It's more than that, Tesla owns the brand, the manufacturing, and the software.

They are much more than McDonalds.

I was going to mention that but I don’t know about it but assume they have some interesting supply chain, inventory management, marketing type software that no one will see, and just think about the POS, in store displays and web and mobile applications that millions of users interact with daily

But critically they don't own the sale. Will Tesla own point of sale, or will the Cybercab owner?
