Miles for car purchase?
 

Does anyone know if there is a way to get miles (or points somewhere) for buying a new car? Or maybe for taking out an auto loan?

Thanks...

OnePassMan:

There may be other ways, but, next month I am picking up a new truck and paying with my NW Visa. Miles in the bank!

United has a program which offers miles for buying certain cars, but the drawback is that you get the miles instead of other dealer incentives and cashback (I'd rather take the cashback than the miles). The program is called "Odometer miles" and is described on their web site.

AA has auto buying service. I think you get 1 mile for each $4 spent. I got about 4500 AA miles two years ago and not to mention about $30 cash rebate for using GE MC Cashback card. BTW they were on top of dealer incentives and so on... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

I bought my car last summer on two credit cards.... paid it off the next month and got many miles :-)
