Fuck Tesla

Let's leave Obamas, Elon's $90M frivolity and all other associated jacks out.

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.
