Another gift from Acura

Just received a box from Acura with 2 stainless steel insulated travel mugs with Acura logos (with and without a handle). They fit nicely in cup holders.
Last Xmas time I also received 2 glass tumblers. Waiting for the plates and silverware...

Anyone else get these?

They sent me a SS coffee mug around X-mas time. I've owned my car just over a year now.

Hah yeah I just got a birthday card from the salesman but I've never gotten any cool presents

Maybe because I bought CPO and not a brand new car? haha

I'm thinking it's dealer specific and not Acura sending these out? Maybe i'm wrong.

Santa Monica Acura sends out a small gourmet snack/coffee basket along with a ceramic "Acura" logo coffee mug.
I'd prefer getting two SS mugs instead, but I'll live.

Dannnng ... I feel left out .... after getting 4 acuras over the years, I got squad from Acura ... only bills & service remainders ... maybe my dealer hates me 'cuz I bargained with them too much ... LOL

Note that the bay area ppl didn't get any gifts from the local dealers .... sigh ...

Two Acuras bought from the same salesman, nothing more than cards like you.

Nothing here either. Did get a postcard from my Acura salesman informing me that he left the dealership and is now working at a Honda dealership.

Wow, this is awesome... SS coffee cups. Man, my brother and I both bought TLs from separate dealers and neither of us got shit. I got 2 Acura key chains, and he didn't get anything except a Mueller's Acura license plate frame =P

I just saw a new item at my Acura dealership yesterday. I picked up a stainless steel Type S travel mug. I'll shoot a pic of it and post for you.

This wasn't free from Acura, but still a nice pick-up.

And if fits perfectly into the cup holder...

Buddy, I think it was $18.00. It is a nice travel piece.

It's like that old joke...3 guys were trying to determine what the greatest invention of all times was. One said the computer, one said the X-Ray machine, but the third guy said, "it's definitely a thermos. It keeps hot things hot-it keeps cold things cold...how do it know? How do it know?"
