spy cars

[bueller]

i've seen 4 concept/non-production cars in full matte black disguise on 3 separate occasions headed west from denver on i-70 early on monday mornings with michigan plates and no badges. the first two were smaller cars, then there was what seemed to be an a-class merc, and the one i saw this morning, was pulled over; some sort of LARGE american sedan--had pontiac grilles. each time, there's only one man (driving) in the car. how do you get that job??

They were going to Mount Evans I am sure for high altitude testing. If your on Mount Evans road always bring a camera. Dont expect them to pose the car as they will flee from you.

I was in vehicle integration for 2.5 years on the JS program... (200 and Avenger)

We would travel all the way across I70 and Denver was the first stop. Eisenhower grade pulling trailers...Loveland pass for high altitude... As well as mt Evans. We would then goto the Vegas area for Baker grade near Baker, CA.... Death valley, Vegas traffic, Mt Charleston... And then we'd goto San Diego and Mt Palamar for steering gear testing.......

Long days, lots of driving and taking the cover off and on and off and on the cars.....

It got old really fast.

A few years ago, we were vacationing in Frisco, CO and we did a daytrip to Mt. Evans with Mary's sister and her family. We saw a number of mysterious Japanese (or Korean?) vehicles being tested at Mt. Evans. My son and I would approach the cars when we were at a scenic stop and the Asian guys would act nervous, jump into the cars and speed off. The cars were clad in such a way that it was hard to say what they were exactly.

on my final trip of the school year headed west on i-70 this morning, i saw this coming up my six early just before he exited at copper mountain. an ugly mix of late 90s mercury cougar and lumina. michigan plates.
