Dealer Freebies?

What, if any dealer freebies did you get when you purchased? Free floor mats? Gas?

I don't know if I'd consider gas a freebie. Don't all dealers do that?

Full Tank of Gas will be the only thing I foresee getting from my dealership .
Yeah I thought all dealerships give you your first full tank for free??

I have a little problem with this!! I mean I'm dropping 28K on a car at MSRP and they cant throw in a stinkin set of rubber floor mats??? C'mon!!

Had stripes thrown in and a free roof graphic (would have to pay install), but their vinyl guy, they tell me, isn't working with them anymore. So, still working out what will be done to replace that "value"-- but I did talk them into matching Morristown's 20% off on accessories-- not a big deal, but means I can toss some other stuff (roof rack, etc) into my financing without feeling TOO bad about it.

I expect a full tank of gas. Every car we've bought had at least that!

The Pear Tree -- a bit excessive. Did you strap it to the roof?

Yeah, but one of the limbs flapped around in the wind and beat the partridge to death on the way home. Oh well, turns out they make good soup... taste just like chicken.

I was given an option of rubber or carpet floor mats and I picked carpet floor mats including the trunk mat. And till now I thought gas was given at any dealership, isn't it? And they waived off the dealer 's processing fee (200$).

Free floor mats, "soccer man" chair, antibacterial hand wipes (that fit into a cup holder), key chains, inserts for the cup holders (that absorb any perspiration), deck of cards...and a tank of gas.

And they gave me a deal on the price.....

Apparently I have a very generous dealer!

I have most of the trinkets mentioned in this thread. What I'd really like is a very good rate for 24 months, and/or a great trade in for my '03 MCS, or a below MSRP price.
