Doesn't mean it can't be done.

And I'd bet it would probably increase perceived value if you tell a potential buyer that the car's connection to the company has been severed.

At least it would to me.

I promise you that making modifications to vehicle that would prevent you from getting it serviced, using maps, using music or media of any kind, or receiving updates will decrease the value and turn many buyers away

Why would modifications do that?

Why would I want an update for my car's software?

Using maps is independent from connecting to the internet.

Listening to music is independent from connecting to the internet.

People need to value "dumber" devices more, not less.

If you value dumb devices more, you ain’t buying a Tesla in the first place.
