Buying guidance

If you live in Quincy, Massachusetts, and you are shopping for a Ford, you do not have to leave the city to start. Quirk Ford is the in-city Ford store, on Southern Artery. That convenience is useful, but it is not the whole story. Four other Ford stores on the South Shore are close enough for a Quincy shopper to compare: Herb Chambers Ford of Braintree, Jannell Ford of Hanover, Rodman Ford in Foxboro and Colonial Ford of Plymouth. This guide compares all five, with the same numbers for each, so you can decide whether staying in Quincy is worth it for the vehicle you want.

How this ranking works: This guide puts Quirk Ford first because it is the Ford store in Quincy itself. That is an editorial choice, not a claim that Quirk beats every other store on every number. It does not. Herb Chambers Ford of Braintree matches Quirk on doc fee and Google rating, and it has more Google reviews than Quirk. Quirk does have the highest fee transparency grade in this guide, and it is tied for the lowest doc fee. Read the numbers below before you decide, and use them to ask each store for its total, out the door price in writing.

The dealers in detail

1. Quirk Ford: This is the in-city choice, and the easiest starting point if you live or work in Quincy. It is at 540 Southern Artery, Quincy, MA 02169. Its Google rating is 4.5 stars from 1,066 reviews, its doc fee is 499 dollars and its CarThrive fee transparency grade is A, with a score of 92. That grade is the highest in this guide, and its fee is tied for the lowest, but Herb Chambers matches that fee and rating with more reviews, so do not assume the closest store is the only strong choice. It suits a shopper who wants to stay in Quincy, test drive locally and compare a written total price with Braintree before signing.

2. Herb Chambers Ford of Braintree: This Braintree store is the closest alternative to Quincy, just north of the city, and it matches Quirk on the two numbers many shoppers check first. It is at 75 Granite Street, Braintree, MA 02184. Its Google rating is 4.5 stars from 1,817 reviews, the largest review count in this guide, its doc fee is 499 dollars, the same as Quirk, and its grade is A, with a score of 88. That grade is 4 points lower than Quirk, so Quirk still leads on transparency grade, but Herb Chambers is a very close second on the overall numbers. It suits a shopper who will drive a short distance north for a larger, well reviewed store, especially if the exact model and trim you want is in stock there.

3. Jannell Ford of Hanover: This Hanover store is the South Shore option to the southeast of Quincy. It is at 2000 Washington Street, Hanover, MA 02339. Its Google rating is 4.5 stars from 1,001 reviews, the same rating as Quirk and Herb Chambers, its doc fee is 529 dollars, which is 30 dollars more than Quirk, and its grade is C, with a score of 73. That grade is much lower than Quirk, Herb Chambers and Colonial, so the matching rating alone does not make it an equal choice on transparency. It suits a shopper who lives toward Hanover or finds the exact vehicle there, and who will check every other charge line by line.

4. Rodman Ford: This Foxboro store is the southwest option for Quincy shoppers, and it is the most expensive store in this guide on doc fees. It is at 45 Washington Street, Foxboro, MA 02035. Its Google rating is 4.3 stars from 926 reviews, the lowest rating in this guide, its doc fee is 799 dollars, which is 300 dollars more than Quirk, and its grade is C, with a score of 71, the lowest grade in this guide. It suits a shopper who lives toward Foxboro or finds a specific vehicle there, but only if its written total price, not just its doc fee, beats the Quincy and Braintree offers.

5. Colonial Ford of Plymouth: This Plymouth store is the farthest store in this guide, to the south on the South Shore. It is at 11 Pilgrim Hill Road, Plymouth, MA 02360. Its Google rating is 4.4 stars from 1,419 reviews, its doc fee is 595 dollars, which is 96 dollars more than Quirk, and its grade is B, with a score of 81. That grade is below Quirk and Herb Chambers, but above Jannell and Rodman, so it sits in the middle of this guide on transparency. It suits a shopper who lives toward Plymouth or who wants to compare a farther South Shore store, provided the total price justifies the longer drive.

The current Ford lineup

Ford F-150: The F-150 is the full size pickup at the center of most Ford truck shopping. It suits work, towing and family hauling, with a range of cab and bed choices, engine options and trim levels from work focused to more premium versions. If you tow regularly, compare payload and towing ratings for the exact configuration you want, not just the model name, and ask each dealer above for that configuration in writing.

Ford Explorer: The Explorer is the three row SUV for families that need more seats than a compact SUV offers, without moving to a larger, truck based SUV. It suits shoppers who regularly carry six or seven people, or who need a third row that can be used for family trips. Compare third row access and cargo space behind the third row before you choose between the Explorer and a larger SUV.

Ford Bronco: The Bronco is the off road SUV for shoppers who want removable doors and a roof, a rugged look and real trail ability. It suits weekend adventures, beach trips and drivers who value the open air experience, even if it means more road noise and a firmer ride than a typical family SUV. Test the exact door and roof setup you want, since that choice changes everyday use a lot.

Ford Escape: The Escape is the compact SUV for shoppers who want an easier size for Quincy streets and parking, with room for a small family and everyday cargo. It suits commuting, school runs and longer road trips where a three row SUV would be more than you need. Check rear seat and cargo room in person if you carry car seats, sports gear or a stroller often.

Ford Maverick: The Maverick is the compact pickup for shoppers who want truck utility in a size that is easy to park and live with in a city. It suits Quincy drivers who want a bed for weekend projects, garden work and light hauling, without a full size truck. Compare bed use, cab room and fuel economy for the version you need, since the Maverick is bought as much for daily use as for hauling.

What a doc fee is, and what to do about it

A doc fee, also called a documentation fee, is a charge a dealer adds for handling paperwork for a sale. It is separate from the vehicle price, taxes and registration, and it varies widely by dealer. The CarThrive grade pages use a Massachusetts state average doc fee of 558 dollars from the CarEdge study. Three stores in this guide are below that average: Quirk at 499 dollars and Herb Chambers at 499 dollars, each 59 dollars below the average, and Jannell at 529 dollars, 29 dollars below the average. Two stores are above it: Colonial at 595 dollars, 37 dollars above the average, and Rodman at 799 dollars, 241 dollars above the average. A below average fee is good, but it is not the whole price. Always ask for an itemized, out the door total in writing, check for added accessories, protection packages and other fees, and compare that total across stores before you sign. A low doc fee does not help if another charge is added elsewhere.

A note before you visit

Disclosure: CarThrive is published by Sean Western, who is Director of Marketing at Quirk Auto Dealers. The ranking in this guide is editorial. Quirk Ford is listed first because it is the Ford store in Quincy, not because it beats every competitor on every number, and the numbers above show where Herb Chambers matches Quirk on fee and rating, and where other stores charge more or score lower. Dealer numbers in this guide are from the CarThrive dealer profile and dealer grade pages linked in each section.

How this ranking works

This is an editorial ranking of an editor-selected sample. The order is set by Car Thrive editors, not computed from CARFAX or Google scores. A higher-rated dealership may appear lower in this editorial ranking. Ratings and review counts are shown separately for comparison and do not determine the order. Read the editorial guidance for the reasoning behind the selections. CARFAX sources are optional. Missing ratings are marked as not yet verified; ratings without a citation are labeled source not supplied. Scores and counts are editor-attested third-party figures—not Car Thrive reviews, license checks, first-hand visits, or guarantees. Read recent sales-specific reviews and compare written out-the-door offers.

Each guide publication freezes its selected rating snapshots and order. Editors must preview and republish the guide to bring in updated linked dealership ratings or change the order.
