Default dunno

Must be a method to the madness? Some short lines, some long ones, some with gaps in the middle. Staged for a purpose curious to know what it is.

I did some quick calculations using some photoshopping to fill the rows. If you got rid of the transporters and packed the big rectangular area, just avoiding the light poles, you could get about 1600 cars in the square parking area.

I not doubting they are C7s but look closely at the two overhead pics. The order of the cars by colors is all different. Why have they been moved? Did they need to take them back into the factory to fix issues?

LOL all these guys not wanting a dealer to wash them or detail. Going to
keep it under a cover. But now they are just sitting out in the weather,
bird droppings, whatever. shuffled around by unknown butts in the seats

Hmm. I was going to just write off your comment because obviously they move some of the cars in and out (thus the single-car gaps in the columns). But you are absolutely right... There is not a single pattern match in any column between the early picture and this picture. Every car on that lot has been shifted between the shots.

Must be all the constant bird-poop washings!

Page one of this thread says 39 VY cars were pulled and shipped to Bondurant. Maybe they just rearranged to fill in those gaps.

Area Z51 The Movie. That would be great. I'm sure Talon90 would agree the area is frequented by the patrol of the 101 First Airborne "The Screaming Eagles" from nearby Ft Campbell KY.

I would think some of the first cars go to Kerbeck, the Worlds largest dealer for the showroom.
