We're not just a dealership. We're your neighbours.
A family-owned Grande Prairie dealership, three generations strong. We've looked after the Peace Country since 1946.
Who we are
Since 1946, Grande Prairie has trusted us with the vehicles that get them to work, to the lake, and home again.
It started as a single dealership on a downtown corner. Three generations later, we've never left. Through booms, busts, and a few hard winters, we keep looking after the people of the Peace Country.
Our story
From a post-war start to Canada's largest Ford store.
Seventy-five years in one town, told the way it happened. Keep scrolling to move through it.
The beginning
Where it all began.
In 1946, Windsor Motors opened its doors in Grande Prairie. It was the start of a family business that would look after the Peace Country for three generations, and counting.
On the corner
A dealership rises downtown.
A year later we built our first dealership on a downtown corner. It had a shop, offices, and a car lot, all under the Windsor name. It was the start of something that would outlast the building itself.
Becoming Ford
Grande Prairie's Ford store.
In 1962 the family joined the Ford Motor Company, and Windsor Motors became Windsor Ford. For the sixty years since, we've been the place the Peace Country comes for the trucks and SUVs that get them to work, to the lake, and home again.
Room to grow
A new home, a bigger lot.
By 1978 we had outgrown the original corner. We moved to a bigger spot to keep up with a growing city. We spent decades on Grande Prairie's Auto Row, long enough to sell to families across three generations.
Something bigger
Canada's largest Ford dealership opens.
In April 2019 we opened the doors to something bigger. It took three years to build and sits on over twelve acres just to the north. It is known as the largest Ford dealership by size anywhere in Canada.
Still family
Bigger building, same family.
Today we have forty service bays, over $2M in genuine parts on the shelf, and a showroom built to make car shopping easy. The same family still runs it, for the same community that has backed us since 1946.
What we stand for
The way a dealership ought to feel.
In 2019 we opened a modern, state-of-the-art dealership built around the customer. It has a bright, spacious showroom, forty service bays under one roof, and $2M+ in genuine parts on the shelf. It is one of the most advanced Ford stores in Canada.
But what really makes this place is the people. We are family-run, three generations deep, and proud to be from Grande Prairie. You will find us at the rink, at the rodeo, and giving back to the community that has backed us since 1946. Here, you are a neighbour, not a number.
Rooted in Grande Prairie
This town gave us everything. We give back.
Grande Prairie raised this business. Three generations of families have walked through our doors, and the people of the Peace Country have had our backs since 1946. So when it comes to giving back, it has never really felt like giving. It feels like showing up for our own.
You will find us behind a lot of local kids and youth, because they are what makes this place worth sticking around for. We are proud to back the Grande Prairie & Peace Country Junior Golf Tour, along with the Salvation Army, the Royal Canadian Legion, the Grande Prairie Petroleum Association and its events, the Grande Prairie Storm, and plenty of other teams and community groups around town.
We are also proud to support the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital Foundation and the Maskwa Medical Center going up next to the hospital, because a healthy community is one worth investing in. Grande Prairie has given us a lot over the years. Helping look after it is the least we can do.
Come see it for yourself.
