The full story

Why Bill Knight Lincoln earned this grade

Between June 2026 and July 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 7 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.

What they do well

1 thing

Doc fee is in line with the market

At $499, their doc fee sits at or just under the OK average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.

! Where to push back

1 thing

Add-ons are baked into almost every deal

71% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $199. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.

TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything. Every add-on is optional — refuse them unless you actually want them.
