Car show!
 
I just saw that The Villages Tesla club is having a car show, they are charging (funny I know “charging”)$5.00 a person! Does any other car club charge a entrance fee when they show off cars?

Will "they" accept cryptocurrency ?

It’s a surcharge for the fire department in case one of them bursts into flames.

Ya, but I will cost 68.5% more than it would have last January first.

Why would anyone want to pay money, to see a Tesla in the wild? They're all over the place and they're not much to look at.

Maybe they're trying to start a slush fund, to provide "towing costs", when they're out of juice and can't find a charging station?

I have never had a charge for a car show, unless there were prizes involved.

$5 is a lot of juice to charge to see a Tesla, even in a short circuit. Watt? No I would not volt to ohm one as apparently CA legislators want all vehicles to be electric in the near future.

I would just pass on this Tesla show but have other plans anyway.

2nd Annual Electric Vehicle & Sustainable Energy Show – The Villages Tesla Club

How many gallons of fossil fuel are going to burned up, producing electricity to charge those Teslas, so they can sit in the hot sun before they get driven home?

Someone has to look up the word "sustainable".

They may have to pay a fee for using the Polo Fields.

It's the rising cost of electricity OR it's money to rent a generator to charge all those cars that are drained at the end of the show and can't make it home. ;)

I’m thinking they should pay us 5 dollars to come to the show. After you seen one Tesla you seen them all , some have duel motors some don’t lol

They all look alike and why do you want to look at someone else's debt and vanity. $10000 down and $1200 a month to drive around the Villages. And it's a "pretend" EV. You still need fossil fuel to make it work. Lol. 3rd Saturday of the month at Spanish Springs for a car show. 1991 and older. FREE

Even if they have to pay a fee for using the polo field, you shouldn’t throw a party if you can’t afford it.
