AAPEX Buyers Can Drive Away in a New 2003 Ford Ranger

Las Vegas October 31, 2002; Automotive aftermarket buyers have yet one more reason to attend the 2002 Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) -- a chance to win a new 2003 Ford Ranger pickup, compliments of Motorcraft (Ford Motor Co.). AAPEX will be held November 5-8, 2002, at the Sands Expo Center in Las Vegas.

Motorcraft (exhibit #5900) has donated a 2003 Ford Ranger for the 2002 Buyer’s Appreciation Drawing. In addition to the Ranger, buyers can also win one of 20 color televisions donated by the Automotive Aftermarket Industry Association (AAIA) and the Motor & Equipment Manufacturers Association (MEMA) – the show’s co-sponsors.

All buyers who register for AAPEX and the SEMA*ITE Shows are eligible to enter the drawing to be held at 1 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 7 in the upper lobby of the Sands Expo Center, adjacent to the Ford Ranger display. Buyers can enter to win by dropping their ticket in drawing drums located in the Motorcraft booth 5900, and adjacent to booth 180.. Winners need not be present to win.

“AAPEX is the most important trade show of the year for Motorcraft,” Bill Flynn, Motorcraft sales and marketing manager. “Contributing an all-new Ranger to the Buyer’s Appreciation Raffle is a further demonstration of our commitment to the aftermarket and how we value meeting our customers and prospects at AAPEX.”

Motorcraft’s exhibit this year will be 3,500 square feet. Buyers will have a chance to view first hand many of Motorcraft’s premium quality parts and to speak with products and sales specialists.
