Keller Bros Ford

What Keller Bros Ford does

Keller Bros. Ford Lititz is a privately held Ford franchise dealership operating a single retail location at 730 S Broad St, Lititz, Pennsylvania. The company sells new Ford vehicles, certified pre-owned Ford vehicles, and used vehicles, and operates a full-service center, parts department, finance center, and mobile service offering. It serves both individual consumers seeking personal and family transportation and commercial/fleet buyers purchasing work trucks, transit vans, and specialty vehicles. The dealership participates in Ford Motor Company's national promotional campaigns and manufacturer incentive programs, and is part of the broader Keller Bros Family of Dealerships group.

The dealership's product surface covers Ford's complete North American lineup, including cars (Mustang), SUVs and crossovers (Escape, Bronco Sport, Bronco, Explorer, Edge, Expedition), trucks and vans (Maverick, Ranger, F-150, Super Duty F-250/F-350/F-450, Transit), and electrified models (Mustang Mach-E, F-150 Lightning, Escape Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid, Explorer Hybrid, E-Transit). Inventory exceeds 190 new vehicles with 34 hybrid/EV options. Beyond floor-stock sales, the dealership offers custom factory ordering, demo vehicles, and specialty/commercial vehicles. Technology consists of standard dealer-management infrastructure: online inventory browsing, digital showroom, service scheduling, and online financing applications, with no proprietary or AI-driven systems disclosed.

Revenue derives from four streams: new vehicle sales, pre-owned vehicle sales, service and parts, and finance and insurance. Vehicle pricing follows MSRP-based transaction pricing with a flat $490 documentation fee, supplemented by manufacturer incentives, dealer rebates, and promotional financing. Pricing spans MSRPs from approximately $31,000 to $94,000. Service and parts operations use Motorcraft parts and offer on-site mobile service, providing a recurring revenue stream tied to the dealership's installed customer base. The dealership holds the Ford President's Award (2023) and self-reports as the #1 Bronco dealer in Pennsylvania based on sales volume, both claims that support its brand reputation within the Lancaster County market.
