Where to push back
Average confirmed dealer fees were $1,727 per quote, compared with the Median state fee in Florida of $1,299—the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample. All 6 quotes exceeded that median, and each showed one unclear combined-fees amount without a full dealer-fee breakdown. Ask for each fee to be listed separately, with an explanation of what it covers, before agreeing.
Four quotes show required extras averaging $624, and one included a required-extra charge above $0. Ask which extras are required and request an itemized written offer showing the vehicle selling price and all charges.
