The full story
Why Freeway Ford earned this grade
Between November 2025 and September 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 13 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 in line with the market
At $538, their doc fee sits at or just under the CO average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.
Advertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 0.5% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.
! Where to push back
1 thingMandatory add-ons show up on most deals
46% of quotes include add-ons presented as non-negotiable, averaging $1,149. Expect them to try to include something — paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, VIN etching.
TipAsk which items are genuinely required and which are dealer-added. Anything not required by the manufacturer or the state is worth pushing on.
