The full story
Why Hyman Bros. Automobiles earned this grade
Between January 2026 and September 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
2 thingsDoc fee is in line with the market
At $832, their doc fee is within $5 of the VA average of $827. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.
Advertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 1.9% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.
! Where to push back
1 thingAdd-ons are baked into almost every deal
67% of quotes include add-ons the buyer couldn't remove. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $199. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.
TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything, and ask them to justify every "required" charge in writing.
