Gabe Atherton

Gabe and the team did a great job. They worked with me on getting a great deal and I appreciate the time and effort they put into push pushing the deal across the finish line.

I had an amazing experience working with Gabe! From start to finish, he made the entire car buying process smooth, stress-free, and actually enjoyable. He was super knowledgeable, patient, and never made me feel pressured at any point. Gabe really took the time to understand what I was looking for and helped me find the perfect car. His professionalism and genuine attitude made all the difference. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and goes above and beyond, Gabe is your guy. Highly recommend!

Outstanding staff. Gabe (sales) had a very high level of product knowledge. Not one question I had went unanswered. I got a very fair deal on the trade and purchase.

Gabe offered a no pressure truck buying experience. He found several trucks for me to pick from. I would buy from Gabe & Donley Ford again.

I was in a bind recently because I impressively hit three deer within a week time frame and totaled my car. I had bought my vehicle from Donley Ford and had GAP insurance. I contacted Gabe about the situation. He went above and beyond to help me out as well as get me into a new vehicle! The entire staff was great and Gabe went above and beyond for me. I couldn't ask for a better experience!

Gabe has been absolutely wonderful. He made the process as seamless as possible. Everyone at Donley was very friendly. It was also the quickest I've ever been in and out of a dealership. Would recommend Gabe to anyone and I would return to buy another vehicle without hesitation.

I dealt with Gabe and had a really good experience buying a vehicle! I definitely recommend the entire team!

Gabe reached out by text when I indicated I was interested in an advertised vehicle. That specific one had already been sold but he made me aware of others not yet posted to their inventory. He kept me informed and invited me to visit and look it over. Gabe was friendly and polite, eager to answer all my many questions. I was concerned that the Expedition might not fit into my garage, he allowed me to take the vehicle , 27 miles, to my home to test it out. Yay, it fit in my garage!! Gabe was a pleasure to work with and made this purchase easy.

Gabe was excellent! He was honest and made sure we were heard about what SUV we wanted. 10/10 recommend! We love our 2025 Expedition!

Gabe was in touch right away and was pretty flexible with me. I found what I wanted and he made it happen. I looked at one car and he didn’t try to sell me on anything else so I appreciate that. He was transparent with me and the whole experience was rather painless and now I have a car I love.

My wife purchased her new car from Donley and Gabe was a great salesman,he didn't pressure us and made use feel comfortable during the whole process, Gabe constantly asked if we needed anything and answered all of our questions. If you looking for a new car Gabe is the guy to ask for, I would definitely recommend him.

Chad and Gabe were fantastic. Drove3 hours to get a great truck with great people.

My man Gabe was an absolute gentleman and professional during my transaction at Donley. After talking to many salesman over months on a vehicle hunt, Gabe was by far the most helpful and made what can be a stressful transaction smooth as butter! Not only that he made a great recommendation to a local restaurant that my family and I enjoyed after our fresh truck purchase! I appreciate you Gabe and would 10/10 do business again with you!

Gabe was very helpful! Very smooth sales process. Fantastic car!

Excellent place to do business. Very friendly and straightforward. Went above and beyond what they had to do to make me feel comfortable. Best car buying experience I’ve ever had and I’ve had a few in my 63 years. The salesman Gabe was not pushy and addressed all my concerns.

Gabe gave us a phenomenal experience! Very honest and easy to work with!

He was knowledgeable, honest, and really took the time to make sure I found the right vehicle without any pressure.The process was smooth from start to finish, and I left feeling confident and happy with my purchase.

I just bought a car from here with Gabe! The experience was some of the easiest and best car shopping experience I’ve had! Gabe was very nice and patient with me. He understood what I wanted and made sure it happened! I would definitely recommend anyone buying a car from here. Gabe was very knowledgeable as well and walked me through every step on what was going on.

Gabe was really nice throughout the entire experience. We had gone over for a couple of days to find the right car and He was patient through the whole experience. He was knowledgeable about the car we decided on. All in all a great experience. Thank you for the great car and fun times.

Went here not expecting to find anything but had the car I was looking for and the consultant we had Gabe was super helpful and informative.

I purchased my vehicle from Donley Ford. The staff went out of their way to help and was very pleasant to deal with. As for my salesperson Gabe he was the best. He helped pick out the right car for me. He was friendly very helpful, and made sure I was satisfied with what I was purchasing. Gabe is the best. Thank you to Gabe and the rest of the staff that was involved with the purchase of my Ford Escape, I’m in love with with my new vehicle.

When I sent an inquiry about a Kia Carnival van, Gabe reached out to me via text. He sent a personalized video with the exact van I was asking about. Many times when contacting a dealership about a vehicle that is on their website, the vehicle is not actually at that location but they would like you to still stop by to to sell you something comparable. Anyhow, Gabe answered all my questions that I had via text before we went to look at it. He gave me a no hassle price and stuck to it. While at the dealership I felt absolutely no pressure to buy. After looking at some numbers, we decided to purchase the van and everyone we dealt with was just as honest and kind. I would not hesitate at all to come back to Donely Ford for my next vehicle.

Gabe worked hard for me as I was trying to get the best deal on their truck and the best trade in $$ for my truck he was very accommodating as I live and hour and a half from their store, he was very friendly and I could tell he just wanted me to get the best deal there was not any high pressure sales tactics just a professional attitude, it was great working with him I would buy from him again thank you Gabe!

I recently purchased a Lincoln Aviator and had the pleasure of working with Gabe. From start to finish, he made the entire car buying experience smooth and stress free. He was friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about the vehicle, answering all of my questions with patience and clarity. What stood out most was how effortless he made the process, no pressure, just guidance and support. Thanks to his professionalism and expertise, I drove away confident and excited about my Aviator. I highly recommend Gabe to anyone looking for a positive and enjoyable car buying experience!

Gabe Atherton’s customer service is outstanding! He was so kind & accommodating. Gabe’s communication was great - very quick & thorough. We would definitely buy from him again!

Gabe is a great salesman to work with. Very patient and understanding. A complete joy to work with. Dealership is very professional.

I went to Donely not knowing what kind of car I wanted. I met with Gabe, he was very patient and knowledgeable. He let me take my time and look at all the different cars. Ask for Gabe you won't be disappointed!

My husband and I just bought a Grand Cherokee from Donley Ford. We have bought several vehicles from them. Never any issues. Gabe was our salesperson, very easy to talk with, honest and down to earth. We appreciate you Gabe!

I recently purchased a new truck and had an exceptional experience thanks to Gabe and Gage at the dealership. Gabe, our salesperson, was incredibly helpful and responsive from the very beginning. He answered all of our questions ahead of time, which made the in-person process smooth and efficient. His professionalism and dedication to customer service really stood out. Gage, the finance specialist, was equally impressive. He took the time to walk us through every detail of the financing process, ensuring we fully understood everything before finalizing the paperwork. His clear communication and patience made a potentially stressful part of the process feel easy and transparent. Overall, both Gabe and Gage went above and beyond to make this a great experience.

We had a great experience getting our Ford Expedition with Gabe! Gabe was wonderful. We brought our two youngest children (a 2 year old and 5 month old) with us, and he was happy to include them in the process. Gabe was very knowledgeable about the vehicle and happy to answer any questions. We loved our experience and would recommend working with Gabe!

Go see Gabe

Gabe and team were awesome to work with! Love the Expedition!! Thank you!

Gabe was awesome we will come back and do business again

Worked with Gabe who was able to work within my budget and was willing to negotiate an excellent deal for my new truck.

Worked with Gabe Atherton buying my new F150. Very knowledgeable and easy to work with. 100% recommend.

Shopping at Donley Ford was an excellent experience. Gabe was great from start to finish. Definitely never felt pressure and the process was straightforward. I would certainly buy from Donley again.

Gabe was great, we got a fair deal and they were willing to work with us! Thank you! We are so happy with our new to us Expedition Max!

Effortless transaction! Gabe was absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend using him!

Gabe went above and beyond and exceeded our expectations!

Gabe and Gage were very professional and easy to work with. Answered all my questions in depth and made the process very easy.

Great buying experience. Gabe was a great salesman. He walked me through the ordering process and stayed engaged over the 2-3 months from first interaction to order to delivery. They even found me a financing option that was far better than what I had found on my own through extensive research.

Found EXACTLY what we were looking for. Gabe was so very helpful and took the time to explain everything and answer all our questions. He's an amazing salesman. Second time buying a vehicle and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a vehicle. And we accidentally showed up at closing time but it did not matter.

What a wonderful experience buying a new truck through Donley Ford! I am so impresed with the professionalism and integrity of everyone i interacted with. My first contact with DJ was fantastic. When i decided to proceed with a purchase she enlisted Gabe Atherton to help me understand the different trim packages and options on the Ford Maverick. Gabe is the best salesman i’ve ever encountered buying a new vehicle and he was able to make me feel comfortable every step along the way. These new trucks have complicated trim packages and options and you won’t find anyone more knowledgeable than Gabe. He broke it down, so I could understand it, and make an intelligent decision. Gabe is very smart and a great communicator. But the professionalism did not end there. I worked with Gage in financing and he helped me find the best pricing, interest rates, and extended warranty options. I was not expecting that kind of help from the finance department. I guess what impressed me the most was the helpfulness and integrity from everyone at Donley throughout the entire process. What a great team and well-managed business!!! You won’t find a better one…

I can not express how amazing Gabe and the whole team at Donley were today. The process was quicker than expected and I got the car I wanted! I will definitely be recommending them to everyone.

Thanks Gabe for making the purchase fast and easy!! Highly recommend Gabe!!!!

Gabe was polite, Informational and made sure I was making the better choices in the car buying experience. Didn’t frown upon me or treat me poorly and thankfully I’ll be taking home a beautiful 21” BMW 3 Series. Meets my needs and looks amazing!

My son needed to buy a car and Gabe Atherton worked with him to find the best scenario for him. Gabe is Awesome!

Gabe was the best. He did everything in his power to help me out. It was the best experience. Thank you for everything

Gabe was absolutely fantastic throughout the process

Gabe did great in getting me in my new vehicle! I would recommend Donley Ford next time you are in the market!

The sales staff, and Gabe in particular, is so friendly and helpful. We had an accident and Gabe was so empathetic and concerned about us. His patience and understanding were very much appreciated. His help In putting us in our dream vehicle was seamless. He helped decide between what we needed and what I thought I wanted. I recommend this dealership to everyone.

Gabe did a fantastic job helping us find the right car. He was friendly, helpful, and authentic. I highly recommend seeing Gabe if you are looking for a new car

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Donley Ford of Mount Vernon and purchase a vehicle with the assistance of Gabe Atherton and I must say, the experience was outstanding. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the knowledgeable and friendly. He took the time to listen to my needs, concerns regarding a car I wanted to purchase and provided expert advice on the vehicle description. What impressed me the most was the transparency and honesty exhibited throughout the process. Not only did they complete the purchase experience promptly, but he also went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and confident in the purchase of the vehicle. I highly recommend Donley to anyone in need of reliable and trustworthy sales team.Their exceptional service, expertise, and dedication to customer satisfaction have earned my trust and loyalty. Thank you Gabe.

Gabe Atherton the sales representative that helped me purchase my new vehicle goes above and beyond and it was my utmost pleasure to work with him along the sometimes arduous process of purchasing a new ride.

I want to give a huge shout-out to Gabe at Donley Ford in Mt. Vernon, Ohio. Buying a new car at Donley was the best decision and experience I have ever had. I am extremely pleased with my new Ford Explorer ST and the customer service I received. The process was fast and smooth. I was not pressured nor hounded by him or the finance manager. They gave me a GREAT deal on the price!!! Donley has definitely earned my business on future purchases. Gabe as well as the entire Donley staff went above and beyond with their customer service. I even called back a day later to purchase specialized floor mats and Gabe handled everything! Thanks, Gabe!!! Your customer service is AMAZING!!!

Overall great experience! Only drawback is the vehicle could have been detailed a little more thoroughly. Would buy from again, Gabe did a great job!

Great service and chat with Gabe Atherton on buying my new car highly recommend

Finally in a position to buy a Ford Bronco, now the problem was finding one. Donely Ford called me in the morning last week and let me know they had the exact one I was looking for, and held it till I got there that night. We worked with Gabe who was quick and worked with us to get to our price point. Went through a lot of nastiness with our dealerships looking for broncos, but the Donely team made it fast and easy.

We are very pleased with our purchasing experience today. Gabe was first class, best salesman we've ever worked with. We found our new Sales/Parts/Service family. Thank You!!!

Gabe did great, highly recommend. Donley was a great environment and friendly staff. Great experience.

Good, honest and straightforward experience. Gabe was very helpful and clearly knowledgeable on cars in general but very much so on what cars were in the lot.

I have purchased many cars and trucks during my lifetime, and I honestly have to say that Gabe is the nicest and most courteous salesman I have ever dealt with. He made our car buying experience pleasurable, and easy without any pressure. Also, the finance, and general manager did an outstanding job of finding is the best interest. I would also like to mention how much I appreciate their service department. I’ve always received top notch service there, and Tina is the best!
