What Freebies did you get from dealer?
Not sure if someone has started this already or not but I think it would be good for prospective buyers to get an idea what kind of freebies people have finagled out of their dealers when closing a deal on their new truck.
Personally I got lifetime oil changes with synthetic blend, lifetime power train Warranty from dealer, free towing within 50 miles for life, got a free under coating sprayed on before all said and done. The finance guy somehow screwed up the bottom line on the deal and it wasn't caught until I had already left so there was 3000 off of an already very low bottom line price. Worked a deal with the manager and agreed to pay them that money but got my lift installed for free and warrantied by them, my spray in liner and bakflip tonneau all covered by the dealer. All in all I'm happy with way it all turned out!
Edit. Forgot about free state inspection and lifetime alignments. The inspections were automatic but the lifetime assignments was because they screwed up.

I got a tin of cookies. Dealer even backed out of some free oil changes he promised during the negotiation phase. This will probably be noted in the Ford survey if I ever get it.

I got nothing at all for free, other than the enjoyment of not having to haggle over anything whatsoever. I just told them the price I wanted, he agreed, I went and picked up the truck in 4 weeks. So that to me was worth it.

Tint and tonneau, but really no such thing as a freebie. Unless you have negotiated the price and are just about to sign the contract and then go oh I need you to throw this this and this in and the price doesn't change.
If you are negotiating and say I want you to throw "this" in and the sales rep says sure...it's just coming off the price you could have negotiated lower.
Just my 2 cents....although I would have appreciated some cookies!!
