Default Bombarded by research questionaires

Hey guys, after purchasing my IS350, I was suddenly bombarded by research questionaires and was just wondering if any of you guys received the same? So far, I've received one from JD Power, Maritz Research and Population Research Systems. Funny thing was that JD sent me a $1 bill along w/the questionaire as a "thank you" gift.

I'm also wondering if there's any benefit in filling out these questionaires? In the past, I've participated in numerous paid research and got paid nicely for my time. I'm wondering if filling out these questionaires will result in them calling me to do the paid researches?

Sounds like your dealership sold you out... I moved shortly after purchasing my car, so I might have gotten them if not - or maybe somebody else is filling out my surveys!

JD Power definately.... espically for IQS studies..... i don't know about the other research companies.

i think my management actually reviews them all... and we actually have to solve these problems customers report

After we got our Lexus we got questionnaires from JD Power, Maritz, and I think another group (or was it yet another, second JD Power survey?) Or the Lexus survey?

And we got the crisp $1 bill too.
