The new church/corporate sponsorships are winning kudos from marketing experts, as this article from the Detroit Free Press reports. Here's a quote:

"As long as that doesn't happen, it's really great for Chrysler and the church," he said.

Chrysler's Kenyon said it's not about religion for Chrysler; it's about getting the Chrysler Aspen in front of a target audience.

hmm...I've been thinking that Bank of America Bible Methodist Church has a ring to it... :-)
