FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich., Aug. 19 -- Chrysler Financial, a business unit of DaimlerChrysler Services, announced today the winner of a two-year lease from the "Freedom to Guess" contest held at Camp Jeep(R) in Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains. Chrysler Financial invited participants to guess the number of antenna toppers packed in a Jeep vehicle. Krista Geer, from Sigel, Pa., won the lease on a 2006 Jeep Liberty Renegade.

"Chrysler Financial's participation in Camp Jeep is an excellent opportunity to build customer relationships and strengthen customer loyalty while simultaneously introducing them to the wide range of products and services that we offer," said Kelly Mankin, Vice President - Chrysler Brands Marketing.

In 2005, seven out of every 10 Jeep vehicles are being financed through Chrysler Financial. The Camp Financial tent, sponsored by Chrysler Financial, Jeep Auto Insurance and Jeep Rewards Visa(R), offered a trivia game, which tested participant knowledge of the benefits of financing and leasing, credit health questions, history of the Jeep brand and Jeep product questions. In addition, Jeep owners had the opportunity to apply for a Jeep Rewards Visa Card and Jeep Auto Insurance.

Camp Jeep is one of the nation's largest and best-attended annual vehicle ownership gatherings. Almost 1,600 Jeep vehicles and more than 5,000 owners attended Camp Jeep in Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains. Core activities included test drives of the 2006 Jeep Commander, 4x4 trail rides and engineering roundtables.
