Yep, whenever someone say that GM/Ford/VW is going to destroy Tesla with their better mfg experience this is one of the things I drive home as Tesla's real advantage(along with the supercharger network).

Seeing the changes in the ~1 year we've owned a Model S has been incredible. For each new feature they add/improve they increase the value across the whole fleet(assuming AP hardware/etc).

Heck, they've said they already have a huge mapping network, you could start giving some of the major mapping companies a run for their money just with that data alone.
