TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — The Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) has won America’s Best Looking Cruiser contest for the third year in a row.
It’s the first time any state has pulled off a three-peat in the contest’s history.
This year’s winning photo shows FHP’s sleek black and tan Corvette cruiser in front of a Miami sunset, with the city skyline glowing in the background.
The national contest is run by the American Association of State Troopers (AAST). This year, 49 states competed.
FHP’s winning photo will be featured on the cover of the 2026 Best Looking Cruiser calendar, which raises money for scholarships for troopers’ children.
