CHATOM, Ala. (WSFA) - An Alabama car dealership is getting national attention for its Fourth of July promotion.
Chatom Ford, located about an hour north of Mobile, is celebrating Independence Day by giving away a Bible, 12-gauge shotgun and American flag with every vehicle that is purchased.
“This is a small gift to our valued customers and a opportunity for us to celebrate our independence,” the car dealership said in a Facebook post.
According to the dealership, the first people to take advantage of the promotion was a couple who bought a Jeep.
The offer applies to all new and used vehicles.
Participants must be 18 or older, be able to legally purchase a vehicle and pass all checks associated with owning a firearm, according to the dealership.

Wonder how they are handling the gun giveaway...the liability must be a killer.

as long as they are doing the required checks for owning a firearm (which, according to the article, they are), there's nothing wrong/illegal.

and i say kudos to them for doing this promotion.

They are making people pass all required background checks from what I read.

Now, the question is what kind of shotgun. An over/under would be schweet!

Probably still be cheaper to purchase your Bible, shotgun, and flag separately. Just saying.

Could just build your own shotgun........or AK... or AR all perfectly legal.

It wouldn't entice me to buy a vehicle.

It wouldn't entice me to buy a vehicle.

If it was a Toyota one I bet you would think twice.

 

[planomateo]

LOL, I don't buy new cars anymore either. But yes, all my vehicles are Toyota/Lexus. Still wouldn't entice me to buy a vehicle from a dealership. I'm all about the bottom line, I don't want to pay extra for FREE stuff

My plow vehicle will be something else, hoping to score a late 70s f250.
