Randy Anderson, owner of Anderson Ford in Clinton tells Regional Radio he considers Mike Mangold - who owns Mangold Ford in Eureka - a friend. As Anderson considered retirement, he and his friend began discussing the sale of the dealership.

With his connections to Anderson, Mangold indicates he knows many people from Clinton. Ownership in Ford is something that runs in the family for him. 

Anderson takes pride in the fact he was involved in the community in Clinton and involved in a lot of aspects. Mangold points out Anderson was also very involved in the Ford performance side of things as well.

Mangold hopes to retain the staff Anderson has at his dealership and potentially add more.

The sale has been completed and Mangold plans to rename the dealership 'Mangold Ford of Clinton'. He is planning for a grand opening in early November.
