Bruce and Colleen Stangl couldn鈥檛 believe their eyes when they checked their latest emails on the morning of Feb. 1.
The Osoyoos couple thought they may have been the targets of an online scam when they read that a brand-new vehicle was coming their way after being selected as the winners of a Canada-wide contest.
On Friday, June 24, though, all their doubts were put to rest when they were presented with a 2022 GMC Terrain in Penticton.
鈥淚 saw an email from GM Canada and didn鈥檛 think much of it because the contest closed on Dec. 31,鈥� Bruce recalled. 鈥淣ext thing you know, I opened it up and couldn鈥檛 believe what I was reading.鈥�
The two made their way from Osoyoos to Penticton on Friday morning to see their new vehicle for the first time at the Murray Buick GMC dealership.
鈥淭his is just unbelievable,鈥� Colleen said. 鈥淲e haven鈥檛 told our friends and family yet about this, it鈥檚 meant to be a surprise.鈥�
As part of the contest rules nationwide, the winners could choose to own any GM product.
For the Stangls, however, the new Terrain made the most sense.
鈥淥ur dog is going to look really good in it,鈥� Colleen said with a laugh.
