Dadoffourgirls,
Yup, one of the many benefits of living in Michigan's Lower Peninsula is seeing 1 or 2 or even 3 year ahead vehicles running around the streets and highways. Usally they are camouflaged somewhat in various ways and a few have been seen wrapped in an opaque plastic film or a nylon type material. Our son and wife lived on Sears Lake (Milford, MI) for 3 years which is less than half a mile north of General Motors Road and right across Hickory Ridge Trail from the huge GM Milford Proving Grounds. Seen new GM vehicle models a few years before their model year build very often on the Milford area roads when we'd visit him. Not only GM's but some Ford and Chrysler vehicles/prototypes also. We even see them a few time a year here on the Lake Michigan side if the state. Obviously they were hand built prototypes as the production tooling hadn't been made yet or even released for building.
