Bill,

If you bought from smart center South Charlotte you likely DID PAY this fee. It is listed on the P.O. Contract section following the State Sales Tax line - the line is PREPRINTED Administrative Fee* 399.00.

*This fee is for recovery of administrative overhead expense plus profit.

I can only imagine that it is a higher fee next door at MB!

Tom

Doc fee are getting to be a way of bussiness at the dealers, last three cars I purchased new I paid it. You can jump up and down all you want but basically you are gonna pay it.

This is america, every one can run their bussiness the way they want, and it is all about making money, we are not a socialist country quite yet, give it a few years
