You can sign a petition to eliminate these fees by going to “Florida Dealer Fee Petition”. The first site that comes up should take you to the petition page. If we could get enough people to sign the petition, I believe that our legislators will take notice and at least put a cap similar to the one in California.
That’ll never happen. Salespeople hate dealer handling they never see any of that money.
