Probably to simulate snow ingestion to collect cooling data on...

I'm with Marz.
They've been using AGS on the Fusion, so I could see this coming for all the future designs if it works as advertised.

Ok here are the rest of the pics from my excursion. Notice the RANGER! And the strange front end on the Taurus. And the funny fuel door recess on it as well.

Looks like Fusion wheels on the Mustang mule. And possibly testing new Taurus based off a stretched Fusion platform?

Perhaps he's sent 'em to Autoblog/Jalopnik/Leftlanews and is awaiting his cheque. That's the only logical explanation because he HAS to have take photos of the most important car there. Surely?

Oh, and this one's actually "our" current Mondeo. From the A-pillar back, it's very similar to the Fusion

You mentioned Taurus, yet I didn't see one anywhere, just a bunch of Mondeos and Fusions.

I thought that looked like the Mondeo lights (front and rear). Is that Mondeo longer than the new one? Looks longer...

Mondeo? Oh. Ok. Most if the stuff was gone. I'll swing by again today to see if there's anything new.

It's a shame that there are open hood pics of the other cars but not the Mustang mule.

Thats why I thought it was a Taurus. Its the size of a Taurus.

Most of the stuff there was NOT U.S. bound stuff. Mondeo, Ecosport, Ranger. Wish we were getting the Ranger. Its a good size truck. MUCH bigger than the old model. The front looks like the Explorer. And its about the size of it too. And the Ecosport is quite small. Like Kia Soul sized.

Keep an eye out and a camera handy.........yes, we think the full camo'd fastback may have been the S550.

No pressure, but you'd be the first to photograph it and would go down in Mustang history

Sadly, Ford probably saw this post and moved the S550 elsewhere

Good job though Anrev! Like TT said, keep your camera ready!!

Thanks for the additional pictures, interesting seeing the active grill shutters on the mustang. They're doing everything they can to get highway mileage outta the car. Hopefully we wont see and Super fuel economy option of the mustang though.
