+1 Jon - that's progress. Self-service has started in Canada where apparently there are "EV service stations" handling out of warranty Tesla repairs. Ordering parts and service manuals should not be as hard as it has been. CPOs will age-out of the warranty window and are there now in some cases. Some of the "Drag racing boys" will also want to possibly do some fiddling on cars that have ended warranty support. Extending service and support capacities will actually increase value of the CPOs and used-car market.
Many folks like Tesla Pilot (6) and spentan (9+) are "taking" new cars and eventually will turn them into used cars through the various upgrades done to get new features. They're helping Tesla grow and repeat-buyers are definitely "to be thanked". However, without the constant upgrading to take new features, some folks would still be driving their 2013-2014 cars as long as possible. A P85DL is certainly fun - but when someone has the resources, a P100DL looks funner. And I suspect something like a P110DL is soon to be even funnerer.
