Where to push back
Average confirmed dealer fees were $1,015.50 across the two quotes, compared with the Median state fee in Alabama of $799, the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample. Both quotes showed a single combined-fees amount rather than fully itemized dealer fees, and did not separately show government charges. Ask for an itemized written quote that breaks out dealer fees, government charges and the vehicle’s selling price before agreeing.
