The full story
Why Autonation Ford Fort Worth earned this grade
Between August 2025 and July 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 95 verified deals with this dealership. We pulled the doc fee, the add-ons, and the gap between advertised and out-the-door price from each one. Then we graded them the way a friend in the business would: on the things that actually cost you money.
✓ What they do well
4 thingsDoc fee is in line with the market
At $225, their doc fee sits at or just under the TX average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.
Add-ons are the exception, not the rule
Only 14% of quotes include dealer-installed add-ons, averaging $2,338 when present. Most shoppers here never see them.
Advertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 0.4% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.
Shoppers who negotiated saved real money
Across 3 back-and-forth negotiations we tracked here, buyers saved an average of $2,730 from first quote to final. That tells you their opening number has room.
TipNever take the first quote. Their floor is lower than what they offer on day one.
