Florida doc fee law
Florida sets no cap on dealer fees, and it shows: Florida doc fees are among the highest in the nation, with "dealer fee," "electronic filing fee," and "prep" lines that can stack past $1,000. Florida law does require the fee to be disclosed and charged to all customers — so negotiate the out-the-door price, not the fee line.
