Dave Long claims one day to have been homeless for 20 years, in military for 4 and herion, cocaine, meth addict who got a chance from Vern Buchanon to sell cars. He sold cars for 13 years and was given part ownership of Sarasota Ford. This makes him 52. He is 40.
Has been investigated by majority owner Vern Buchanon who told his controller last year to only give finance reports to him (not Dave Long) or face prosecution. Dave has preached ripping off customer in sales meetings and laughed about it. Refused to give company benifits such as heaith insurance to people who have a disibility.
Sarasota Ford is being sold to the Geier group who own many respected dealerships in Sarasota. He forces salesman to bring customer in to the wolves before selecting a car or face termination. There are people who beg customers to come in so they will not be fired. Managers lie consistantly.
This reporter has had 35 customers in 5 months back out of finance due to Ford being caught lying. Also I face calls daily about why they were lied too. People do not even want to see the managers with complaints because they were and will again be embaressed. Dave Long also orders his employees to buy uniforms and payroll deduct off one week draw check. Also he rehires and if owed draw money brings it back up which is ilegal. The world needs to know.
