Montgomery, Ala. (WDNews) – Alabama is once again in the running for a national title, and this time it’s not in sports. The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) is asking for help to win the American Association of State Troopers’ (AAST) Best-Looking Cruiser Contest.
The 2025 contest entry features Governor Kay Ivey and Miss America 2025, Abbie Stockard, posing with a Trooper Tahoe and a sleek ALEA Camaro — a photo meant to represent “Sweet Home Alabama” in style.
“With this all-star lineup, we’re asking everyone to join our team and vote so we can bring home another national title,” ALEA stated in the announcement.
“This annual contest is a fun way to engage in friendly competition with our fellow state agencies for a good cause,” said ALEA Secretary Hal Taylor. “We are grateful to Governor Ivey, who has always been a strong supporter of law enforcement, and Miss Abbie Stockard who represents the State of Alabama with grace and poise, for being special guests in this year’s photo.”
Voting is open now through July 11. The winning state will receive the “Best Looking Cruiser Award” and will be featured on the cover of the AAST’s America’s Best Looking Trooper Cruisers 2026 Wall Calendar. Calendars go on sale October 1, 2025, at www.statetroopers.org and will benefit the AAST Foundation, which funds scholarships for dependents of member troopers.
