Default Rolling Door Prizes: Chrysler Celebrates New Ownership By Giving Away Vehicles


Under new management: Chrysler dealers will give away free vehicles on August 15 to celebrate the company's new ownership. Among them will be the 2007 Chrysler Crossfire.


The Dodge Durango will be another in the long list of vehicles to be given away by Chrysler dealers on August 15.


A total of 15 vehicles from the 2007-'08 model years will become door prizes nationwide, including the Dodge Charger (pictured), but not the Viper.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — As part of the festivities to celebrate its new ownership, Chrysler said on Wednesday it will be giving away vehicles — excluding plums like the Dodge Viper — at participating Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep dealers in the U.S. on August 15.

The automaker said 15 different vehicles will be given away from the 2007-'08 model years, including the Chrysler Aspen, Crossfire, 300C and Pacifica; Dodge Caliber, Charger, Dakota Crew Cab, Durango, Magnum, Nitro and Ram Mega Cab; and Jeep Commander, Compass, Grand Cherokee and Liberty.

Calling it "the ultimate door prize," the automaker said it will give away 15 vehicles in total. Entrants must be licensed drivers over 18 and residents of the U.S.

Participating dealers can be found at the Chrysler LLC Web site.

What this means to you: Your chance at a free Chrysler as the company celebrates being an American brand once again.

That's a pretty cool idea. Let's just hope that the people that win the cars realize that they have to pay the tax all at once on April 15. Something like the Aspen could be as much as $17k in tax in one shot. Hopefully, if they'll just take the cars and sell them with no miles on them... all gain.

Still a really good idea to get people into the dealerships...

With their new Lifetime Warranty on the powertrain, I wouldn't mind winning one...

15 cars nationwide? Whoopty-f*ing-doo. The chances of winning one are so slim, it's not worth it for me to come within a mile of a Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep dealer.

I don't see any details listed anywhere about this. What do you have to do to be eligible to win? Just walk into the dealer and fill out an entry form??
