My friend was poking around on Google Maps and found this picture of possibly thousands of cars being stored at Reynolds Airpark Airport. After some research we found out that these are all Kias and are being stored here for some reason. The fishy part - they are all exactly the same color, and exactly the same model. What gives?

Perhaps a soon-to-be corporate fleet for some very large company?

It's possible they are not all the same color, As most come with that white protective film on much of the vehicle, especially the top portions.

My guess is its a temporary holding lot for their inventory before they go out to dealers. There are several around. Likely it's due to overproduction so they are being stored, and when needed they'll be loaded up and taken to dealers.

But i do suspect that they are different colors, just the film would have them appear to all be white.

Nope, the Koreans manufacture Autobots to look like the Kia cars. Once the Chinese have complete control of our economy, because of all the debt they're buying from us, they'll send the Autobots to each of our homes, and...

Damn, and here I thought since Kia is a South Korean company they we're going to be friendly robots.
