documents or owner's manuals. If the vehicle is titled to a company, you will also need a letter signed by an authorized representative and two forms of identification showing the business address. We cannot complete a purchase without a title, since that is what proves ownership.

Our guide to selling a car in Missouri and transferring the title covers the process, including what to do if the title has gone missing.

The figure on the listing is the figure on the windshield, and we don't reprice a vehicle because you turned up wanting it. What that price does not include is tax, title, license, processing and our $620 administration fee. Those are disclosed in the fine print, and we'll walk through the full figure with you before anything is signed. If you are comparing our listing against another dealer's, compare the out-the-door number, not the advertised one.

Not necessarily. The Ford Pickup and Delivery program collects the vehicle and returns it, with the transportation from Wentzville being complimentary. At 35 minutes each way that saves you the better part of a morning. Book an appointment and confirm your address when you do.

If you would rather bring it in, Early Bird and Night Owl drop-off with park-and-lock means you are not tied to the 7am to 6pm window.

Yes, and they are among the better value used cars near Wentzville once you account for the drive. A courtesy transportation vehicle is a late-model Ford that served as a loaner here, so it carries low mileage and a service record kept by our own department, not by a previous owner we never met. The saving against an equivalent new vehicle is real, and you give up very little in age or condition to get it. Availability depends on what has cycled out of the loaner fleet, so it arrives in batches, not steadily. Check the courtesy loaner specials page before you set out and call 636-227-5700 to confirm what is still there.

Missouri charges state sales tax on vehicle purchases, with additional local rates layered on depending on where you live, so the total varies by address, not by where you bought the vehicle. The part to know is that a trade-in reduces the taxable amount. Missouri taxes the difference between the purchase price and your trade credit, so a strong trade lowers your tax bill and the amount you finance at the same time. Our finance team will calculate your exact figure at the desk, and your county collector can confirm the local rate for your address.

If the vehicle is in stock and your financing is settled, often the same day. Delivery to Wentzville is scheduled around when the paperwork completes, so starting the finance application from home is the single biggest thing you can do to bring that date forward. If you are ordering from the factory rather than buying from the lot, timelines depend on the model and configuration, and we will tell you what's realistic, not what sounds good.

It is Ford's certified pre-owned program, and only franchised Ford dealers can sell it. Gold Certified covers Fords under six years old with fewer than 80,000 miles, each of which passes a 172-point inspection and carries a 12-month or 12,000-mile comprehensive limited warranty spanning more than 1,000 components, plus a 7-year or 100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty. Blue Certified reaches wider, taking Ford and non-Ford vehicles under ten years old with fewer than 150,000 miles through a 139-point inspection with a 90-day or 4,000-mile comprehensive limited warranty. Both tiers include a CARFAX vehicle history report and 24 hour roadside assistance, and the warranty transfers at no cost if you sell. Every certified vehicle clears that inspection on top of our own, and whatever it finds we fix at our expense before the vehicle is badged. Browse the certified inventory.
