MILLSBORO, Del. — Preston Automotive Group celebrated one milestone and turned its eyes — and shovels — toward a new beginning. The Preston Automotive Group is thrilled to share the official start of construction on its new Ford and Lincoln dealerships! On March 27, 2024, the group marked a significant milestone by breaking ground at their new facility located off route 113 within the thriving Millsboro community. This groundbreaking event holds special significance as it coincided with the 10th anniversary of the group's acquisition of the two Boulevard locations. Back in 2014, Preston acquired the two Boulevard stores, laying the foundation for what would become a decade-long journey of growth and success. Over the years, the group has continued to build upon its legacy, earning a reputation for excellence in the automotive industry. The new Boulevard Ford and Lincoln dealerships will share property with the current Preston Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram store, creating an automotive hub that offers customers a comprehensive range of vehicles and services. The spacious 42,000-sq.ft. facility will include a large Ford Service Center with 30 service bays, including 8 for commercial vehicles, and 5 detail bays. The Lincoln dealership will feature updated design themes, including oversized glass windows for better visibility of the luxurious models at night and deluxe interior finishes reflecting the Lincoln brand. This expansion represents not only a significant investment in the local community but also a commitment to providing customers with an unparalleled automotive experience. These state-of-the-art facilities will offer incredible amenities, ensuring customers receive exceptional care from sales to service. As construction progresses, stay tuned for updates on the development of the new Ford and Lincoln dealerships in Millsboro. We can't wait to unveil these exciting additions to the Preston Automotive Group family and to continue serving the automotive needs of our valued customers in Millsboro and beyond!

“The 2019 Ford Expedition has moved away from the ideas of the traditional full-size SUV, advancing the segment in the process.” - Kelley Blue Book Kelley Blue Book recently released its “2019 Best Buy Winners” list, and the team at Preston Automotive Group is proud to say that the 2019 Ford Expedition is the winner for the Full-Size SUV category. KBB judges were thoroughly impressed by the ruggedness, performance, versatility, and comfort of this highly-popular SUV model, and we can’t blame them. The teams at Boulevard Ford of Georgetown, Boulevard Ford of Lewes, Denton Ford, Preston Ford, Pittsville Ford, and Rtown Ford are impressed by the 2019 Expedition and how it perfectly accommodates the needs of your passengers. It has a standard 3.5L EcoBoost® V6 engine that can deliver a jaw-dropping 375 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque whenever you need it. Since you deserve an SUV model that has impeccable hauling strength, the 2019 Ford Expedition has a shocking maximum towing capacity of 9,300 lbs. to easily handle whatever you need to pull. These performance statistics are just some of the many reasons why the 2019 Ford Expedition is one of the most sought-after SUV models in its class. Judges at Kelley Blue Book were really impressed by how maneuverable and nimble the 2019 Ford Expedition is considering its size. This is achieved by a large amount of high-strength aluminum engineered within the body of this SUV model and the tough high-strength steel in its frame. According to KBB, these are “innovations that caused the underpinnings and sheet metal to weigh less.” These factors allow the 2019 Expedition to make its way around tight corners or unexpected twists in the road without any concern. This SUV is able to seat up to 8 people and still have ample room for your supplies. Overall, we at PAG fully agree with the KBB judges about how outstanding the 2019 Ford Expedition truly is. But don’t just take our word for it. Visit any of our Ford dealerships and test drive one today!
