Make California Post a Preferred Source Generous car dealerships in Southern California are showering local military heroes with free tanks of gas for Veterans Day.
Honda dealers across Los Angeles County gave up to $70 in gasoline to active and retired military members as part of a two-day “Helpful Honda” campaign.
The giveaway was part of an effort to provide more than $15,000 worth of fuel across the region.
“Respect to Honda for respecting veterans,” veteran Michael Elrod, 78, told the California Post while getting a free tank in Los Angeles Wednesday.
“We should never forget those who served their country,” added veteran Luis Saucedo, 32.
The giveaway is part of the company’s long-running campaign to pump out free fuel in participating locations in the area.
“Helpful Honda” was launched in 2007 as part of an outreach effort to build public trust.
