Ken Grody Ford of Redlands sits on West Colton Avenue, giving Inland Empire drivers a Ford dealership near Redlands built specifically around commercial and fleet vehicles. We work with contractors, utility crews, and business owners who need a truck configured for a specific job rather than something pulled off a general retail lot. Ken Grody Fleet has operated since 2003 and grown into one of the highest-volume fleet dealerships in Southern California, and Redlands sits close enough to our Inland Empire location that most local drivers reach us in a short trip across town.

Our fleet department carries more than 95 combined years of industry experience, led by Dean Nissen, our Director of Fleet, who spent 22 years at Carmenita Truck Center before helping build this division. That depth of experience is part of why so many Redlands businesses keep coming back for their next truck. Anyone curious about how the department is structured can check our about us page, and past customers have left feedback on our reviews page. We also handle nationwide and overseas delivery, including Hawaii, with the shipping cost built into the payment instead of billed separately.
Our inventory spans a wide range of commercial builds, including chassis cabs, stakebeds, and combo trucks, along with specialty categories like water trucks and saw trucks for more specific trade needs. Buyers looking for something faster can also check out our KG Custom and Roush lineups. For a lower price point, our used vehicles inventory includes trucks with real working history, and the full new vehicles lineup covers everything currently on our Redlands-area lot.
Financing a commercial vehicle depends heavily on how the business plans to use it, which is why our two commercial and business finance managers work through the specifics with each Redlands customer instead of running everyone through a standard retail process. A lot of buyers start by finding out what their current vehicle is worth through our trade-in value tool. From there, our finance center lays out the basic steps involved in getting a commercial vehicle on the road.
Our service department is staffed with diesel technicians, transmission specialists, and heavy equipment machinists, giving Redlands fleets access to a level of service depth beyond a typical retail Ford shop. Genuine OEM parts go into everything from oil changes and tire rotations to brake work and transmission repairs. Businesses that cannot afford downtime can use our Ford Pro mobile service, which brings maintenance directly to the vehicle. Our maintenance schedule lays out what most vehicles need and when.
Redlands sits at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains and carries a strong citrus farming history, with packing houses and groves that once defined the local economy still shaping parts of the landscape today. The city is also home to the University of Redlands and a downtown built around well-preserved Victorian and Craftsman architecture, giving it a different character than many of its Inland Empire neighbors. Redlands has grown into a logistics and distribution hub in recent years, with warehouses and trucking operations spreading out along its edges. Those businesses are exactly the kind that end up needing a properly equipped commercial truck rather than a standard passenger vehicle.
