cool and true story!
the guy across the hall from me here at work is from Chicago and drove home for Thanksgiving (from St. Louis)
Driving back home from Chicago Sunday, he was just North of Springfield and saw a Trooper on an overpass pointing the "gun" down at oncoming traffic. he slowed down but the guy in front of him didn't. after they went under the overpass, in his rearview mirror, he saw a dark Mustang coming down the on ramp very quickly. it passed him and pulled right in front of him and pulled over the guy who hadn't slowed down.
my coworker said he was amazed to see it was a Bullitt that the Trooper was driving. it had 5 antenae on it and flashing lights INSIDE the vehicle.
now at 1st, i was skeptical saying "are you sure it was a Bullitt?"
but he looked at me and said "Marty, i see your car every day in the lot, i see your posters and pics in your office, and i see the screensaver on your computer....EVERY day!! i think i can recognize a Bullitt by now"
anyone else seen or heard of State Troopers using a Bullitt in Illinois?
