    Bedford Sales Morris, Illinois

    Hi all,

    I have found a used boat in Morris, Illinois at a dealer by the name of Bedford sales. The deal on the boat is pretty good and they said they won't let it go out the door until they fully inspected it. I am wondering if anyone has ever delt with Bedford and can share their experience. Thanks.

    I have purchased new and used boats from them. Honest on price and how long service will take. I wouldn't hesitate buying from them.

    I highly recomend Bedford !! Sam the owner is there often and will always remember you when yu come in. They stand behind their boats both new and used. If you found a boat there and the price is where you want it , buy with confidence.

    Sam is a good man and a friend to bass fishermen. He has been around for a long time and enjoys a very good reputation. You can see from the remarks above that you will be treated well.

    Would you want to store it there and test drive it - weather permitting - in the spring?

    Ideally, but I'd be afraid it'd sell to someone else. Its a pretty attractive deal on the boat I am interested in. When I talked to Sam he seemed to think there was enough open water on the river to test drive it.

    Its in the 40's here for the next couple weeks. You'll be able to test it no issue. Might even have to move the the walleye fisherman aside to make a run lol.

    Sam was supposed to be taking it out on the water today! With some luck it ran like a champ and I'll be picking it up on Saturday.

    Purchased 2 boats from them. Easy to work with and Sam cares about the customers.

    Well apparently the river at Morris was too high today and the boat ramps were closed so they didn’t get to run it. Hoping the river is down tomorrow.
