The full story
Why Courtesy Ford earned this grade
Between October 2025 and June 2026, CarEdge negotiated or logged 6 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
2 thingsDoc fee is genuinely reasonable
$189 is $232 below the LA average of $421. That's money you keep — most dealers in their market charge more.
Advertised pricing is largely honest
On average, the quoted price is only 1.9% above the listing — small enough to be fees, not markup games.
! Where to push back
1 thingAdd-ons are baked into almost every deal
67% of quotes include dealer add-ons, averaging $920. This is their business model — inflate the OTD, then hope you don't line-item it.
TipDemand an itemized quote before signing anything. Every add-on is optional — refuse them unless you actually want them.
