When we bought the RAM I nearly walked over the doc fees. 30 years ago when
there was a secretary typing it out I didn't like it but understood. Today they
enter the price and the computer spits out all the forms automatically. IIRC it
was $300 and I told the salesman that if the doc fee continued to show up he
could shove the paperwork where the sun doesn't shine.
They said they'd take the doc fee off the price of the truck. I told them it'd
have to be $500 off the price of the truck, he didn't even blink...

That’s the whole deal with Carvana and Carmax, no pressure and upfront
pricing. As far as add ons, not sure about Carvana but I bought a GL at Carmax
several years ago and they still charged doc fees just like any dealer. They
also offered aftermarket warranties for add on costs as well.
I think with carvana they have some sort of deal were if you don’t like it you
can return it within a certain amount of time for a full refund. It’s baciallj
supposed to be just like shopping for a TV or something.
