My question. Why such heavy camoflauge this late in the game? Something we haven't seen yet?

It was also a model that was proably being taken to a place where it will be destroyed since it is one of the early pre-production models.

Perhaps they could drop it off at my place. I'd be happy to "destroy" it for them, free of charge, and handle all disposal related issues

How about this theory: it's an old, tired prototype that has been given to some Westcoast aftermarket company who will breathe new life into it as a project car for SEMA in November. B)

Doesn't Consumer Reports do their crash testing up there in the rainy corner?

I'm shocked that Ford used a Dodge product to pull the Mustang around.

Adrenalin, that was my thought exactly, why is a durango pulling a mustang.. So it might be like someone said about Consumers or another mag doing test drives
