The full story

Why Inver Grove Ford earned this grade

Inver Grove Ford is graded A based on 7 verified quotes from September 2026. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and whether charges were clearly shown.

What they do well

  • ✓ Fees were itemized — All 7 quotes showed fully itemized dealer fees, averaging $350. That equals the Median state fee in MN, the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample.
  • ✓ Some advertised prices were closely matched — Two of the three comparable written quotes were within $1 of the advertised vehicle price.

Where to push back
