The full story
Why General Motors Llc earned this grade
Between September 2025 and March 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 3 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
1 thingDoc fee is genuinely reasonable
$0 is $102 below the CA average of $102. That's money you keep — most dealers in their market charge more.
! Where to push back
2 thingsAdd-ons show up on most deals
33% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $3,774. Expect them to try to include something — paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, VIN etching.
TipNearly all aftermarket add-ons are optional and removable. Say "please take those off the quote" and watch the OTD drop.
The listing isn't quite the price
Quoted prices run about 6.6% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $2,310 in extra fees or markup.
TipGet an OTD quote in writing before you visit. Compare it to the listing — if there's a gap, ask them to account for every line.
