OK, we are now listed as a 4-wheel parts "preferred club", which basically means, we can get discounts on goodies there too.
Here's how it works... members of the club can get special cards, from 4-wheel parts, that allow them to get a 5% discount on goods and services (parts and install) at any of the 4-wheel parts locations nationwide.
Then, annually 4-wheel parts figures out how much RMFTC members spent at the store, and cut a check for 2% of that amount, to RMFTC which would help me to continue to cover site costs, etc. and any "extra" could be given to our official charity (this is one of the reasons I wanted to get the charity thing going). So, say your going to drop $1000, you'll save $50, and 4-wheel parts will send $20 to the site at the end of the year. not too shabby of a deal eh?
They have also offered up their store area after-hours for club meets, etc. if we decide to have them there and even offered to do some goodies, door-prizes etc. if we decide to do so.
I am still working on how to get the cards taken care of, I can either submit a list of our members that want one, or when people go in they can request one and one will be mailed to them. Hopefully I"ll have more details on that soon.
This is certainly not tot ake away from the 10% discount we receive at Off-Road innovations. In fact I'll be taking my truck into ORI soon to get the gears done, etc. but its good ot have multiple choices of companies offering us goodies, and the 4-wheel parts deal actually helps out the club as well.
