Default More free stuff from Toyota?

So I was pleased to find the postcard about the 3 free oil changes in the glove box. Then a few weeks later happy about the $50 gift card from Scion Solutions.

And now today something new from Toyota Financial (Encore-rewards) in the mail. I get to choose a free gift ? Ok, so the JVC DVD player, Krups coffee maker, Kenneth Cole watch or 3 piece luggage set?

Ok, so it's not an XBOX 360, but still nice to get free stuff.

3 Free oil changes is scion everywhere. $50 car is if you finance with scion financial...

Haven't gotten anything about the encore rewards, but then again, I didn't go through scion financial on my loan.

Wow, none of those gifts are useful should I get one of those offers. Maybe I can obtain it and e-bay it :D

got the car 11/05. I previously had a matrix and financed with TFS. This is their thank you for another finance with them.

Agree with tucker. Most of the gifts are not useful, but maybe I'll just regift the DVD player.

The Kenneth Cole watches are pretty nice. they are an option from my company store as a reward for surviving... err, I mean working, for 5 years.

Does this one have the Scion logo on the band like our company one does?

I'll probably go for the DVD player. Gonna need another one in the new house.

As for the $50 card... I lost mine, conveniently finding it, about 3 weeks after it expired. GRRR!

This is the Kenneth Cole watch - called "Some Time Together". No Scion logo that I can see. which is good. I think that would be lame.

I pay online. I'd better start opening those monthly bills instead of throwing them in the trash!

i got something from tfs, too, but i had to choose between some rolling dufflebag, one of those portable handheld vacuums, a sony radio alarm clock, and i think a cd wallet. i never redeemed mine. for some reason whenever i try to register on the toyotal financial site, i get a stupid error o_O... or maybe it`s because of my stupid computer.

everyone that owns a scion gets first 3 oil changes free


i have a maintenance program called Hendricks Auto Maintenance that covers me for all scheduled services like every 5k oil changes, major scheduled services...tire rotations.. etc.

this package program was thrown in as a courtesy due to the problems i had with the dealership before buying my tc. This maintenance program was free to me because of my situation but is usually about $600 normally. I dont know if this is offered in other parts of the country but I know at least the Southeast or Midsouth region has this program.

They aren't really covered by "warranty" ... it's a thing that all Scion's have. Like someone else mentioned - any new Scion comes with 3 free Oil Changes.

I didn't even need my three though - I purhcased the paid scheduled maintenance when I got my tC, for 3yrs/30k. So I don't even have to worry about that until I pass 30k anyways.
