01FOCI Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Actually due to the quantity they will be buying or have bought and the ability to buy tomorrows at todays prices the only bad thing that could happen is if future prices tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moby Vic Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Chrysler's offer is good for gasoline with up to 87 octane regular unleaded fuel, E85 fuel or diesel fuel only. You can get gasoline with less than 87 octane? What can you use it in, an L-head Plymouth six? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salsakingcpa Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 (edited) vehicles not included:those with crappy mileage Don't be an imbecile; this program was designed for autos/trucks with low mileage. Chrysler offers buyers $2.99 per gallon gasoline By CRAIG TRUDELL, AUTOMOTIVE NEWS In a bid to boost sales of its fuel thirsty trucks and SUVs, Chrysler LLC rolled out a new type of incentive late Monday, May 5: Chrysler will cap the price of gasoline at $2.99 per gallon for three years on most of its models. The program is available to buyers starting Wednesday, May 7. It is scheduled to expire June 2. Details of the program, such as which models would be eligible and how much gasoline could be purchased--were sketchy. Customers enrolled in the program will pay the pump price the day they refuel. Chrysler and its partner on the project, Dallas-based Pricelock, will then split the invoice. Chrysler will be charged the difference above $2.99 per gallon. "Today we are proud to introduce an unprecedented program to help put customers’ minds at ease and do something to help working people who are worried about the volatility of fuel prices and vehicle cost of ownership,” Chrysler Vice Chairman Jim Press said late Monday. But the program has a number of limits. Chrysler said in a statement the program covers only new vehicles, and three fuels: 87 octane gasoline, E-85 and diesel--which excludes any of the automaker's vehicles that require premium fuel, such as its SRT models.. Buyers can choose the fuel deal or another incentive, but not both. Consumers who opt for the gasoline deal receive a special credit card about six weeks after taking delivery of their new vehicle. The card can only be used at certain filling stations, which Chrysler did not identify. No matter what the price is on the pump, the consumer is charged only $2.99 per gallon. There is a limit to how much fuel a consumer can buy at $2.99 per gallon, but Chrysler did not say how much. The sales incentive will only cover the first 12,000 miles driven per year based on the estimated mileage for the Chrysler car or truck purchased, executives with the privately held automaker said. The offer is being introduced at a time when high gasoline prices have hammered sales of the SUVs and trucks that dominate Chrysler's lineup. "This could be a game-changer in terms of how vehicles are sold in the marketplace," said Steve Landry, Chrysler's head of North American sales. Chrysler officials said late Monday that it will begin training its dealers about the program this week.

suv_guy_19 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 You can get gasoline with less than 87 octane? What can you use it in, an L-head Plymouth six? In parts of the midwest states, the pumps will sometimes say minimum 85.5 for regular. I was a little nervous to fill up with that so I stepped up to midgrade...which was regular.

Moby Vic Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Yeah, I don't know of any manufacturer that recommends anything below 87. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickF1011 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Yeah, I don't know of any manufacturer that recommends anything below 87. Sunoco used to sell 86 octane "Economy" grade here in MD. They used to also sell 99 octane at some stations. I think they have gotten rid of both of em though. Now all you see is 87, 89, and 93.
