I think I heard in an ad that it was a $1000 gas card. Check with your fave Ford dealer to be sure.

GORILLA MARKET SHARE. There is perhaps no greater indication that people are making vehicle purchases with an eye on the gas pump than Ford's decision on May 31 to offer buyers of any of its vehicles zero-percent financing and free gas for the balance of this year. How it works: The auto maker offers customers a prepaid MasterCard debit card that can be used to purchase up to $1,000 of gas, E-85, or diesel -- enough to drive about 6,000 miles, or half the miles the average driver puts on a vehicle per year. Alternatively, a customer could opt for a cash discount.
"It's not complicated, you've only got two choices to make. ... Hopefully, with this program we can go take market share from Toyota and Honda -- the 800-pound gorillas in the room," said Ford spokesman Jim Cain.
Clearly, Ford and GM are frustrated by the growth of Toyota and Honda in the face of their own market-share declines. Paul Ballew, GM's executive director of market and industry analysis, expressed frustration over his company's lack of success in advertising what he feels is GM's fuel-efficiency advantage over Toyota in most of the categories in which the companies compete head-to-head. The Chevy Impala, for example, gets higher fuel economy than the Toyota Camry, and the new Chevy Suburban and Tahoe full-size SUVs get better mileage than Toyota's Sequoia SUV.

If you read the fine print on the commercial, you get a gas car in the amount of $1,100.00. When I saw that, I asked my husband on what planet will you be able to spend 1,100 for a gas per year at these gas prices. It's more like 6 months.

If you buy certain gas-guzzing Ford trucks, they will reimburse you for gas at $1.99 per gallon for one year. Check with a Ford dealer for details.
