The full story

Why Shelbyville Chrysler Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM earned this grade

Between August 2025 and October 2025, CarEdge negotiated or logged 4 verified deals with this dealership. We pulled the doc fee, the add-ons, and the gap between advertised and out-the-door price from each one. Then we graded them the way a friend in the business would: on the things that actually cost you money.

✓ What they do well

1 thing

The price you see is the price you get

Their quoted selling price almost exactly matches the advertised listing price. No mystery markup, no surprise "market adjustment."

! Where to push back

2 things

Doc fee is significantly inflated

$1,035 is $436 above the KY average of $599. 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.

Quoted add-ons show up on many deals

50% of quotes include add-ons that aren't marked optional. Across all recent quotes, add-ons average $498. Expect to see items like paint protection, nitrogen-filled tires, or VIN etching on your quote.

TipAsk which items are genuinely required and which are dealer-added. Anything not required by the manufacturer or the state is worth pushing on.

For Shelbyville Chrysler Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM in Shelbyville, KY, that has meant 4 verified OTD quotes logged into our database. Each one is a PDF, an email, or a screenshot showing the actual doc fee, the actual add-ons, and the actual final price — not a salesperson's promise.
