A Free Hybrid!

It’s no secret that times are tight, and you being the stalwart environmentalist you are probably wish you had the extra cash to invest in a slick piece of green technology. Well, have no fear because I have compiled a list of contests where you can win a hybrid SUV or car. Because what’s better than driving a hybrid? Driving a hybrid for free! Register for your chance to win now, as some of these end shortly.

1. Opinion Direct. Opinion Direct is a website where you sign up to take surveys about your likes, dislikes and shopping habits. Right now, they are running a contest where if you sign up, you could win one of three hybrid SUVs: a Lexus RX 400h, Toyota Highlander hybrid or a Ford Escape hybrid. Winners can also choose to take a $50,000 cash prize over the SUVs. The contest runs through December 31, 2008.
2. TXU Energy. If you live in Texas, this sweepstakes could have you driving off in a 2009 Chevy Tahoe hybrid. This contest runs through November 5, 2008. Weekly winners for smaller prizes, like bundles of energy-saving light blubs, are also drawn.
3. Charter cable. Charter, a Midwest cable, internet and phone provider, is giving away a 2009 Honda Civic Hybrid and you don’t have to purchase anything to win! Hurry, though – this one ends on Halloween 2008.
4. Dancing for Toyotas. Can you bust a move? If so, you should make a video of your sublime dancing prowess and submit it by November 4, 2008 for a chance to dance for a Toyota at the 2009 Washington, D.C. Car show. Winners will get either a Camry hybrid or the popular Prius.
5. Tom’s of Maine. If you are more of a storyteller than a dancer, here is another chance to make a video and win a hybrid. Your video should be about a person who has been dedicated to preserving local water sources, especially rivers. If your story wins, you’ll get a 2009 Toyota Prius. The deadline for this contest is October 31, 2008.
6. Pick and Drive. Correctly guess the top 3 men’s finishers (in order) for the Sunday, November 2nd ING New York City Marathon and you will be in a drawing for a new Prius from Toyota. For a second chance, pick the top 3 women’s finishers…yes, they are giving away another Prius! Why not win ‘em both!

Best of luck to you! If you win a hybrid, let us know – you could also win the eternal fame and glory that comes with having your picture posted on HybridSUV.com!
