The full story

Why Sewell Cadillac of Grapevine earned this grade

Between September 2025 and September 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 10 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.

✓ What they do well

3 things

Doc fee is in line with the market

At $225, their doc fee sits at or just under the TX average. Not exceptional, but nothing to fight over.

Quoted add-ons are the exception

Only 10% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $149. Most shoppers here never see one.

Advertised pricing is largely honest

On average, the quoted price is only 0.4% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.

! Where to push back:Nothing glaring. That's part of why they scored where they did.
