Does anyone know how the X-plan compares to the USAA car buying service in terms of price? The x-plan seems to have a lot of perks

Documentation fees will very by state.
From my personal experience, no dealer was willing to abandon the $0.65 tire fee, $56.48 fuel charge, $498 advertising assessment, and $795 destination fee that appeared on the invoice, even though only the last charge appears on the sticker. I negotiated a price under invoice, but since invoice includes all these charges, I guess I'm stuck with them. The advertising assessment particularly annoys me, because very few cars have this. Does D or X plan get rid of all these fees?

I've worked at a Ford dealership for 12 years, get D-plan on all of my purchases, and have to pay these fees just like the public when I buy cars for myself.

Even though fuel & advertising charges don't show on the public window sticker, they do appear on the factory invoices as charges to the dealers. They are legitimate charges that the dealers incur and are a part of their cost and rightfully included in the invoice total. You'll find that most vehicles (not just Fords) have destination, fuel, and advertising fees if you look at the true factory invoices.
