✓ What they do well
1 thingAdvertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 1.2% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.
! Where to push back
2 thingsDoc fee is significantly inflated
$735 is $215 above the SC average of $520. That's pure margin for the dealer, not cost of service.
TipThis fee is mostly not "standard paperwork" — it's profit. Push back, or get the equivalent off the vehicle price.
Quoted add-ons show up on most deals
67% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $864. Plan on seeing them on your quote.
