    StowAway Max rear luggage carrier - my experience

    I have heard that the tow package hitch maybe the same as the accessory hitch. due to the following: They currently have an option to install the tow package after the model x has been delivered. It specifically states that the tow weight is 5000 lbs and the tongue weight is still 120lbs...

    Will I be happy with a complete base MS60?

    I own a model s 60 2013 and a model x 90 2016. I love both cars but can attest that the great drive is what sells these cars. All the options are icing on the cake. Driving with immediate power at a pedal stomp, zero engine noise really feels unreal. I find that it lower's my stress when...

    Service costs

    Elon did say that the service centers are not there to make a profit. He may mean that in spirit, but I don't take his word literally as he hasn't kept all his promises. I have a earlier model s and it is supposed to store music but at never evoked. I have music storage with a usb drive...

    Body Shop Repair Costs--for me, a deal killer?

    I also have damage to my rear 1/4 panel. The tesla recommended repair shop quoted me $4800 for the fix. They said that the panel can be repaired and repainted. It does not need to be replaced. The Geico estimate was only $1500 for the repair at a much cheaper labor rate of $40/hr vs...
