About AJ

More than a car salesman

I'm AJ Shears, the guy behind AJ Sells Fords. I built it with one goal: to make buying, owning and understanding a vehicle easier.

The car business can be confusing. Interest rates, incentives, trade values, negative equity, warranties, trims, towing capacities, new technology — there's a lot to know before one of the biggest purchases most people will ever make.

I want to be the person who helps make it simple.

My mission

Become the #1 Ford salesman in the country.

To me, being #1 isn't just about selling the most vehicles. It means serving the most people — being someone customers can call before, during and long after they buy. It means a reputation built on knowledge, transparency, consistency and service.

Every customer, delivery, video, comment, referral and follower is part of that journey.

Why AJ Sells Fords exists

This isn't just pictures of vehicles for sale. It's a resource for anyone who drives:

Car-buying advice

How financing, interest rates, trade values, incentives and vehicle pricing actually work.

Ford news and education

New vehicles, technology, model changes, Ford history and the stories behind the Blue Oval.

Truck and SUV knowledge

Towing, payload, engines, trims, off-road packages, comparisons and real-world ownership.

Market updates

What's happening in the auto industry and what it could mean for buyers.

Real deals

When there's an opportunity I believe buyers should know about, I'll tell you.

An educated customer makes a better decision. Even if you never buy from me, I want AJ Sells Fords to make you a smarter owner and buyer.

How I do business

Sales should start with service. That means listening before recommending, explaining the numbers instead of hiding them, helping you understand your options instead of pressuring you, and being there after the sale.

Whatever you need, you have someone you can call:

Your Ford guy

I'm based in Lakeland, Florida, but AJ Sells Fords is being built for something bigger than one dealership or one city — to become one of the most trusted Ford resources on social media while helping customers locally and beyond. I'm documenting the whole journey publicly: the wins, the lessons, the vehicles, the customers and the road to #1.

Whether you're ready to buy today, thinking about trading in six months, or you just love cars and trucks — welcome. I'm glad you're here.
