I ordered mine one year before you and still don’t have it. Way to rub it in! Seems like a lot of us are now bumped to Dec 22-April 23. Good thing I just got my Model Y. Any possibility there is some amount of Model X re-tooling going on to account for the delay? This is the most absurd thing...

Oh god! I just saw this and went to look at the app. After the EDD changoing about ten times, we had been looking forward to a July delivery date since February. I now have the same EDD date range as you. Blue-on-white LR six-seater. Reserved end of January 2020.

Is this video showing a power front trunk also? Or is this an aftermarket thing?

You might want to go ahead and top off the coolant yourself before your trip. Some of it will drain onto the ground , but presumably will provide some protection for the batteries versus having the coolant run dry. Remove the 12 bolts holding front trunk basin with a 10mm socket. Tesla uses...

White is the most impressive IMO. When we bought our X, the black material didn't look or feel as premium as the white material. I believe Tesla has upgraded the black material so it is now just as soft as the white. Four and a half years later, our white seats still look great. I wipe the...

This happened to my '17 X in 2019. It's a thick cast cast piece that's strong until it cracks. Then it falls apart. The ranger replaced it in about five minutes. Just remove the loose pieces and schedule a service. It should operate fine until you can get it replaced.

The alignment might be because it took a hit right at the door. It’ll probably take four months and $25k to repair.

Yep. My lease was up in December of 2020. Tesla has been extending it for over a year now. Was supposed to have it in June, then August, then October, then the estimated delivery jumped to January and now February. As long as we get it soon, I’m fine with this. I don’t want one of the very first...

I’m not canceling. There’s no point. But I’m open to other brands now. Before last week, I wouldn’t have thought that was possible. I’ll decide what to do with the X once I get a real delivery day. At this point I’m not confident in any date they provide, and certainly don’t believe that it will...

Yesterday the EDD was blank, today it’s January. Over a year after I ordered a replacement, and have extended my current Model X lease four times. As much as this pains me, I don’t think I can stick with Tesla any longer. They are too boneheaded and disorganized.

I was only talking about the exterior lighting. Completely agree with you. I’ve lost any love for Mercedes interiors. With the gummybear ambient lighting everywhere and the entire dashboard being a series of screens, it’s as if they were designed by the same guys who created bloomberg...

I am a bit surprised that the exterior is largely unchanged. It can barely be considered a mid-cycle refresh. Aside from the bumper skins, the exterior panels and lighting are visually the same as before. I would have thought that at least the lighting design would have been updated. Perhaps...

Clearly you haven't been following the Ford Bronco rollout.

In which area? There are several locations with the RN, and I'm not seeing the EDD anywhere. On the old app, it was showing October. But with the app update, it's not showing anything.

Beautiful. I’m in queue for a blue one also. Interesting that these don’t have the updated black wheel finish.
