Teslas, which are soon to be built right here in Nevada, are extremely nice
city cars but you will need a $160,000.00 Jeep American Expedition Vehicles
(AEV) Rubicon Brute or a Jeep Special Operations (SPLOPS) Rubicon to hang
with the big boys in field :)
What does a Tesla have to do with a trade show for Gems and Minerals other
than not burning any "fossil" fuel? I wouldn't park my 65 Cobra 427 SC
which gets between 4 to 8 miles per gallon anywhere near Tucson for fear
that somebody might steal an irreplaceable piece of chrome or emblem from
it.
Good luck with the show and I will enjoy the Superbowl, And this Spring, I
have a gut feeling that some lucky meteorite hunter is going to find the
first North American lunar meteorite on a private ranch which can only be
reached by a dirty and muddy road.

Good grief. Why worry about it? You aren't here.
I drive a $130,000 tesla, and I got parking and even made it through the
mud! I wouldn't subject it to any bad parking conditions.
You would think by your post that somehow Tucson has become The Congo. Just
play on eBay and leave Tucson to the dealers:)

The reason there were no parking spots left is that the overflow parking
in the dirt was muddy from what I was told from a fossil buyer who left
early in disgust. Everybody knows that there is no where near enough
parking at the Insuites to begin with, even under normal circumstances.
There were many spots available Thursday from what I was told, the first
time I have heard this during all of the previous shows I have attended.
You used to have to circle two or three times to find a spot even with the
overflow parking open.
I am not there this year so depend on reports from others and what is
published in the in the media. In any case, I am glad to stay home this
year.
I hope those that spent the money to visit the show are rewarded with some
good deals. I just have not heard of any at this point. Only 9
meteorite vendors bother to post the Tucson Show information request, the
lowest number I have ever seen since it was started.
