The "Dodge Durango Tango" challenge continues Chrysler's tradition of kicking off the State Fair of Texas with a fun, interactive consumer event. Last year, 120 fairgoers dove through 14,000 gallons of mud for a chance to win an all-new 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. In 2005, fairgoers from across the country competed in a series of "Mega" contests, including the mega hair and mega belt buckle competitions. This year, in honor of the Dodge Durango's bold looks and head-turning moves, Dodge is challenging consumers to show off their moves in a one-of-a-kind endurance dance contest.
