I love everything Tesla is doing except the price of the vehicles, which will come down in time with better battery tech and higher production volumes. I've never gotten any value from a car dealer, and being able to do on-site support for vehicles might actually be more efficient on the service front, too (with Tesla locations in major markets like the Bay Area). They could just pay for a rental car (like anyone buying a $100k Model S doesn't have another car...) during the wait to send a team to Wyoming.
I wish Elon Musk would go into some kind of medicine/healthcare startup next, after fixing cars and space.
Elon: "It's important enough to be on the scale of life itself, and therefore goes beyond the parochial concerns of humanity," Musk says of our interplanetary destiny. "We're all focused on our little things that are of concern to humanity itself. People think of curing AIDS or cancer as being very important, and they are—within the context of humanity. But curing all forms of cancer would improve the average life span by only two to three years. That's it."
"In other words, while eradicating disease is a worthy pursuit, and would extend the lives of individual human beings, my life's work is extending the life span of life itself."
He kind of did--he was one of the founders of Halcyon Molecular. They were aiming for low-cost DNA sequencing but things aren't looking too great. There are even rumors that the company has run out of funds and is shutting down.
