$5 for the honor of looking at someone's Tesla? No, thanks. I'll take my five bucks and buy gas with it.

You can see them for free at the Tesla showroom in Orlando Florida Mall. You can also schedule a free test drive (I did) . But as others have mentioned, there are only a 4 Tesla models (X, 3, S, Y) … So if you have seen 4, you have seen them all. (Oops forgot the 5th model .. the special edition “burned up” version … but not available in the showroom yet)

I realize it is a Tesla club, but I suggest you look into general EV clubs in the area (maybe Ocala or Orlando). They are free and you will be exposed to a much wider, and more interesting, selection of electric vehicles. I drove a Tesla for two weeks and never got used to having to look at the big iPad - type screen on the right - very distractive. There are better EV's out there . . . I drive a Jaguar I-Pace which I bought used and love it. Check out the Kia EV-6.

If this car show is at the Polo Grounds then most likely it's The Greedy Morse Clan charging to use their facility.

In our village in UK, they say the new internal combustion engine will soon be on sale.
Can't see it replacing our fleet of trucks!

Thank goodness for the Greedy Morse Clan. Without them, their vision and their continued caring we would not have such a beautiful place to live.

You never pass up a chance, even sometimes created. Give it a rest.

Yes, they should simply pick up the tab for additional security, parking, damage to the fields, trash collection, etc, etc, etc...

How dare they expect a private club to pay for those things!

The ONLY way I’d spend $5 to see a Tesla is if Musk was personally showing that red Tesla Sportscar Roadster that’s up in the universe now.
Tesla’s are a dime a dozen. Yada. Unless one is seriously considering buying one…?????
