    Refreshed Pearl White 90D Photos

    Question on that lug nut cover set: Can it fit any lug nut or just the OEM nuts? I have Gorilla lock nuts on my wheels right now. Thanks for the help, well done! Tweak

    X owner claims unintended acceleration caused accident

    Tesla Motors Inc (TSLA) Model X Accelerates Autonomously And Crashes Into Building Just read this story and I'm a bit suprised if this is even possible. I've driven over 1000 autopilot miles in the MX so far. This guy was a new driver, only 5 days old? I can't imagine it auto-accelerated...

    The automatic spoiler should be an option for 90D

    My parents just took delivery of their 90D and it does indeed have an active spoiler that you can observe moving to a closed position during auto park or summon. Can't remember which one. Was also pleasantly surprised that the 90D w/o premium has the automatic doors with just pushing the door...

    Wiki Model 3 Reservation Tally

    The Model S gets about 90 miles per gallon equivalent (33.7 kWh of electricity). The Model 3 is 20% smaller and perhaps as efficient, it may be more than efficient than this but lets just say the Model 3 will get 100 miles per gallon equivalent. So look at your electric bill and see how much...

    Back up camera unusable in rain

    new Trak Sport Snow Chains on Tesla Store

    I have a rear wheel drive MS with the stock all seasons in Boston, where the last two winters are some of the worst on record. It handled 85+ inches of snow across three weeks without problem (feel free to google image Boston winter 2015). You do not need chains ever. I have chains that I...

    Model X + 3 kids in car seats?

    On the MS, you can connect two hooks, each from separate car seats, onto the same LATCH. In this way, you can LATCH 3 child seats across the same row. Which begs the question, are the MX seats wider than the MS?

    Production X Configuration Has Begun!

    This is true and likely the case in California but on the east coast I've never encountered a situation where we couldn't supercharge and haven't even used a destination HPWC let alone fight for one. I do understand the volume is enormous in Cali but depending on where you are geographically...

    Production X Configuration Has Begun!

    48 amps = ~35 miles / hr 72 amps = ~52 miles / hr It's really not that big a deal when destination charging, particularly if you're sleeping at some inn.

    Production X Configuration Has Begun!

    Total +1, this is completely unfair, we should mass email ownership. My parents are 65+ they have no need for a 700+ hp SUV... this is for the lack of a better word... Ludicrous!
