The full story
Why Ulrich Ford Lincoln earned this grade
Ulrich Ford Lincoln: In September 2026, CarEdge reviewed 2 verified quotes. This small sample considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices, and how clearly charges were shown.
What they do well
No clear positive pricing or fee-disclosure pattern stands out in these two quotes.
Where to push back
Average confirmed dealer fees were $375 across the 2 quotes. The Median state fee in Iowa was $180, the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample. Both quotes were above that figure, so ask the dealer to explain each fee before agreeing.
Both quotes also showed a single unclear combined-fees amount rather than fully itemized dealer fees. That alone does not establish overcharging, but it makes it harder to see what the charge covers. Ask for an itemized written offer separating dealer fees from taxes and government charges, and have the dealer identify each fee and its amount.
