The full story

Why Scott Honda Of Vineland earned this grade

Between September 2025 and December 2025, CarEdge negotiated or logged 7 verified deals with this dealership.

Then we graded them the way a friend in the business would: on the things that actually cost you money.

! Where to push back

3 things

Doc fee is slightly padded

$847 is $121 above the NJ average of $726. Not outrageous, but worth questioning.

TipAsk them to match the average. If they won't, factor it into your overall price — every dollar here is negotiable.

Add-ons are baked into almost every deal

71% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $1,295. 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.

The listing isn't quite the price

Quoted prices run about 5.8% above the advertised listing. On a $35,000 vehicle that's roughly $2,030 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.

What they do well:Nothing stands out as a strength in this data. That's the finding.
