    MX17 - FalconWing Door weather stripping deteriorating - Not covered by Warranty

    Looks very good! If anyone else is able to duplicate this owners' efforts, please take pictures and make a tutorial out of it. You would be doing many of us a huge favor.

    Front Bumper Camera

    I would wait for the front camera, as this will be the configuration that Tesla concentrates their resources on for all future software updates.

    2022 Used Model X Plaid or 2024 New Model X Non Plaid

    Definitely a tough choice! For me, I would lean towards getting the newer/refreshed Model-X. There are many small software upgrades that make for a more enjoyable experience. Additionally, it will receive better OTA upgrades due to having all of the newer hardware. I believe that if you get...

    Changing from a Y to X, regrets?

    I went from a 3 to an X. If sporty driving/handling is more important to you, then I would say stay with the Y. At my stage of life, I enjoy the comfort of the X. Also, I really like having a display directly in front of me. If you have not done so already, you should test drive the X...

    Took Delivery of my Cybertruck!!!

    Best of luck with your new CT! Looks like you'll be needing to extend that concrete pad a few more feet😁!

    Ultra Red now $2500

    This is disappointing, and makes people think twice before trading in for a refreshed MX. I'm thinking that the recent price reduction has caused an upward blip in sales, so they feel the need to apply the brakes.

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    Panel fit issues are one reason why you don't want to buy a vehicle during its first year of production. One common problem is the fasteners not holding properly, which is sometimes only fully corrected by a fastener redesign. The SC may indeed try to repair by hammering back into place, but...

    Water leaking through roof via falcon doors

    Prepare yourself - the seals are part of the FWD roof glass, and cannot be replaced separately. Hopefully it is one of the other seals. If not, you should push for them to replace the glass panels under warranty.

    Model Y to Model X?

    I went from a M3 to a MX. Would do it again in a heartbeat. It is simply a more comfortable vehicle for my needs. Once you get some time with having an screen in front of you, it would be tough to go back. I believe that the phantom braking issue is due to the vision-only version of...

    2017 Model X vs 2023 Model X

    This is an interesting thread, with many excellent points being made for both the older and newer versions of the MX. While I enjoy many features of my 2020 MX, my concern is that there will be much less support for it in the future, especially with respect to software upgrades. For example...

    Am I getting a good deal on a used Model X?

    Unless you need the 7-seater, why not buy a new one? The pricing is similar and you can utilize the EV credit.

    Thanks for the info; much appreciated!

    Help with seat care, please!

    You may be right, but it just feels very different from the vegan leather that was in my Model-3. I can just treat it as such unless I find out otherwise in the future.
