    V8.0 Autopilot prevented a rear-end collision

    What did you do during the time your car was beeping and as you saw the grand Cherokee ditch into the median, and as your hurtled towards the corolla? I know it happened fast, but surely you had time to respond. I don't ask to be snarky, I'm just curious whether or not you took over, or if you...

    Darth Vader or Stormtrooper??

    I did white with black seats and love it. It is a stormtrooper. "Finn," in fact. White on the outside, black on the inside.

    Black paint or Midnight gray?

    definitely blue.

    Sun Visor broke - lost TPS & FM

    It wasn't until I saw you had a flat tire did I realize what TPS meant. I've always been concerned about those sun visors. They don't move fluidly, and I always feel that I'm putting strange pressure on them when I'm swinging them. Like an old man's shoulder that doesn't swing quite like it...

    Annoying Vibration, Passenger Door... I think

    Sounds like we have the same vibration / rattle. Mine has gotten progressively worse over 2+ months to where it now happens at nearly all speeds and at all times except for newly surfaced freeways. It was easily identified as being from within the speaker because a friend put pressure on the...

    Good ole Country Cousins, I bet?

    Things you didn't know about your Model X

    I too am abnormally concerned about how my driving / braking appears to those behind me. I always have been, even before the Model X. I've now been driving the X for about 3 weeks. It took about a day to remember it was going to regen, and not clumsily come to a stop 50 feet short of a stop...

    Will it ever be possible to order a MX in this config?

    With a baby on the way, you may want to rethink the multi-pattern seats. Nothing will be easier to keep clean than black leather. And it is ~really~ comfortable. Many people claim the multi pattern seats are a great choice, but many others claim they do get dirty easier, as any kind of mess...

    In-car Trip Planner vs EV Trip Planner

    This sounds perfectly appropriate for my trip. I wanted to make it from one supercharger back to the same supercharger. Hmm. I thought TMC was the manual. ;) In all seriousness, I have read the manual. However, there are so many new things that I'm trying to learn about that it's a bit...

    In-car Trip Planner vs EV Trip Planner

    Appreciate the tip! I am anxious to try this. Odd that they didn't make the option more obvious. Edit: I got excited enough to go out and have a driveway moment and try this feature. i followed your directions exactly. When I click at the bottom of the turn log, the same window appears as...

    Model X needed for photo shoot in Florida

    You could also PM him and answer his question instead of making him PM you.

    In-car Trip Planner vs EV Trip Planner

    I am a big fan of the trip planner in the car. Around here where it is very hilly, it accounts for large elevation changes very well. I just did a day trip to Seattle. 180 miles one way, 360 round trip. The only super charger was (exactly) halfway between both cities. I didn't have any...

    For the unlucky ones with a fixed spoiler

    The spoiler has a lot of inferred benefits, but at the end of the day, just like the FWDs, it's more about style. Both of these moving parts are liabilities down the line. My spoiler is fixed, but I'm still stuck with those beautiful, magnificent, stupid, lumbering doors. :/

    Model X air suspension position issue.... Does this look right?

    It doesn't look right, but it is. I just went out to the driveway to confirm my recent delivery looks the exact same. The arm is within 1/2 inch of the tire. Therefore it appears to be perfectly normal, so worry not. It's likely just its park position.

    Took delivery of VIN 24xx P90DL in Fremont on 2016/05/23

    This is a big giant relief. I'm glad to hear your car was built quite a while ago. My X is days away from being released for delivery from the SC (we will see), and as I read your post I was thinking, "wow, they still haven't solved the alignment issues." I am having bad dreams about the...
