Hello, I've been reading for a while but I finally registered and this is my first post. I'm MegaZone (my actual name) in Worcester, MA.
Thank you very much for these. I got my invite to design my X a couple of days ago but I've been hesitant as I've never ordered a vehicle without sitting in it. I'm 6'6" tall and big (400# - I look like I played football, but I didn't) so driver's position is key. The reason I didn't buy a Model S was that it was just a bit too tight getting in and out - banging my head on the door frame was an issue. Once I was in I could deal with it, but folding myself in and out would've gotten old quickly. So I decided to wait for the X as I figured the higher stance and roofline would resolve that. I was hoping to see a Model X in person before finalizing my order, but none of the Tesla storefronts or SCs in Massachusetts have received an X so far (I called and asked). These figures give me more confidence in placing my order.
I drive a 2006 Dodge Charger R/T Daytona currently, which I picked up new in 2005. It is a nice toy - but the Model X is even more sprightly, even the 90D. I'm thinking of going with a 90D 'Darth Vader' - Obsidian Black Metallic paint, black leather seats, black headliner, and carbon fiber trim - five seats, all the options, tow package, and 72A charger. I like the 22" Onyx wheels, but I fear Worcester, MA roads would eat them right up. So I'll probably get the standard silver wheels and maybe pick up some black 20" wheels aftermarket.
