! Where to push back
2 thingsDoc fee exceeds the state cap
Their typical doc fee of $635 is above OH's legal cap of $398. This is a red flag — every dealer in the state must stay at or below this number.
TipTell them you expect the doc fee at $398 or lower. It's not optional; it's the law.
The listing isn't quite the price
Quoted prices run about 5.3% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $1,855 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.
