I bought my 2004 Dodge w/ Cummins from a Lithia dealer here in Oregon.
The dealer sold me a lifetime oil change card for $425.00
It allows me to get the oil changed every 3 months or 3,000 miles FOREVER FREE !!!!!!!!
Best money I ever spent.

That would be great A 2008 FORD F-250 with a tricked-out CUMMINS 12V ?????

When I bought my 08 F450, my dealer gave me my first oil change free! Some dealers are just douche bags

The dealer I bought my Dodge from sends me oil change coupons for $63.95, plus a nominal disposal fee. I change my own, but that's still a LONG way from $180. I don't blame you for telling them to kiss your a$$.

I had the dealer do my first 2 changes and they were right at $75 each. $180? Criminals.

i just got a b-day card from the dealer I got my ford from for a 500 rebate on a new car or a free oil change on any vehicle I wonder if they will stand behind it when i roll the F350 in to get them to change it

I show them the coupon they gave me, with my name, type of truck & the vin number of the truck receiving the oil-change !!! FORD said no-go cause I have a diesel, I told the idiots, they sold me the truck & knew it was a diesel, FORD said It was a mistake on their part, but if I want an oil change it's $180, OK kiss my a$$ & to shove the MUSTANGE SHELBY they are trying to sell to my wife, UP THEIR @#@%#@ I should have bought a DODGE ????
Shoulda went to to Bartow Ford.....I know a few of the salesmen and one of the Service managers.....they install head studs and warranty them on the 6.0's if you pay for the head studs......they do all kinds of good stuff for their customers, i know i will be dealing with them if i ever buy a new ford.....

sounds like a money saver for them.... 500 off a new car that already has no markup on it because of the failing auto industry or a free oil change that may cost less than 100 bux.....
