Kentucky State Police is asking for the public’s support (and vote) as the agency strives to regain the title of “America’s Best Looking Cruiser.”

The American Association of State Troopers (AAST) hosts an annual calendar contest and encourages state law enforcement agencies across the nation to submit a photo entry that is unique and represents its state. In 2020, KSP took second place with 48,459 total votes and was included on the calendar for the month of February. The KSP cruiser won the national contest in 2018.

This year, KSP’s photo entry features a 2015 Camaro, equipped with a 6.2-liter V8 power plant producing 426 horsepower and a 6-speed manual transmission. The photo of the cruiser was taken at sunrise at a Woodford County horse farm.

The winning cruiser will be featured on the cover and premiere in the January 2022 AAST wall calendar.

“This year’s photo submission represents the bluegrass with imagery of what we are best known for – horse country,” KSP spokesman Sgt. Billy Gregory said. “We selected a photo that not only represents Kentucky State Police but also the citizens we serve on a daily basis.”

Voting began Tuesday on the AAST Facebook page or you can go directly to https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/bestlookingcrusier2021.

Voting will end on Tuesday, August 3, at 11:00 central time. The top 13 finishers will earn a spot in the 2022 calendar.
