I've bought Fords from 3 different dealers in Burlington-Hamilton (also west of Greater Toronto Area) over the years, they've all been fair with the sale to me, and I've come to expect nothing after the purchase. I very much prefer getting EVERYTHING done at a private garage where I can actually speak to the mechanic. As this is a mainstream vehicle, the independents know what they need to know, or they learn quick.
As for where to buy, do your research but listento your gut too. Good luck!
