Would make sense if, for instance, they know your car is about done w warranty you've spent $X typically on cars and like SUVs.
My dealer usually has them all lined up and lets me pick which one I want. If it mattered to me, I could make an earlier appointment to get a better car.
Mine too. Just schedule-wise I'm always there early so I can take what I want. My dealer is also a tricky fellow, whenever I mention I'm thinking of something new to him that's magically my loaner. GF has a GT right now bc I mentioned to him in passing that it may be a good next car for her.
