The full story

Why Court Street Ford earned this grade

Between September 2026 and September 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 3 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

1 thing

The price you see is the price you get

Their quoted selling price closely matches the advertised listing price. No mystery markup, no surprise "market adjustment."

! Where to push back

2 things

Not all fees are itemized

Across 3 verified quotes, we could not find every dealer fee listed as its own line with its own amount.

TipAsk for an out-the-door quote with every fee on its own line, in writing, before you go in. If they won't break it out, treat that as the answer.

Quoted add-ons show up on most deals

67% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $1,129. Plan on seeing them on your quote.

TipAsk for an itemized quote before signing, and ask the dealer to confirm in writing which add-ons, if any, are required.

How we know this

Every number on this page came from a real deal.

Most dealer review sites scrape star ratings and count angry posts. We do the opposite. CarEdge shops for cars alongside thousands of real buyers every week — and when we negotiate on their behalf, we capture the full out-the-door breakdown the dealer sends back.

For Court Street Ford in Bourbonnais, IL, that has meant 3 verified OTD quotes across 1 negotiated deals logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual doc fee, the actual add-ons, and the actual final price — not a salesperson's promise.

Fee Transparency

30%

Is the doc fee reasonable, or is it just profit? We compare it against the state average — and the legal cap, where one exists.

Add-on Behavior

30%

How often does the dealer stick you with mandatory add-ons like paint protection or theft deterrent — the kind you can't say no to? Add-ons the dealer discloses as optional don't count against them.

Price Accuracy

30%

Does the advertised listing price match what you'd actually sign for? We flag dealers whose out-the-door diverges from the listing.

Data Quality

10%

More data = more trustworthy grade. Dealers with lots of recent, complete quotes score higher for consistency.
