   Williams' winning entry included photos of her messy minivan, as well
as an essay describing how her favorite lipstick shades, her children's
favorite foods and her pets' unique odors decorate her vehicle's interior
as she zips to football practice, field trips and work.
   "I heard about the contest and wanted to enter my 'Circus Car,' as I so
lovingly refer to it," said Williams. "Our family of five practically lives
in our vehicle, and we are constantly on the go, while eating and drinking
on our way to the next event in our lives."
   "I can't believe I won! This will definitely keep me motivated to keep
our new family vehicle clean," she added.
   According to a recent study by contest sponsor Milliken & Company,
Americans are over-scheduled, over-worked and over-committed through trying
to meet the daily demands of a career, family and friends. However, drivers
still want to keep their car free of dirt and debris without committing to
a daily car interior cleaning regimen.
   Milliken research also showed that 70 percent of drivers surveyed rated
getting a vehicle clean with as little effort as possible as one of the
most important factors in maintaining a vehicle.
   "We've had a lot of fun with this contest - it evolved into a support
group for messy car owners, with participants representing nearly every
state in the country telling a unique story about their 'life on the go,'"
said Stacy Walker, Marketing Communications Manager for YES Essentials
products. "After reviewing the entries, we are convinced that in order to
find out just how your neighbor lives, you only need to peek through their
car window!"
   Based on the research, and in an effort to cater to drivers' busy
lifestyles, Milliken developed an automotive fabric technology able to
withstand and repel even the worst stains, to keep car interiors lasting
longer and looking better. YES Essentials interior fabrics and floor mats
can stand up against spilled coffee, dropped ketchup and smeared lipstick,
which come right out of the woven fibers. The fabric also reduces static
electricity, preventing shocks from sliding in and out of car seats, and
resists odor-causing bacteria growth.
   Chrysler is the first in the market to offer the YES Essentials fabric
in its vehicles in 2007 and 2008.
   "Chrysler is pleased to provide Maria Williams and her family with a
new 2007 Chrysler Pacifica Touring," said Jennifer Maren, Chrysler Pacifica
Brand Manager. "With a new more powerful engine, a new six-speed
transmission, seating for six and the all-important YES Essentials fabric,
we are confident that the Chrysler Pacifica will be a car the Williams
family is proud of and will keep clean."
   From Sept. 12 to Oct. 16, 2006, messy car owners were encouraged to
visit MyLifeMyCarMyMess.com to post up to five photos of their car, plus a
short essay explaining how a chaotic life has led to the turmoil in his or
her vehicle. An online voting component was also added for visitors to rate
the cars on a scale of "Squeaky Clean" to "Dumpster on Wheels".
   Contest sponsors YES Essentials and Chrysler Brand then presented the
winning family with an all-new 2007 Pacifica, and filmed a day-in-the-life
video to find out how the winner's busy lifestyle caused the mess in the
first place.
   Additional prizes included a car upgrade for two first-place winners -
with YES Essentials seat covers, floor and trunk mats - and sets of YES
Essentials floor mats for 10 second-place winners.
   The winning entries were selected by an independent judging panel, and
