I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

True enough, particularly since we're both speculating about future conditions.

The agreements that Tesla is making with landowners is interesting. Your linked article isn't very clear about what happens after the initial 5-year period is up. Does Tesla, at that point, start to pay rent on the space?

I had the same exact question. At first I thought that maybe Tesla would just transfer control to the local business, but then I remembered that Model S customers are guaranteed free SuperCharger access for the life of the vehicle. So I don’t think that would work. Maybe at the end of the 5-year period the business has the option to either shut the stations down or renew the contract?
