The scam at the Toyota dealer's is to 'suggest' that every auto be

about $25 worth of 'extra dealer items', such as 'friction proofer' and
other additives that are routinely added, unless they're told up front
not
to do it.

I'm very careful to tell them I want the 'book' service when I go in.

I give up. What the hell is friction proofer?

It goes by many names: Pixie Dust, Snake Oil ; fairy dust; Mystery
Oil, Slick 50 etc.

It is a very effective way to quickly and easily, with very little
friction to lube money from your wallet into their wallet.
