That sounds like a neat contest. Who wouldn't like a Hemi for free. How about a Hemi powered Generator, you at least get use of the power it creates.

The mind boggles at the opportunities - a Hemi powered leaf blower (to really pee off the neighbors), a Hemi hedge trimmer (12ft to 2 ft in 6.1 seconds), a Hemi power washer (for those times you need to get the small stones out of your aggregate driveway).  

The list is endless. See one of the finalists is from Vancouver. Go, Canuck, win the truck!!

They already have a Brabus version of the smart, with 177 hP! I think that is scary enough, no?

I'd love to ride that thing!

Can you imagine?

I'd be leaving coloured skid marks on the pavement and swinging out the rear at every opportunity.

I just read the article.  Man, only 360 entries!  Surely somebody on here could have come up with a winner.  

I suppose the concept of a Hemi-powered arm twister in the business manager's office to try to improve sales of rustproofing and extended warranties would not have taken the prize huh?  Probably doesn't give them the marketing story they'd like.

I started a thread on this very subject and the forum jesters ripped it apart. 360 entries is a joke considering the market…..I’m sure collectively we could have come up with a winning combination

Did y'all know that DC has sold more Hemi engines in the last 2 years than Chrysler Corp did from 1967 to 1971 (the end of the muscle car era)?  

Interesting.
