✓ What they do well
2 thingsDoc fee is in line with the market
At $200, their doc fee sits at or just under the WA average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.
Advertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 0.7% 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 dealer add-ons, averaging $1,294. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.
TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything. Every add-on is optional — refuse them unless you actually want them.
