A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
What is a dealer advertising fee?
A dealer advertising fee is a charge some dealers add to cover their contribution to regional advertising cooperatives run by the manufacturer. The actual cost to the dealer is typically $100 to $400 per vehicle, but some dealers inflate it to $500 to $800. This fee is negotiable. If a dealer will not reduce it, ask for an equivalent discount on the vehicle price.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND giving Vantage Auto Group a shot — you won’t be disappointed!!Words like “trustworthy” and “transparent” don’t usually come to mind when people think of car brokers or car salesmen… but Vantage Auto is changing that. They’re redefining the standard and restoring trust in this industry by proving that good, honest people still exist in the car business.They’re easy to deal with, efficient, communicative, and just all-around FAIR and GREAT to work with!

Another five star experience!!! This is the 3rd car I’ve purchased through David and the crew at Vantage. No hassle, no bait and switch, no high pressure sales tactics or incessant follow up phone calls like with a traditional dealership. A few phone conversations with David, and he finds the car you want, with the trim package you want, at the best possible price. Delivery is convenient and the crew are always the constant professionals, taking the time to go over vehicle features and getting you setup to go…. Cant say enough.
