Become An Autopian Member Today And You Could Receive Random Car Swag Like This

Member Swag Ts

As car journalists, we are offered lots of gifts from automakers and brands, and for years, I’ve been accepting those gifts for one reason: So I can give them to you, dear Autopian members. Here’s a look at what we’ve sent out to random members as a “thank you” for supporting this humble car website.

Beau, as a prominent dealer for various car brands including Ford, VW, Land Rover, Lotus, Honda, Porsche and a bunch of others tends to be on the receiving end of gifts from brands, probably more so than I do. So he’s volunteered to reach into his chest of swag to give Autopian members some cool car stuff.

I’m not entirely sure what’s in this Ford Bronco Off-Rodeo bag that Beau donated, but I see a nylon strap and what feels like a tarp material inside.

We’re giving away some towels and air fresheners from the Bottas-Uber partnership (if you’re allergic to cats … maybe wash that):

We’re also giving out some Bottas air fresheners, speedos (yes, speedos), and plenty of Autopian shirts:

We’re sending out this Porsche “Edith” hat commemorating Porsche’s recent altitude record in the 911:

460454501 883594477044412 4801171947523081021 N

All of this has been carefully inspected by one of our Jeep-cats, specifically Nutmeg. There’s a lot more not shown, like BB Porsche shirts and caps, and loads of the really good press swag that is somewhere at the bottom of a box. I’ll find it, and when I do, I’ll be shipping all sorts of cool car stuff, including posters (!) to members.

Here’s the official Ram DT launch swag, a beautiful, painted paperweight. I’ll be giving this to a random Autopian member who’s LA-local since this thing weighs too much for my cheap arse to ship:

Pretty sure the Bronco bag is a portable hammock they sent out to anyone who had a pre-order in as an apology for production delays. As much as I had no intention of buying a whole Bronco, I might’ve sprung for that if they’d offered it with their normal merch, but seems to be swag-only.

Ooh, that toy VW would be awesome, and I’m curious what the tarp thing is.
There is absolutely some cool swag here and I would probably be happy to get anything. Even a speedo. Especially a speedo?

So this is like Sirius radio where you need to quit and then re-join to get the deal?

You should send random stuff to random existing members once in a while to say thanks.

I think they do, I believe the Random Number-Mo-Tron in Torch’s basement picks out some member numbers for that kind of thing. I’m still not 100% sure if I have all the swag I’m due for (Vinyl) but, eh.

Are you gonna wash that stuff first? You could only be allergic to Loch Ness Monsters and still break out in hives from all the cat dander.

That Chevy hat looks like you found it underneath a dumpster, adjacent to a bridge, floating in the L.A. River.

Don’t ever change, DT.

What is that, one of the non-US membership, uh, packages?

Don’t mind the used sweatshirt but Suburu? Actually a very good incentive for membership. I joined despite just dropping almost $4,000 on a rebuilt motor. But hey the $600 core refund might cover installation. Right? Maybe? Possibly? Please tell me it might.

I don’t know it might be nice to have the pocket stretched enough to almost fit. ????

I get where you’re coming from, but I prefer to do my own stretching.
