What this fundraiser was
Our shortest luxury vehicle fundraiser to that point: a hybrid Lexus flagship with a third row, lifted on 22-inch Vossen wheels and Nitto Recon Grapplers, with a Baja Designs light bar, rock sliders and blackout trim. Westcott Designs built it to look OEM-plus rather than overbuilt: a family SUV that can still leave the pavement.
The announcement
We called Eddie live on Instagram and Facebook. He chose the $100,000 cash. That is allowed under the Official Rules and it is his call; it also meant the Lexus stayed with us, which became the 2nd Chance Lexus fundraiser a month later. Eddie met us by video; there was no Arizona visit.
