The full story

Why Buhler Jeep Chrysler Dodge Ram Fiat earned this grade

Then we graded them the way a friend in the business would: on the things that actually cost you money.

! Where to push back

3 things

Doc fee is slightly padded

$825 is $116 above the NJ average of $709. Not outrageous, but worth questioning.

TipFactor it into your overall price — every dollar here is negotiable.

Mandatory add-ons show up on most deals

50% of quotes include add-ons presented as non-negotiable, averaging $375. Expect them to try to include something — paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, VIN etching.

TipAsk which items are genuinely required and which are dealer-added. Anything not required by the manufacturer or the state is worth pushing on.

Listing price and real price disagree

Quoted prices run 8.4% above the advertised listing — roughly $2,940 extra on a $35k vehicle. That's a pattern, not a rounding error.

TipThis dealer's listing price is a marketing number, not a real one. Don't anchor to it — anchor to an out-the-door target.

What they do well:Nothing stands out as a strength in this data. That's the finding.

Add-on Behavior

30%
