What Lee Sapp Ford does

Lee Sapp Ford is an independently owned Ford franchise dealership headquartered at 1602 Silver Street, Ashland, Nebraska. The company sells new Ford vehicles across the full lineup — Mustang cars, Escape/Bronco/Bronco Sport/Edge/Explorer/Expedition SUVs, Maverick/Ranger/F-150/Super Duty trucks, Transit vans — plus an electrified sub-line of Mustang Mach-E, F-150 Lightning, Escape Hybrid, Escape Plug-In Hybrid, and Explorer Hybrid. It also retails pre-owned and certified pre-owned vehicles from Ford and other manufacturers, supplies genuine Ford and Motorcraft parts, and operates a service center staffed by factory-trained technicians. A secondary commercial-vehicle business sells Transit Connect, E-Series Cutaway, Chassis Cab, Transit CC-CA, F-650/F-750, E-Series Stripped Chassis, and E-Transit units to fleet and business buyers.

Revenue is generated across five streams: new vehicle sales (MSRP-based, current inventory spans $30,575–$84,610 with stacked Ford and dealer incentives), used vehicle sales, parts, service and maintenance labor, and financing/Ford Protect extended service plans. The go-to-market is sales-led, anchored at the single Ashland physical showroom and supplemented by online inventory browsing, financing pre-qualification, payment calculator, trade-in valuation, and service scheduling through lsford.com. Customers access Ford's connected vehicle ecosystem — FordPass app, Ford Co-Pilot 360, and BlueCruise hands-free highway driving — and a complimentary Ford Pickup & Delivery service that transports vehicles to and from the dealership for service.

Lee Sapp Ford serves retail consumers (primary) and commercial buyers (secondary) across the Ashland, Omaha, Lincoln, and Gretna markets in Nebraska. It operates under a franchise relationship with Ford Motor Company, was recognized with the Ford Presidents Award in 2025, and is privately held with 11–50 employees and no disclosed institutional investors or funding.
