    Differernces between 2016 X and 2018?

    Seems like the big Q is if it is AP 1 or AP 2. We got our x in Dec of 2016. We have AP 2 and bought EAP and FSD, so will be able to get the AP 3 upgrade when it comes out. Other than that the only difference i've noticed is a change in buttons for the falcon wing doors.

    Any folding rear trunk mat for 6/7 seaters?

    I have the Lloyd rubbertite all weather mats for a6 seater. The rear mat covers the third row and cargo area but it can be cut with a utility knife to cover individual seats and cargo area. You loose a little protection but not much. I usually have the shelf in the lower position so this enables...

    Will skis fit inside the 5 seater?

    210s!! Haven't seen those sized skis years. I put my skis (Nordic and downhill) underneath the front passenger seat. I have a 6 seater so a little different rear seat posts. They fit almost parallel to the body of the car going underneath the front seat and on the inside of the monopost for the...

    Range in winter conditions and mountain driving

    I have family there and installed a HPWC at their place. PM me if you are ever in a bind and need a place to charge. I've also charged at the parking deck at the base of the ski mountain. Looks like steamboat is also supposed to be getting a supercharger sometime in 2018!

    Range in winter conditions and mountain driving

    Nice to know the reason for poor traction! We drove through Walden later that day but coming from Cameron Pass. Coming over Cameron the roads were snow covered but still fine. Tires handled well but not as good as last year when they were brand new (i now have 10k miles on them). There were a...

    Any ideas to keep the 2nd seat cup holders from popping out from little feet?

    Same thing happened to me but because of my dogs. Whenever they would rest their heads on the center armrest they would open the cupholders. Once it was open they thought it was a great step! One time I heard a unknown noise and closed it. Now it doesn't auto-open but isn't necessarily a bad...

    Slacker not working over LTE

    I'm having this problem too. I called Tesla service and they said that they have been getting a lot of reports that Slacker is not working over mobile networks (but it does on wifi...)

    6-seater headrests

    +1 I too find the second row to be quite comfortable and enjoy sitting back there on longer drives (normally i'm driving).

    Thule T2 Pro XT $463 or 1UP $609

    When you fold up the 1Up are you able to fit it in the lower storage area in the trunk?

    Thule T2 Pro XT $463 or 1UP $609

    I have the T2 Pro XT and really like it. My brother in-law has the 1-up and really likes it... We both use it carry around road and mtn bikes. You can't go wrong with either. I get a Thule pro-deal so i went with that. The X back hatch can open with the Thule in the upright position. Both are...

    Model X Winter Driving Experience

    I had this same problem driving my car in Colorado this winter during some of the big snowstorms. My garage is unheated so it never melted away either. It caused really high energy usage driving around town. Eventually I raised the suspension and used the ice scraper to get the snow out of the...

    AP2 / 8.1 : "Cruise Not Available"-AP intermittently not working in 17.11.{3,10} versions

    I'm referring to the auto headlights, not the auto high beam. It is a bright sunny day and the headlights are always on.

    AP2 / 8.1 : "Cruise Not Available"-AP intermittently not working in 17.11.{3,10} versions

    Also noticed that my headlights stay on all the time in the "auto" mode.

    AP2 / 8.1 : "Cruise Not Available"-AP intermittently not working in 17.11.{3,10} versions

    I got mine Dec 22nd. Have never gotten the "camera calibrating message" even for the earlier software releases.

    AP2 / 8.1 : "Cruise Not Available"-AP intermittently not working in 17.11.{3,10} versions

    I have this same problem. There were a few times where I would leave the house and not have autopilot or "cruise". After running errands and driving back home I would have autopilot, but only on 3 occasions. After the latest update (8.1 17.11.10) I haven't had any autopilot or TACC. Called...
