How You Can Win 1 of 25 Free Hellcats in Dodge's Operation 25//8

Dodge has 25 different influencers who get to choose who should win their Dream Dodge car. We have details on who you need to convince to win your very own Hellcat!

We now know how you can get the opportunity to win your own Dodge dream car. When Dodge announced its Operation 25//8, as part of its ‘Never Lift’ campaign, the company said it was looking for people who push harder, run faster and over-deliver on behalf of Dodge and the Brotherhood of Muscle. Over the next eight weeks, contestants will be trying to convince 25 different Dodge ambassadors why they deserve to win their very own Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat or perhaps, a Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat.

“To recognize the Dodge spirit, the belief that 24 hours a day, seven days a week simply isn’t enough effort, Operation 25//8 will enlist a team of 25 people and companies that are all superstars in their fields, including Amazon, Travis Barker, Jay Leno, Cain Velasquez, Supercar Blondie and Draft Kings, to give away 25 Dodge dream cars during the last eight weeks of 2021,” said Tim Kuniskis, Dodge Brand CEO. “Operation 25//8 adds 20,000 horsepower to the Brotherhood of Muscle and is the first step in building awareness for our two-year transition plan to redefine the future of American muscle.”

Dodge kicked off the eight-week 25//8 contest with this video.

How the Contest Works

Dodge has selected 25 different ambassadors from the worlds of music, automotive, media, sports and fashion. Fans are supposed to follow their favorites, or all of them, to find out more about the 25//8 initiative. The ambassadors will be posting on social media like YouTube, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok and Facebook. Each influencer will ask fans to tell them, in 250 words or less, why they should be the recipient of a Dodge dream car. The 25 winners can order a new Dodge Charger, Challenger or Durango. Dodge even tells you how to follow the 25 influencers who will each be overseeing a free vehicle.

Amazon will be giving away a Dodge Challenger Hellcat. Customers can visit this Amazon page and sign-in for a chance to build and take one home.

Hello, I am Tamara Oest! I’m heading to college soon, and I currently don’t have a car to take me from point a to point b. Having my dream car, which is so beautiful would be the highlight of my life. Everyday I browse facebook marketplace looking for a good deal on a Dodge Challenger, but cannot find one that I can afford. I can drive a manual, which is very uncommon for young girls(my dad taught me), and to have this sexy car would make everything ten times better. It would also make my life so much easier, not for just me but for my family. I love dodge and I would love
to show my support and loyalty towards this company!

I I think I deserve a Hellcat because I am a huge fan of motor trend. Dodge, Jay Leno, Travis barker, this is my dream car and I would be absolutely ecstatic and blessed if I was to win one I mean I don't know how I could express my gratitude it would mean the world to me

I am 66 years old driving a Silverado which is 16 years old. I have always wanted a Hellcat but at this point it is just a dream. I would be the most grateful if I was to win this beautiful car. I follow Racer X and in my opinion the Hellcat is by far the best muscle car. Thank you for considering me to win this car. This old guy needs muscle.

I go above and beyond because I’m willing to work day and night to set a suitable down payment and comfortable monthly payments on a Dodge Charger hellcat because it’s what I want and when I want something.. I’ll do whatever it takes to achieve and 24/7 is never enough.. which is why I’m going the extra mile for 25//8. The confirmation from dodge discounting the hellcats in 2023 is a big killer to my plans knowing I won’t get the chance to own my dream car.I love dodge because there is something about the company that always seems to get it right which is why I’m ONLY sticking to dodge. The “No replacement for displacement”, the angry growl, and just the overall beauty of the beast look on the car is just on perfection. And it’ll be a good Christmas gift ◡̈. I’m Not looking into any other manufacturers because I’m 110% a true dodge fan and It even came to a point where I would watch YouTube videos and imagine myself in that guys shoes and and I hope one day I can be in that same POV.. but unfortunately it may not be the case of 2023 and this may be my last and only chance to own a Dodge Charger hellcat. Nothing will replace dodge!!. I want to represent the dodge brand and convince others to also buy dodge products. I’m willing to go the extra mile 25//8 for what I want!. Stay safe dodge family and Merry Christmas!!

while I was in a coma my challenger so bad I loved my car. It was taken by a finance company illegally. It ruined my credit and I'm on ss and do not have the money to pursue it with a lawyer. It made me cry. It would be a dream come true to receive a hellcat. Ps it would make my stepsons jealous of me again. However I know its only a dream and there are probably so many who deserve the so much more. Thank you and I hope your Christmas is very merry. Hank Perkins

Not sure if I deserve a Hellcat - Life is short - Take what you can get - I would drive a Hellcat the way I drove my Roadrunner when I was young and dumb. I am older and a little smarter - I still love the rush of Horsepower and the smell of melted rubber. I promise that my Hellcat will be a well known beast!

My whole life I have wanted a Dodge Challenger, it is my dream car. When the Hellcat came out in 2015, I told myself I was going to have that car one day. I am becoming an elementary school teacher and the kids would LOVE to see their teacher pull up in a nice ride. I would be the coolest teacher in town! You can make this dream come true if you pick me! Thank you for this opportunity!

I got very sick and spent almost 2 years in Briarcliff nursing home. They sold my car and almost everything I owned to cover the bill. Now I am well enough to work but I don't have a car or the money to get one. I still owe them a ton of money that I can't pay back unless I get a car to go back to work. thanks for your time and attention. Gayle

Wow! I have always dreamed of owning a Dodge Challenger since i seen the movie Vanishing Point. This such an awesome car. I actually got to ride in one at a muscle car show and was blown away at the speed, torque and power. I would be truly greatful both as a retired veteran of the armed forces and a huge fan of Dodge. Please consider me as a contestant for this beautiful muscle car.
Respectfully,
Richard Krier

2022 Hellcat Challenger. THIS is a Corvette's wet dream if there ever was one! Need I say more? No. But I will. Have you ever wondered if your triple ply Spanx, faux leather, molded leggings were durable enough? Just take a ride to the edge of hell and back at zero to 60 in just 3.5 seconds and see where the Spanx melded into the driver's seat! Even the best plastic surgeon can't pull the wrinkles tighter than the g-force from this machine. Mid-life crisis? Look no further. This is your ride or die. Cooler than a Harley and more comfortable than a classic GTO. Hard to beat I know, but for real. This is your magic carpet ride

If i can say that ive ever been honest about anything it would be that dodge has always been my favorite brand of automobile especially with it comes to the raw power and crisp most authentic sounding v8 ever from the hemi up to the jailbreak owning a hellcat or just a simple hemi would be a dream non the less ive always wanted/dreamed to own one and nothing would make me happier im 26 and still without a vehicle due to ups and downs in my life and obstacles that continiously re occur that make it close to impossible to be able to even afford a vehicle but that doesnt stop me from trying but it would be a god sent blessing if i were to win a hellcat to be able to own and cherrish as my first and only vehicle and i would be forever grateful and will walk a mile on my knees to show my gratitude..even if i dont win its okay cause life keeps going and there will always be other opportunities
