That's what I figured but just seems like an odd thing to send to people randomly.

Ah! I gotcha, Kinda confused as to why they would randomly send that. Then again, when I bought my X5 the dealer send us a Box of "premium" cookies.

I'd much prefer 'premium' cookies.

this spare battery thing only serves my teenaged niece who is constantly online.

I'm old enough to have plenty of spare battery packs, etc. The cookies on the other hand sound yummy to me.

I got one the other day as well. I love free things so I was excited for it and think it'll come in handy from time to time. I got my '17 RDX last May, so not sure if only certain people got them or not.

Ha^ I was looking at the Honda yesterday...Ill for sure get another Honda for a runner, the base model is loaded!
What really got me was the free A1 service voucher...that's good value!

I was curious to see if any Acura battery packs appeared online...did see a unit once sold thru Walmart for 15bucks.

Just got one today as well. It's a nice free item, better than the keychains they typically send.

Second Wave?

I just received the complimentary power bank today so maybe there's a second wave of shipments going out.
It was accompanied by a card saying "This is our way of saying thanks for driving an Acura." Nice! This is my first Acura and I must say no other car company has ever done anything like this for me after the sale.

Cheers!

^^^^^^ What good fortune!

But now the stakes have risen...
Honda Civic owners are claiming to have received free a toy Civic...
metal cast, battery led head lights and pull back motor. There is also a blue Sedan.

Someone sold an Acura power bank on eBay a few days ago, just hours before I could swipe it.

My parents received one for their 17 RDX, but it has sat on the counter for over a week, so I may have to steal it and use it to go along with my CL-S.
