How we know this

Every number on this page came from a real deal.

For Diamond Buick GMC of Alexandria in Alexandria, MN, that has meant 2 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.
