Score breakdown
Evidence
$999 dealer documentation fee built into the displayed price — the vehicle-page stack arithmetic closes only with the fee inside ($45,870 − $3,500 + $999 = $43,369) and the page's disclaimer names the $999 fee; the same disclaimer also states prices 'exclude' the fee, contradicting the stack. Checked October 18, 2026.
Checked October 18, 2026Grades are scored from the dealer's own published pricing.What this dealer does well
- Builds its $999 fee into the displayed price rather than adding it afterward.
What would change this grade
- Correcting the contradicting disclaimer would restore consistency; at $999 the fee level (2/30) caps the grade regardless.
