I have an order in for a 2015. Will pick up out of state at Dave Smith motors in Idaho. Asked about extra charges. Dealer says a $50 doc fee and a $150 detailing charge. Says detailing includes a "hand buffed silicone sealant".

- Other than the sealant, seems that a new car ought to already be squeaky clean without having to pay extra.

- Why would a "hand buffed silicone sealant be any better than a coat of McQuire's in my driveway?

(On the other hand, I'll be leaving the dealership and heading out on a month long road trip, so it might be nice to have some protection on there.)

Thoughts?

So you have no say in the detailing charge? If you do, tell them not to touch it.

Just another way to pad the gross profit, decline everything and do your own simple detail. Pm me if you want Some docs on it....
