Lottery issues request for proposals for pickup
truck game
AUSTIN (AP) - The state Lottery Commission is asking for proposals
for trucks that will make Texans shell out their bucks.
The commission has invited interested vendors to submit proposals
to furnish 50 trucks as part of the prize structure for an instant
ticket lottery game scheduled to be offered in spring 1998. The
instant game will include the chance to win the pickup as well
as traditional cash prizes.
"Texans buy more trucks than do citizens of any other
state. We believe that driving the 'Official Truck of the Texas
Lottery' will add to the fun for our players," said Linda
Cloud, acting executive director of the Lottery.
The request for proposals calls for 1998 or newer full-size,
half-ton, 6-1/2-foot bed pickups with automatic transmission,
power steering and anti-lock power brakes.
They also must have a customized limited edition package consisting
of an AM-FM stereo compact disc player and clock, tinted glass,
deluxe grill, top-of-the-line trim package, floor mats with the
Lottery logo, cruise control, tilt steering wheel, exterior upgraded
mirrors, upgrades cloth bench seat and chrome step rear bumper.
Manufacturers are invited to propose other extras to make the
trucks an attractive prize.
Ms. Cloud said vendors have until 4 p.m. Dec. 12 to submit
a letter of intent. Proposals are due by 4 p.m. Jan. 23, 1998.Send
