    There are specific people In my dealer that are the same. One makes as much off of referrals of other dealers, as he does selling at ours.

    Who cares about a $90 tank of gas when you're spending $40k right? :)

    Full tank. In the past I've bought vehicles without, but that was a different world.

    When I bought my truck new, I bought it as a house deal (Cost +3%) and still got a full tank of gas. No wash required as it had been put on the showroom floor hours earlier after a hand wash.

    I bought mine used and it came with a full tank. I didnt even ask for it. The day I picked it up, the dealership called and said it was detailed, filled up and ready for me.

    The lot boy filled the truck, washed, dryed and pulled it into the show room while we signed paperwork. Then they took photos of me and my truck and then near the end of the year (2011), got a cool Toyota Calender with pic they took on the month I bought it.

    When you buy a vehicle, it SHOULD come off the lot with a full tank (or extremely damn close). The dealership picked my truck up over 200 miles away in Ohio, drove it back, and then filled it up for me. And I got a $50 gas card from them.
