He mentioned the car was a 2019.
AP did not come standard on 2019s (US sold or otherwise) until roughly April 11th of that year.

I'm selling my P3D- (have a buyer and a couple backups) and will be investing another 40k in TSLA. Am I crazy? 
Someone give me some feedback. Hardly anyone I know IRL 'gets' Tesla.

Normally I'd prefer others to support Tesla buy buying their PRODUCTS instead of their stock, but in this production limited environment, it's harder to argue against what you're doing.I'm selling my P3D- (have a buyer and a couple backups) and will be investing another 40k in TSLA. Am I crazy?
Is there any particular reason why Tesla CN local sales look down? Is this just prioritizing exports to the more lucrative EU market? Perhaps as a way to goose demand (Teslas sell other Teslas) prior to Berlin coming online?
Side note. Just drove to the bank in my Model 3 while wearing my SpaceX hat to wire some of my TSLA options gains in to buy more SpaceX shares. Can't wait for the Tesla Powerwall in my garage to get hooked up. Ecosystem achievement unlocked.
You could take out a loan and keep the car as "collateral" in your head. Not dissimilar to financing and just keeping your cash to invest.

The bad news is that Tesla can't make LFP batteries in the US.
The good news is that they will be able to in about 7 months when patents expire.

Advertising is the lifeblood of the media. Automakers, dealerships and oil companies heavily advertise. Tesla does not pay for any advertising. Elon says car advertising is phony. Nevertheless, money talks. So Tesla is fair game for negative articles, which assist advertisers.
Meanwhile in this internet age, headline writers have learned that the word Tesla is click-bait. This implies public interest in Tesla cars and stock shares. So despite the negative media bias, it seems that every day more and more people want to know more about Tesla.
Ultimately, the click-bait articles amount to free advertising for Tesla cars. As you note, the negative articles may turn off some potential shareholders. But they'll just be missing out when actual production and performance eventually trump the negative articles, resulting in higher share prices for those of us who continue to hold shares.
For what it's worth. I ordered a Model 3 SR the 1st of July, was told sept delivery. They have pushed it back to late Oct early nov.
Probably prioritizing higher margin models.

It’s worth noting that a counter to UAW’s political clout is building some momentum in DC.

Tesla is a member. I’m signed up for updates/newsletters.
For a company with a busted growth story, Tesla sure is growing quickly

Net net: more TSLA shares in good hands, same number of Tesla cars on the road (since Teslas are back ordered) - so a positive for Tesla and the mission.I'm selling my P3D- (have a buyer and a couple backups) and will be investing another 40k in TSLA. Am I crazy?
Which reminds me I really need to get going selling my beloved '08 Benz CLK, before my Model Y lands.

Hehe. Ok, so they're going to just try to hold us back from having a green day I guess.
Will you be changing your user name to MYL326?
That would really be cool if it made it to production:

Yeah values are high, I'm not driving it nearly enough, got a backup Model 3, and I will buy a new Tesla later if I need to but I'll finance and keep the cash invested. Seems to be a better use of the money than an under-utilized but gorgeous P3D- in my garage.

Thanks. Yes good for everyone, and someone who can better utilize the car can drive it while my cash works for me. When I need another car it'll definitely be another Tesla!
