MapQuest Announces Crossfire Summer Giveaway Sweepstakes to Win a Chrysler Crossfire Roadster Limited

DENVER - August 7, 2006: Just in time for the last thrills of summer, MapQuest and the Chrysler brand today announced the MapQuest Crossfire Summer Giveaway Sweepstakes in which consumers have the chance to win one of the hottest convertibles on the road - the Chrysler Crossfire Roadster Limited.

Whether it's to plan a favorite summer road trip, a Sunday drive, or just conduct errands about town, people who try MapQuest's new Route Builder (users can map out a trip with up to ten destinations) will be able to enter the Sweepstakes for the chance to win a Crossfire Roadster, valued at approximately $40,000.

MapQuest's new multi-point routing system, the #1 requested feature among the millions of MapQuest consumers, lets travelers save time and money by mapping out their entire journey - and multiple destination stops in between - in one convenient step.

The MapQuest Crossfire Summer Giveaway Sweepstakes runs from August 1, 2006, to September 12, 2006, and is open to legal U.S. residents and the District of Columbia, who are 18 years of age or older.

They can also provide any commentary to the story behind their chosen route. People can enter once a day and also can increase their chances of winning by clicking the "Tell a Friend" tab where they can earn up to five additional entries for five referrals.

"What better way to hit the road than in a hot, new convertible?" said Jim Greiner, VP and GM of MapQuest. "MapQuest's Route Builder allows consumers to plot out an efficient route with a variety of stops along the way and the Chrysler Crossfire Roadster will get them to all their destinations with speed and style."

About the Chrysler Brand

Driven by the steady, consistent launches of award-winning new models, the Chrysler brand has seen a dramatic increase in sales, market share and brand image during the last 15 years. Chrysler brand sales have jumped a remarkable 357 percent since 1991, from about 130,000 units to 649,293 in 2005. No other American automotive brand has grown by that amount during the same period. The Chrysler Brand's succession of innovative product introductions -- which will include the Chrysler Aspen, the first-ever full-size SUV for the brand, and the all-new Chrysler Sebring later this year -- continues to solidify the brand's standing as the leader in design, engineering and value. The premium for the Chrysler brand is in the product, not the price.
