Our very first giveaway ended back in late September. We spent the summer throwing a pile of parts at a clean 2023 Polaris RZR XP1000, working with brands like ThumperFab, Yokohama Tires, MetalFX, and SuperATV to build our a rig that's as capable as it is good looking. Then we drug it around the country, showing it off and inviting folks to sign up to win.

And boy, were folks skeptical. We heard all sorts of reasons to not sign up, including that we were just trying to sell people's emails, that we weren't really going to give the thing away, etc. And hey, we get it. The internet is full of nefarious actors looking to take advantage of you. We're just not one of them. We never sell anyone's information, and we only send emails you want to receive. Simple as that.

We started the giveaway as a good route to build out the DirtHammer community, and as a way to say thanks for checking out the site and seeing what we're all about. It's a big swing for a small company, but it was 1,000 percent worth it. DirtHammer users got a free entry just for signing up with us, plus extra entries for bidding on DH auctions. You could also stack the deck by picking up a T-shirt or other swag from our merch store.

We had entries from all over the United States, but when the sweepstakes company drew the winner, Caden from London, Kentucky was the lucky guy. The best part? Caden bought a killer WR250R through DirtHammer a few months back.

Caden's a super nice dude who's putting himself through nursing school. When he isn't hitting the books, he's out ripping around the Daniel Boone National Forest on that WR. The RZR is his first SXS, but judging from his reaction when we dropped it off, it won't be his last. Enjoy it, man! Check out the drop off video below.
