    I doubt anyone is gonna buy JUST for gas. Its an incentive, a damn good idea too.

    Somewhat off topic...theres a jewelry store here in Tulsa that has a road side sign that says "Take your wife somewhere expensive tonight. Go to a gas station."

    Its a good marketing idea, and it will probably help them last a few more years...

    The car I like of theirs right now is the Lancer Ralliart and the Lancer Evolution, the rest of their lineup is pretty blah...

    I never said it wasnt, just said it was one of their only cars I like :) And they don't sell enough EVO's to make a difference (but it does bring the brand up a few rungs on the ladder, although they are still quite low, which helps them sell Lancers for sure)

    1500 for gas.....That would last me about 3 months....when gas prices soar to 4 bucks, that would last me about 2 months, lol

    And if ya think about it, its not really all that great of a deal....youd much rather have that 1500-2500 taken off the loan amount...so in essence, you leave happy that you have a gas card, but ya dont realize that they are watching you leave with a smile on their faces cuz they just duped ya out of more money than ya thought
