*LANSING, MICH.*  The Michigan State Police (MSP) is competing in the American Association of State Troopers’ (AAST) 12th annual “Best Looking Cruiser” contest, and public support is needed to help the “Blue Goose” secure a top spot.

Voting is open now and runs through Friday, July 11, 2025, at noon Eastern time. Members of the public may cast one vote per device by visiting SurveyMonkey [ [link removed] ], the AAST Facebook page [ [link removed] ] or the official website at StateTroopers.org. [ [link removed] ]

This year’s entry features MSP’s 2024 Dodge Durango patrol vehicle photographed at an iconic Michigan landmark, the Mackinac Bridge and the Straits of Mackinac.

State police and highway patrol agencies from across the country annually compete in this friendly competition that has grown into a nationwide event that allows community members to support and interact with law enforcement agencies in a positive manner.

The top 13 photographs as voted on by the public will be featured in the 2026 “America’s Best Looking Trooper Cruisers” wall calendar, with the first-place winner earning the cover spot. Calendars will be available for purchase beginning in October at StateTroopers.org [ [link removed] ]. Net proceeds from calendar sales benefit the AAST Foundation, which provides educational scholarships to dependents of member troopers.

In 2024, the MSP placed ninth in the contest.
