A couple of weeks ago, the iconic Jurassic Park Ford Explorer was seen on a skid, headed to the Jurassic World set in Hawaii, and photos have finally surfaced online.
Any fan of Jurassic Park will take one look and know that this Explorer is a major part of the franchise history. This is the same vehicle that gave Malcolm, Grant, and Ellie the tour of the park. It’s also the same one that appeared in the showdown with the T-Rex.
One of the classic vehicles made a brief, but important appearance in the first Jurassic World movie. If you recall, the two boys uncovered the vehicle while on the run from the Indominous Rex, and used to to stage their getaway.

The film will hit theaters on June 22, 2018.
