Reynolds Airpark Airport is a Privately owned airport of the Clay County Port Inc. After a phone call to the property manager of Reynolds Airpark, they are not an Air Force Base they are a storage facility for used containers and out-of-service rail cars. The vehicles on the runway are new KIA's that were waiting to be delivered to dealers. They are long since delivered. They are NOT UN vehicles. PLEASE DO NOT SPREAD DISINFORMATION! DO THE RESEARCH!
Thankyou to whoever posted this - You just saved us a trip to Florida.
Bravo!

Am I the only person who noticed that this airport also has a modest harbor, in addition to a few railways? I used Google Earth's historical image feature and there were no cars at all until the picture taken on November 12, 2007. Between then and the next picture at December 30th, 2007, all the gaps in the November lines were filled in, but no new rows or columns were created.
Also looking at the December30th Picture, you can kind of make out some markings that would indicate a parking spot. These lines are hard to see on the most recent picture, since the cars are blocking them.
The next picture is January 27th, 2008. Now the entire vertical and horizontal strips are full of cars. Now comes the weird part: There is not a single difference between the January 27th, 2008 and Current Date. Not a single car has moved even an inch. Neither has any other car in the area. Neither has the boats or the freight containers. Very Odd...

I'd still like to see someone go over there and check. 8500 white KIA vans??? Sure sounds odd to me...

My first post, not sure if this is wise, but feel compelled... I am a manager for a dealer. I have been either in or around the business since the summer of 1995.
NEVER have I heard of ANY dealer or distributer using gov. property or public property as a staging area for distribution. I can't clearly tell what color these vehicles are. IF they are white they could be fleet rentals in a staging area...unlikely. If they are NOT white then they are not typical fleet vehicles (rental co., etc.). They would be special order...which is rare these days because "special" slows down production.
If KIA (or ANY manufacturer) is using an active military base as a staging area for distribution of inventory...that is a story for an investigative reporter to follow up on.
