I was at my dealer a few days ago and they gave me a brand new ES350 as a loaner and had the ***** to ask me to return it with a full tank since the tank was full when i picked it up. I couldn't believe my ears, i filled it up alright, at the crappiest service station i could find with nothing but their finest regular 87 octane.

You must go to Lexus of New Oreleans because Lexus of Mobile requests for you to put gas back in it, just a 1/4 tank. However I have skimped a few times but never been busted!

Park Place of Plano doesn't ask that you refuel the loaner (at least they haven't asked me to yet).

at stevinson lexus in colorado. they charge a $7.50 fee for the loaner, for the length of the loan. 1 day or a year. they say that this is to offset the gas cost, because people used to bring back the loaners bone dry.
so don't think that you are entitled to the loaner or the gas in it. you're not.
you bought a car and not you're servicing it and paying for the service.
no one owes you anything else.

It varies from dealer to dealer.
My dealer has me sign a gas form which says I will bring loaner back with same amount of gas, but I'm always running late and forget to stop at gas station. I have never been charged.
