The documentary fee starts at an example figure, the state's legal cap where it has one or $599 where it does not, not any dealership's fee; each dealership sets its own.

A car the selling dealership ships out of its own state usually carries no sales tax in that state; you pay Tennessee tax when you register it in Tennessee. Picking the car up in another state can mean paying that state's tax at the dealership first, and whether Tennessee credits it depends on the two states. Whether a dealership ships to Kingsport is up to the dealership, and it sets its own shipping charge, shown on the car before you sign.
Tennessee sets no cap on it. Each dealership sets its own documentary fee (not a government fee), and each car shows its dealership's fee.
