Average confirmed dealer fees in the quote were $159, below Maine’s Median state fee of $599—the middle fee amount in the eligible quote sample. However, dealer fees were not fully itemized, and a combined-fees amount was unclear. Ask what that amount includes and request an itemized written quote with government charges shown separately before agreeing.
