Red face Chrysler's version of the Hot Button give away.

from The Car Connection
Chrysler Giving Away Cars, Too

Chrysler Group will join General Motors in giving away new vehicles to customers - but unlike GM's "Hot Button" campaign based around its OnStar telematics service, Chrysler's involves some endurance. In the Auburn Hills, Mich., automaker's "Stand By Your Van" contest, twenty contestants will stand to see which can keep one hand planted on a new minivan the longest. Chrysler is expecting the contestants with the most endurance could stand more than 72 hours as they try to win either a 2005 Chrysler Town & Country minivan or a 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contest begins Feb. 5 at the Chicago Auto Show. Contestants will have to write to Chrysler by 6 p.m. this Friday to be chosen as one of the contestants. GM's "Hot Button" contest is giving away 1000 GM vehicles to lucky shoppers who touch the right OnStar button at the right time at a GM dealer.

Not exactly showcasing a newer technology (OnStar) like GM is...

But, I guess they are at least giving away a few cars (though not even close to GM's 1000 vehicle give away).

Sounds more like a radio station contest.

It reminded me of that episode of "That 70's Show" where Kelso won the van in the same exact contest............. put on by a radio station!
