The Chrysler brand has launched last Sept. 24 on ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars” its new campaign ad for the all-new 2008 Chrysler Town & Country.

The all-new 2008 Chrysler Town & Country features Swivel n’ Go™ seating and storage system, SIRIUS™ Backseat TV and MyGIG™ multimedia system --- these features are intended to enhance family time and keep everyone comfortable, safe, and entertained.

The campaign with theme “Engineered Beautifully” also helps to reflect the style and technology of Chrysler brand products. David Rooney, Director of Chrysler brand was quoted by theautochannel.com as saying: "When it comes to the all-new Chrysler Town & Country, it’s not just about the driver, it’s about the whole family with features that provide a first class experience in every seat. For 23 years we’ve understood that some of the best family time moments take place in our minivans. We’re extremely proud of how our designers and engineers challenged themselves to imagine the possibilities of how we could serve the 21st century family. This campaign highlights new features that directly enhance the lifestyles of this new generation of families."

Chrysler has also partnered with Nickelodeon™ to supply kids’ entertainment such as shows like the boy-genius Jimmy Neutron which is a hit among children. There are also print ads that will appear in specialty publications with a photo of Jimmy Neutron in front of the Chrysler Town & Country, which encourages families to take photo of the Jimmy and the minivan with them as they create another family remembrance.

Aside from photos with Jimmy Neutron, they may also upload these photos at a Town & Country branded web site were participants may enter a contest to win one of the six prizes in which the grand prize is an all-expense paid family trip to the Nickelodeon Family Suites by Holiday Inn in Orlando, Florida.

Still part of its promotional efforts, Chrysler will also be sponsoring Nickelodeon’s Slime Across America mobile tour which is touring the country with a 2008 Town & Country display and offers the opportunity for families to have their digital picture taken with Jimmy and the minivan.
