The full story

Why Jack Ingram Motors earned this grade

Between March 2026 and March 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 1 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.

! Where to push back

1 thing

They never put a doc fee in writing

Across 1 verified quote we could not confirm a single documentation fee. Almost every dealer charges one, and the AL average is $719, so a blank here usually means the number was left off the quote rather than left off the deal. An undisclosed fee is a fee you find out about at signing, and it costs this dealer the entire fee portion of their score.

TipAsk for the doc fee as a dollar figure in writing before you go in, and make sure it appears on the out-the-door quote. If nobody will name it, treat that as the answer.

✓ What they do well:Nothing stands out as a strength in this data. That's the finding.

How we know this

Every number on this page came from a real deal.

Most dealer review sites scrape star ratings and count angry posts. We do the opposite. CarEdge shops for cars alongside thousands of real buyers every week — and when we negotiate on their behalf, we capture the full out-the-door breakdown the dealer sends back.

For Jack Ingram Motors in Montgomery, AL, that has meant 1 verified OTD quotes logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual doc fee, the actual add-ons, and the actual final price — not a salesperson's promise.

Fee Transparency

30%

Is the doc fee reasonable, or is it just profit? We compare it against the state average — and the legal cap, where one exists.

Add-on Behavior

30%

How often does the dealer stick you with mandatory add-ons like paint protection or theft deterrent — the kind you can't say no to? Add-ons the dealer discloses as optional don't count against them.

Price Accuracy

30%

Does the advertised listing price match what you'd actually sign for? We flag dealers whose out-the-door diverges from the listing.

Data Quality

10%

More data = more trustworthy grade. Dealers with lots of recent, complete quotes score higher for consistency.
