Wow!

[stars & stripes forever]

Spontaneous combustion? NOT.

[al baby]

Arson for profit ?

[rktman]

Hmmmm! Wait until it gets the actual summer heat. Rental cars most at risk?

[HombreSecreto]

Insurance scam?

Do we need some insurance money?

[Bell Bouy II]

Another casualty of CV 19.
Normal times those cars would have been clogging the SW Fla road ways no parked.
Revenue lost big time too

Looks like a storage lot of unsold new cars to me due to the way they are parked:

[CodeToad]

Supposedly, they were rental cars.

[Robert DeLong]

Okay, that makes sense.

[SaxxonWoods]

It’s going to take a lot of emission credits to cover that one.

[rigelkentaurus]

Did they park any battery powered cars in that lot?

[stars & stripes forever]

Dead body in a car?

[nascarnation]

Most of the cars had batteries, except the ones that had been poached by errant youts unable to play midnight basketball...

[americas.best.days...]

$77,000,000 worth of cars? Okay.

We’re they rental returns that no one wanted to clean out cause of the VIRUS?

(3516 x 22,000)

If you let them bake in the Fl sun for a week, I think they would be fine without any sanitizing.
