Being quoted the following fees tacked onto a potential new Tahoe purchase near Houston, Tx...are these appropriate or relatively fair? I've done some research on the Internet can can't even find some of these, like deputy fee, but wonder if it is a breakdown of something else. Thanks in advance--inexperienced buyer here...

Documentation fee: $150
State inspection: $16.75
Deputy fee: $10
Title fee: $33
Tag/Registration Fee: $112.25
Road and Bridge: $23
Other: $7

    Those all look typical for Texas.
    Nothing out of line.
