There are several listed on my web site below. Click on Free Frequent Flyer Miles in the left menu, then on Shopping in the top menu. Scroll down to the Auto buying section

You can call AA directly and ask about what dealers they will refer you to who participate in their mileage program. I think the same is true to UA, and maybe others - so call the airline you are interested in. I think they give 1 mile for every $4 that you spend. I turned down this possiblity when I found a dealer that would accept my credit card as payment. If you are needing to finance a car purchase, then going through this referral program is your best bet. Also I think that they also give miles for an extended warrantly.

I just received an email with my United statement, that Hertz is giving 25,000 with a purchase of a vehicle. They are used vehicles, but may be worth checking out.

Is there a link or a phone number for that offer? I can't find it on the web sites of UAL or Hertz. Thanks.

Just got approved with Eloan via United's MP site. 3,500 miles and a very competative rate of 6% for a used car and a 60 month term.
