Today is our final 2007 Holiday Sweepstakes, and we hope you've enjoyed what we've had to offer so far. We think today's prize, however, is the biggest one under the tree. One randomly selected commenter on this post will receive a DashDAQ Series II valued at $695! This open source computer for you car can do almost anything. Out of the box it can display a gauge cluster in a variety of skins, show and clear diagnostic codes, and pull up data points from any of your car's sensors. But it's open source, so what the DashDAQ can do is only limited by the third-party applications that are developed for it. The Series II model won 9 SEMA International new product awards last month, and it's a more robust model than its predecessor with more processing power and additional inputs (two serial connecters, two USB ports and an SD card slot). Read more about its capabilities at DashDAQ's website, but make sure to enter to win it first.

NOTE: Because the DashDAQ Series II is our Grand Prize, we'll be accepting entries through 12:00PM EST on Monday, 12/17/07.

The holidays have a lot to do with smells: the musty scent of the tree after it's been trimmed, the taste of turkey in your nose after it's been set on the table, and the fresh lavender smell of your tires after driving over the river and through the woods to get to Grandmother's house. That's right, the prize for Day 4 of Autoblog's Holiday Sweepstakes is a set of Ultra High Performance Kumho ECSTA DX Aroma tires. Not only does this rolling rubber offer better grip than your standard fare from the factory, but special oils in the tread compound release a pleasant lavender scent after they've been warmed up. After getting a whiff of these, Grandma will want you to do burnouts in her driveway this year.

Keep in mind these tires are made in general for high-end luxury sedans, but Kumho will help determine what size it offers best suits your car.

"Get some rest Pam, you look tired." I've been saying that line to my girlfriend ever since I saw The Bourne Ultimatum in the theater, and I can't wait to hear it again at home when I get the movie on DVD for Christmas. Are you afraid Santa or a disgruntled spouse won't let you watch Jason Bourne tear up the Big Apple on your flat screen this Christmas? We've got you covered. The prize for Day 2 of Autoblog's 2007 Holiday Sweepstakes is The Bourne Ultimatum DVD, and we've got 5 copies to give away. This movie is worth a watch for the car chase alone, and the DVD also includes a special feature on how the chase was done.

As the holidays descend upon us, we find ourselves in the giving mood. So every day this week we'll be giving away auto-related items, starting with stocking stuffers like today's first prize: 10 1-year subscriptions to Ownersite.com valued at $24.95 apiece. For those of you who don't recall, Ownersite.com describes itself as a comprehensive web-based Vehicle Maintenance Reminder and Expense Tracking System. If you keep every receipt associated with your car in a shoe box, then you'll like Ownersite. If you want to know your car's average miles per gallon over the entire time you've owned it, then Ownersite is for you. If you're concerned about missing that suggested timing belt replacement at 50,000 miles, then you should enter this sweepstakes. Plus, we really like its ability to create a complete window sticker for your car when it comes time to sell your trusty steed.

The prize for 10 people includes a 1-year "Regular Plan" subscription to Ownersite.com, which will let you track and keep tabs on up to four vehicles.
