The full story

Why Division One Motors, Llc earned this grade

Between December 2025 and December 2025, CarEdge negotiated or logged 4 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 things

Doc fee is genuinely reasonable

$599 is $204 below the NC average of $803. That's money you keep — most dealers in their market charge more.

Add-ons are the exception, not the rule

Only 25% of quotes include dealer-installed add-ons, averaging $500 when present. Most shoppers here never see them.

! Where to push back

1 thing

Listing price and real price disagree

Quoted prices run 8.2% above the advertised listing — roughly $2,870 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.
