You guys realize that you paid for the tank of gas, right? It is part of the price.

I think it's more accurate to say it's built into the overhead of operating the dealership. And, I am fairly certain every dealership does it. Right now, at most, we're talking ~30 per vehicle (a little more for larger SUVs and Trucks). Not insignificant, but also not a deal killer for most people.

You could argue I paid for that "free tint" too, and any of the other niceties like keychains that others got. Some of the items (like gas and keychains) are built into the general operating costs and overhead; Some things like the tint may just be eaten by the dealership for those that complain, or we just didn't get as much of MSRP as we may have otherwise.

Dealerships, as you rightfully point out, aren't going to lose money - it's all in the accounting of where it is paid for: either a direct customer cost, or built into the minimum GPM a dealership is willing to take on average and line item as an expense of operating.

I asked for nothing.........since I didn't have some ridiculous "processing fee" and paid $1500 BELOW their invoice.

well done :clap2:

All I asked, which is what I got, was to be notified when the 1st Mustang arrived at the dealership so I could look at it first and either decide to buy or order on the spot. Received call on 14OCT2014, drove her home, and been happy ever since.

the hell of a deal I got and saving $5k over local dealer was enough. I had 8 and half hr drive back home after 8 and half hr drive up. i was ready to go.

$750 off MSRP only because it wasn't applied to my wife's Explorer when we bought it and a payment... There wasn't any rebates on the car at the time and being a 50th they weren't coming off the price anymore. We always seem to buy vehicles with no rebates. You can't get a rebate on an SVT either.

A firm handshake, a warning about Ohio police, and a dirty car..

A quick transaction.

Walked in, asked to see the black pp that just got shipped in. After they quickly rinsed the dirt off I said ok cool I'll be using z plan, let's go get this over with so I can get to the beach. Gave PIN number, started signing crap, said NO to about a dozen bs add ons, shook hands and hit the road.

In the end even after a "quick" 2hr transaction I was too much of a nervous wreck to drive to the beach.

Went home and just looked at it.

Been back for the first free oil change. That's probably the last they will see of me unless I have recalls or buy the wife an SUV.

It seems most the people here completely missed OP's question and went straight to bragging about how good of a deal they got...

With my car, I got lifetime oil changes which is nice but I'll probably not use them since it's a few hours away.

Six hours of his time, a massive headache and nearly 4k under MSRP.
