Dealer Spike launches Price Box to put one all-in price on every unit, at no added cost

Price Box itemizes freight, setup, and fees beneath a single price on dealer websites as all-in pricing spreads from auto to the recreational and equipment markets.

LAKE OSWEGO, Ore., Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Dealer Spike today launched Price Box, a website feature that shows shoppers one all-in price on every unit, with freight, setup, and fees itemized underneath. Price Box is available now and included with Dealer Spike websites at no added cost.

All-in pricing is already moving through vehicle retail. In March, the Federal Trade Commission sent warning letters to 97 auto dealership groups, saying advertised prices must reflect the total price consumers will pay. Dealers in powersports, marine, trailer, agriculture, heavy truck, heavy equipment and outdoor power equipment are watching the same change reach their markets.

For many of those dealers, the obstacle is practical. OEM MSRPs typically leave out freight and setup, so dealers reconcile fees unit by unit. According to The State of the Dealer: 2026, 54.06% of dealer web traffic happens outside business hours, so shoppers often see that price without anyone there to explain it. Top-turning dealers show pricing on 83.30% of their units, suggesting that showing the price drives faster sales.

Price Box gives each dealer one configurable way to show the full number. Shoppers see a prominent all-in price on listing and detail pages, with base price, freight, setup, documentation fees, and dealer discounts itemized beneath it. Dealers control their fees, labels, and display. Price Box works with any DMS, mapping fees from native fields, such as those in Lightspeed DMS, or from custom fields a dealer has set up. Dealers without a DMS can set store-level defaults or enter fees per unit.

“The price is the price. Shoppers want to see it, and dealers want to show it,” said Nasi Jazayeri, CEO of Dealer Spike. “Dealers didn’t create the gap between MSRP and what a buyer pays, but they’re the ones explaining it. Price Box does that math on the website, based on how each store already prices, at no added cost. Our dealers asked for this, and they helped build it.”

Dealers ran Price Box on live websites ahead of launch, and their feedback shaped the version available today. Dealer Spike will keep adding to it with dealer input.

“When dealers show the whole price, customers get a cleaner, more honest buying experience, and they don’t feel blindsided when they walk in the door,” said Mark Sheffield, Dealer Spike Advisor, Woods Cycle Country. “Dealers stop defending a broken pricing structure and get back to selling. Tools like Price Box make it easier to show the full price on the website, where shoppers start. Trust goes up, and the conflict goes down.”

Key capabilities of Price Box include:

A prominent all-in price on vehicle listing and detail pages, with an itemized breakdown of fees and discountsFee categories, labels, and display that can be set by store or by unitWorks with any DMS, mapping fees from native or custom fields, plus a no-DMS option using store defaults or per-unit entryOptional MSRP or dealer retail reference pricing with savings displayOn/off control with a live preview before changes go publicIncluded with Dealer Spike websites at no additional cost

Price Box is designed to support pricing transparency and OEM advertising requirements. Dealers remain responsible for their own compliance decisions.

America’s Largest Political Group Is Getting Its Own Election Night

By

A record 45% of Americans identify with neither party. On November 3, they get the first nationally televised Election Night built around the independent voter bloc, presented by United Independents, the organization behind the Independent National Convention, in partnership with DeFiance Media.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Can the country’s largest bloc of voters turn identity into representation? Independents now make up 45% of U.S. adults, a record high in Gallup’s 2025 data, yet partisan coverage continues to dominate mainstream mediums. On November 3, one broadcast will cover the election from the Independent point of view.

Broadcast live from the National Press Club’s television studio in Washington, D.C. Election Night 2026: Independent Edition is an eight-hour program hosted by Christopher Life, founder and CEO of United Independents, and Macy Gunnell, NewsForce’s White House correspondent. DeFiance Media will be producing and streaming the broadcast.

Built on live election data from The Associated Press (AP), the program will call the national races as the returns come in. Then it goes where other broadcasts don’t: race-by-race coverage of independent candidates in consequential congressional contests, and guest conversations with the strategists and organizers behind them.

Built for the Voters Both Parties Are Chasing

Two generations of Americans have come of age as independent voters, and in 74 years of nationally televised Election Night broadcasts, not one has been built around them. This one is: national results and the balance of power, dedicated coverage of the independent candidates who could tip the next Congress, and a live chat with selected viewer questions put to the hosts and guests on air.

Open to Every Newsroom

Television pool feed. U.S. television outlets, including local stations, can carry the program live, in full or in part, separate from DeFiance Media’s full-program streaming.Social streaming. The broadcast streams through participating social media partners. Channels that want to carry it can sign up at Election2026.live.Live clips and excerpts. Newsrooms, commentators, and creators can pull portions of the program for reporting and social distribution while the broadcast is underway.
