The full story

Why Plantation Ford earned this grade

Plantation Ford received an A. CarEdge reviewed five quotes from December 2025 through October 2026. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and whether charges were clearly shown.

What they do well

  • ✓ Dealer fees were itemized. All five quotes showed fully itemized dealer fees.
  • ✓ Some written prices were at or below the ad. Of the two quotes checked against advertised prices, one was within $1 and the other was $2,000 below.

Where to push back

Average confirmed dealer fees were $1,413 across the five quotes, and all five exceeded the $1,299 Median state fee in Florida. That reference is the middle fee amount in the Florida state-fee sample. Ask the dealer to walk you through each fee and confirm the total in writing before agreeing.
