Chesterton, Indiana

Ford Dealer Near Chesterton, IN

More than 1,000 new Fords fifteen miles down 49, a sales floor open until 9 PM, and a service department built for diesel and commercial work. We are not the closest Ford store to Chesterton. Here is what is here that is not there.

Chesterton Has a Ford Store. Why Drive to Valparaiso?

Chesterton has a Ford dealership of its own, and we are not the nearest store to you. That is the honest starting point, so the rest of this page is about the reasons people make the drive anyway.

It is about fifteen miles, and both towns sit in Porter County. South on State Route 49, west on US-30, and you are at our front door in roughly twenty minutes outside of rush hour. For most Chesterton buyers the drive is not the deciding factor. The inventory, the hours, and whether the service department can actually do the work are the deciding factors.

More than 1,000 new Fords on the ground

As of this writing our new inventory sits at over 1,000 vehicles. That is the number our own inventory page reports, and you can check it yourself before you leave the house. It means the F-150 configuration you want is more likely to be here than ordered, and it means you can compare two trims side by side in one afternoon instead of across two trips.

Open until 9 PM

Sales is open until 9 PM Monday through Friday and until 7 PM on Saturday. If you are coming off a shift at Burns Harbor or getting back from Chicago on the South Shore, you are not racing us to close. Service bays open at 7 AM Monday through Saturday, so a drop-off can happen before work rather than instead of it.

A service department set up for heavy work

Heavy-duty lifts rated for dual-rear-wheel Super Duty trucks, bays sized for medium-duty chassis, Ford diesel-certified technicians for 6.7L Power Stroke work, a Ford-certified collision center on site, and Ford EV service for Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning. Most of that is equipment, not staffing, which means it either exists at a store or it does not.

Ford Pro Commercial Vehicle Center

We are a Ford Pro Commercial Vehicle Center, which covers commercial and medium-duty work, upfit coordination, and Ford Pro Mobile Service that comes to a job site or a facility instead of you bringing the truck in. If a truck is how you earn, that designation is the part that matters.

Service that can come to you

Ford Pickup and Delivery is a complimentary program on qualifying service, subject to availability and distance, and Ford Pro Mobile Service handles routine maintenance and light repair at your home, job site, or facility. Call service at (219) 234-2169 and we will tell you whether your address qualifies before you plan around it.

4.7 across more than 5,900 Google reviews

That is a volume of feedback it takes years to accumulate, and it is far harder to move, or to game, than a few hundred recent ratings. The reviews are public and we do not curate them. Read them before you decide the drive is worth it.

Specialty Vehicles Built and Serviced Here

We are an authorized ROUSH Performance dealer and an authorized ROUSH Performance service dealer. The distinction matters more than it sounds: plenty of stores will order a modified truck for you, but the service authorization is what determines where the warranty work gets done afterward.

Authorized

ROUSH Performance

Sales and service. ROUSH Mustangs, F-150s, and Bronco packages, built and warrantied here rather than shipped out for the work, with nationwide shipping available on specialty vehicles.

Trucks, Shift Work, and a 7 AM Service Bay

Chesterton sits between the Burns Harbor mill and the South Shore line into Chicago, and that shapes what a dealership needs to be able to do. A shift that ends at 6 PM does not pair well with a showroom that closes at 6 PM. A work truck that has to be running Monday does not pair well with a service department that cannot lift it.

So the two things we built around are hours and capability. Sales until 9 PM on weeknights. Bays open at 7 AM six days a week. Diesel certification for Power Stroke work, lifts rated for dual-rear-wheel Super Duty, and bays sized for medium-duty chassis. Mobile service for the jobs that do not need the truck to come to us at all.

None of that is about being the closest store. It is about being open when you are free and equipped for what you drive.
