I have no idea where the Obama reference came from and agree it has no spot here, but you can't separate Elon Musk from Tesla. Tesla's corporate actions and fumblings move at the whim and direction of and as follow up to Musk's erratic behaviors, random Twitter postings, and other public statements. That is a huge part of the problem with Tesla (if not also one of its strengths).

The real update is Tesla decontenting their car after selling it to a 3rd party dealer. If true (and with Torchinsky reporting, I'd have to assume it is), it really hits a nerve. Wouldn't this hurt their resale? Which ultimately means you're shooting yourself in the foot. Or is it intentional and a business model, they want to monopolize the secondary market cutting out independents. What if individual A sold to individual B? Perhaps they really view cars as mostly software.
