Cool lmfao "12" oil changes with 3 yrs. For $235

this is a funny story I had just bought my crossfire at the beginning of Feb. Dealer calls me in to sign some papers and hand me my plates, then so girl offers me 12 oil changes on my car for $235 + tax for 3 yrs. So i was sure ill take that offer i had already ask that it cost like over $140 for just one change. So i sign the paper and pay then i ask the service guy to change it the "***" says its like $150 for that oil change im like change it. Lmfao i give him my card for the oil change "his like this car is excluded" well I just paid $235 for 12 so the owner of the dealership said that his gona honor the deal and I watch that guy put 8.5 qt. Moblie one europen oil. I got them good.

A deal is a deal, but I would walk carefully through that minefield...

My dealer has "Lifetime free oil changes" painted on the outside of his service bays. When I bought the car they gave me a card that says the same thing. I was the last (and probably first) Crossfire that got the card. Didn't take them long to figure it out. The dealership has changed hands and the new guys still honor the card. I'm sure that they hope to make it up in other service, but free oil for a Crossfire is a ton of other service.

The service guys can't believe that I have a card when I bring the car in. I always have to show the card and it always draws a crowd of service guys who laugh and snicker about it. They know some sales boof screwed up big time. But a deal is a deal.

great if you are a high mileage driver. otherwise, you will only need 3-5 oil changes over the entire 3 year period so $235 is about the same cost for materials if doing it yourself.

That is a good deal! I must say though that the defamatory slur you used to describe the service guy I found offensive.

I did not understand it either. Why would anyone call a guy a cigarette?

He's a militant anti-smoker. Cigarette is the worst thing he could think of to call someone. Like... 'You effing..... CIGARETTE!"

Ok, i just saw the qt. of oil it cost $6.49 ea. and it takes 8.5qt. To fill the awesome xfire so thats like $56 no filter so im guessing another $15 for it thats $71-75 total x 5 = $425+ so i think im gona use my awesome xfire more than 5 oil changes in 3 yrs. But thx for the info
