From the fine print

What the rules say

6 notes

Disqualifiers1

Any one of these can void an entry or a win.

  • Only three alternate winners will be drawn if earlier winners fail to qualify; after that the Grand Prize goes unawarded entirely rather than being redrawn indefinitely.

    Show the rules' wording· Prize Winner Selection and Verification

    “There will be three (3) alternate drawings after which the Grand Prize will remain unawarded.”

Advantages1

Things in the rules that work in your favor.

  • One free online entry per person per email address is allowed EVERY DAY for the full 3-month Entry Period, not just once for the whole promotion.

    Show the rules' wording· Entry Method

    “Limit: one entry per person, per email address per day regardless of whether one person has more than one email address or more than one person uses the same email address.”

Extra free entries1

  • No purchase or payment of any kind is necessary to enter or win, and a purchase does not improve the odds of winning.

    Show the rules' wording· front matter

    “NO PURCHASE OR PAYMENT OF ANY KIND IS NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN THIS SWEEPSTAKES.”

Timing1

  • There is no postal mail-in / AMOE route anywhere in these rules -- the Website entry form is the only way to enter.

    Show the rules' wording· Entry Method

    “Visit www.hotwheels.com/ramsweepstakes (“Website”) during the Sweepstakes Entry Period and follow all instructions to complete and submit the Sweepstakes entry form in its entirety”

Costs1

  • If the winner cannot personally pick up the truck at the Sponsor-selected dealership, an additional delivery fee applies and is the winner's own responsibility on top of standard registration/title/insurance/tax costs.

    Show the rules' wording· Grand Prize

    “If Grand Prize Winner is unable to pick up the Vehicle at the Dealer, an additional delivery fee may apply, which will be solely the Grand Prize Winner's responsibility.”

Oddities1

  • Unlike many vehicle sweepstakes, there is no cash-alternative option at all here -- the winner must take the truck as awarded or forfeit the prize entirely.

    Show the rules' wording· General Conditions

    “Prize is not redeemable for cash.”
