Tesla manufacturers the whole package and you buy the car as a package. You don&amp;#x27;t buy the metal from your local car dealer and the software as a separate thing from Tesla.&lt;p&gt;A more fitting analogy would be Apple charging you to upgrade your BIOS.</text><parent_chain><item><author>illumanaughty</author><text>Owners of photoshop don&amp;#x27;t get free updates even though they own their computer.
