so, a while back I referred a friend and fellow forum member to my dealership and salesperson to buy a Rubi. He did, and so my sales person sent me a $75 gift card to the dealership as a thank you.
This is pretty cool and I do appreciate it, but I’m having trouble figuring out what to do with it.
-I do most of my own work (pretty much up to the heavy stuff like axle swaps, engine swaps, transmission and t-case rebuilds, or heavy structural fabrication/ welding are where I tap out. I would love to learn but just don’t have the experience yet) and I don’t even know if I can use it on that.
-the only thing I hate more than other people working on my rig is waiting for the dealership to get done working on my rig, for a list of reasons too long to get into, plus, the dealer is ~20 mi from where I live but it takes an hour to get there due to traffic
-I don’t buy doodads and stick on parts like bug shields, grille covers, etc. I usually focus on buying parts that will improve the function of my Jeep and make it more capable off road or adds a useful feature on road trips, and those come from either all the usual Jeep parts warehouse sites, or a company I know, trust, identify with their core values, and/ or appreciate the design and construction of their products.
So, TL;DR:
What would you guys spend a $75 gift card to your dealership on if you do your own work, hate waiting for other people to get work done, and most of the aftermarket parts aren’t really something you’d buy? Thoughts?
