The full story
Why Rick Case Hyundai Duluth earned this grade
Between May 2026 and May 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 1 verified deals with this dealership.

! Where to push back
2 thingsDoc fee is significantly inflated
$1,600 is $778 above the GA average of $822. That's pure margin for the dealer, not cost of service.
TipThis fee is mostly not "standard paperwork" — it's profit. Push back, or get the equivalent off the vehicle price.
The listing isn't quite the price
Quoted prices run about 4.9% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $1,715 in extra fees or markup.
TipGet an OTD quote in writing before you visit. Compare it to the listing — if there's a gap, ask them to account for every line.
