Good to see so many posts like this.
I picked my X up a couple weeks ago at the Fremont plant. Like yours, it was perfect.
They spend a lot of time with us, going over many on the more important features, and explaining that while the learning curve on them is steep, that it is is also relatively quick.
Driving home to San Diego was a relevation. So many of the things I was worried about quickly became non issues. Driving the X is just like driving any other SUV. You have great vision from the higher riding height. The car rides quietly, smoothly, and handles well both around town and on the highway.
I was worried how to figure out how often to stop and how long to remain plugged in. The Tesla app handles all that. I was shown on the display which superchargers to stop at and for how long. When enough charge was obtained (15 minutes) my phone alerted me that the car was charged enough to make it to the next stop with the reserve I had requested. It also notified me when the car had become fully charged, and no longer needed to be plugged in. We were having a nice meal, and enjoyed to chance to speak a bit to each other about our trip and found it to be a very civilized way to travel.
We realized that the Tesla was educating us on it's ways. Like it was communicating with us and indicating when it was ready to go, but not telling us when to go. The app lets us know exactly where it is parked, it's state of charge, and even the interior temperature in case we want to adjust it a bit while it is charging up.
In all ways the X was better than we had expected, especially after reading all the negative stuff on the forums.
First impressions, now with over 1,800 miles on it, is that it is a spectacular road car. The stereo is above par, the interior space (5 seater) is superior to our previous Grand Cherokee, the dog loves riding in the way-back and is much more relaxed, the storage cubbies in the frunk and hidden rear compartment work out great, the heat and AC do well, and are pretty quiet, the standard air filter seems to remove lots of smells and all dust, the brakes (both regeneration and steel) are smooth, powerful and quiet. The large vista windshield is remarkable in making the interior feel even more spacious. The center console is both beautiful and well though out. Most all size drinks fit well with the adjustable cup holders. We did not use the arm wrest cup holders, but like the idea of having the extra capacity.
Plugging the car in every night is becoming second nature, and we enjoy waking up every morning to a freshly charged car. Nobody wants to take our Mercedes anymore, especially if it entails a trip to the gas station. It pretty much just sits there getting dusty.
A surprising bonus was discovered today when we went to a friends house, and took a shortcut down a little used dirt road with ruts and stutter bumps. The all wheel electric drive again was far superior to our Jeeps. It took the bumps smoother and did not skitter around over the stutter bumps as did our Jeep. If felt so secure and sure footed that we both commented that it was a far better off roader than we could ever have suspected.
While we fully expect to see some complications down the road, with this new generation of electric transportation, our initial experience has been over the moon.
