Looks like it’s over.


CHATOM, Ala. (WALA) -- Chatom Ford announced Wednesday it was ending its promotion giving free a gun, Bible, and American flag to customers buying a vehicle.

The dealership posted on Facebook that the Ford Motor Company has asked them to stop running the promotion.

Chatom Ford posted, "We were running a promotion celebrating this country's independence. Ford Motor Company has asked us to stop running the advertisement. They manufacture the products we are franchised to sell, so we are complying with their request. We appreciate everyone's support. All the phone calls and messages were so greatly appreciated. We will fulfill all commitments we made to our customers."

News of the promotion went viral earlier this week when the dealership announced the program in honor of Independence Day.

"It's grown a lot more than we anticipated," said Coby Palmer from Chatom Ford. "It was just something we just threw together."
