Our Story

Committed to exceptional guest service.

Since 1995 Calgarians have trusted Advantage Ford with their vehicle needs. We have one of the largest Ford inventories in Southern Alberta. As an award winning performance specialist Advantage has the best selection of Mustangs and F-150 Raptors. You might say Advantage Ford is built for affordability and luxury, but with a need for speed.

Advantage Ford is part of the Wood Automotive Group. The company includes eight full-service dealerships, All Makes Collision Centre, Wood Auto Rentals, Calvacade Auto Acceptance and the Calgary MEGAlot, our online store. Gerry Wood, founder and president of the Wood Automotive Group built our state-of-the-art dealership on a bald stretch of land in Calgary’s deep south. Advantage is part of the vibrant mixed-use community that has grown up around us.

In 2017 Advantage Ford completed a major renovation expanding our showroom and adding more service bays and a service drive-through. Now we offer you the flexibility of no-appointment oil changes.

Advantage Ford has a proud record of success in sales and service. We are 7-year consecutive winners of the Ford President’s Award and Ford President’s Award Diamond Club. These prestigious awards recognize top sales and top customer satisfaction.

Gerry Wood and his family greatly support the community with the PREP program, Shaw Charity Classic and more. Come down to Advantage Ford today and see why Albertans choose us for all their vehicle needs. And remember.....anything can happen at Advantage Ford.
