The full story

Why Fred Beans Lincoln earned this grade

Fred Beans Lincoln has a B grade; CarEdge reviewed four quotes from December 2025 through July 2026. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices, and whether charges were clearly shown.

What they do well

  • ✓ Dealer fees were clearly itemized. All four quotes showed fully itemized dealer fees, averaging $486.75. That is slightly below the Median state fee in PA ($490), the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample.

Where to push back

All four quotes included required extras, averaging $299. Ask which extras apply to your specific vehicle, whether any can be removed, and to see their itemized cost in your written offer. Also ask for an itemized written quote showing the vehicle selling price, dealer fees, required extras, taxes, and government charges before agreeing.

How we know this

Every number on this page came from a real deal.

Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual dealer fees, the actual add-ons, and the final price against the advertised price — not a salesperson's promise.

Only quotes from the past year count. We split them into four groups, newest first: the newest counts 50%, then 30%, 15% and 5%.
