Ready to Hit the Road in Style? This Sweepstakes Is Giving Away a Van and $25K in Cash
Imagine rolling into fall with your own decked-out RAM ProMaster Van and a $25,000 check to soften the tax blow. That’s the real, road-trip-ready energy behind the 2025 American Explorer Van Sweepstakes, hosted by Winston Cigarettes and ITG Brands.
This is not your average sweepstakes. The total prize pool tops $160,000—with a single grand prize winner scoring a fully equipped, pre-owned 2021 RAM ProMaster 2500 (valued at $88,675) plus $25,000 in cold hard cash. And they’re not stopping there—500+ other prizes are up for grabs, from TIKI smokeless firepits to camping chairs and Brumate tumblers. It’s giving adventure, it’s giving glam campercore, and yes, it’s giving completely free to enter.
But here’s the catch (and it’s important): this sweepstakes is only open to adult smokers 21+ who are registered WinstonCigarettes.com members, and it’s not valid in AK, HI, MA, or MI. Also—double check this—there is no daily entry. You can either redeem Winston Rewards Points (50 points = 1 entry), or go old-school and mail in a postcard. Yup, mail-ins still work, and you can enter multiple times that way too.
Let’s break it all down.

What You Can Do With the Prize If You Win
Let’s start with the big one: the 2021 RAM ProMaster 2500. This isn’t just any van—it’s the kind of ride that screams vanlife. Whether you’re dreaming of off-grid camping, mobile content creation, running your own small biz on wheels, or just ditching the 9-to-5 and heading west, this van is the blank canvas for it.
Not handy? Use the $25K to get it customized. Solar panels? Fridge? Fold-down bed? Done. Want to road trip to every national park? You can afford the gas. Want to flex on your group chat? Drop a selfie in front of the Grand Canyon and say “van courtesy of a sweepstakes.”
Not into travel? Sell the van and pocket the proceeds. There are no strings on how you use the vehicle—other than showing valid driver’s license and insurance when you claim it.
And if you don’t score the van, don’t sweat. A firepit, camping chairs, or a tumbler still means you’re summer-ready and living your best outdoorsy life, even if it’s just in your backyard.
