The full story

Why Mauer GMC earned this grade

Mauer GMC received a D based on a small sample of 2 quotes in September 2026. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices, and whether charges were clearly shown.

What they do well

No specific pricing or fee strength is supported by these quotes.

Where to push back

Average confirmed dealer fees were $1,361.50 across the 2 quotes. Both were above the Median state fee in Minnesota of $350, the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample. Both quotes showed a single unclear combined-fees amount rather than fully itemized dealer fees; that does not establish what any individual fee was for.

Before agreeing, ask for an updated itemized written quote that breaks out each dealer fee and lists taxes and government charges separately. Also ask the dealer to confirm the vehicle’s selling price against its advertised price.

How we know this

Every number on this page came from a real deal.

For Mauer GMC in Inver Grove Heights, MN, that has meant 2 verified OTD quotes from the past year logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual dealer fees, the actual add-ons, and the final price against the advertised price — not a salesperson's promise.

Only quotes from the past year count. We split them into four groups, newest first: the newest counts 50%, then 30%, 15% and 5%.
