To emphasize "deliberately misrepresented by Tesla", this is Musk's relevant statement: As the State of Charge log shows, the Model S battery never ran out of energy at any time, including when Broder called the flatbed truck. It obliquely suggests the car wasn't dead on the road. But it clearly was (or else Musk would be loudly calling it out). It's not the responsibility of the reviewer to figure out whether his car bricked because of an empty battery, or buggy software which mimicked an empty battery (displaying zero range, automatically shutting down).
