The full story
Why Dave Smith Chevrolet GMC earned this grade
Between November 2025 and May 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
2 thingsDoc fee is genuinely reasonable
$200 is $198 below the ID average of $398. That's money you keep — most dealers in their market charge more.
The price you see is the price you get
Their quoted selling price almost exactly matches the advertised listing price. No mystery markup, no surprise "market adjustment."
! Where to push back
1 thingQuoted add-ons show up on many deals
33% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $83. Expect to see items like paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, or VIN etching on your quote.
TipAsk which items are genuinely required and which are dealer-added. Anything not required by the manufacturer or the state is worth pushing on.

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 Dave Smith Chevrolet GMC in Kellogg, ID, that has meant 3 verified OTD quotes 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.

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.
