After 2k miles, I think my driving patterns have stabilized enough to report in: X90D with 20" tires - 303 Wh/Mi with most of my driving in typical SoCal commuter traffic. That's 20 points worse than my Model S average.

Yinn has a great summary. My even shorter version is: Model S - More fun to drive; better at carrying stuff - get this if the car will be used primarily for moving YOU Model X - More comfortable to drive; better at carrying people - get this if the car will be used for moving OTHERS...

I can report that the installation of Photosync 75 mitigated most of my "ghosting" issue. My ghosting was not too bad, I installed the tint mostly for heat rejection but this was a nice side-effect.

I don't think it's your imagination. I just had my windshield tinted after a few sunny days in (usually sunny) SoCal, where I was finding myself uncomfortably warm in the front seats, relative to my passengers. Since the tinting was installed (photosync 75) the difference is notable...

Thanks for sharing. Quality seems very reasonable at this price-point (especially considering the self-install). How is the nighttime video?

These look a lot like the Topfit product that Teslafans sells on Ebay and (occasionally) on Amazon. I've been eyeing them myself but hadn't seen enough reviews to take the plunge myself. They look easier to clean than the ToughPro mats, but my main concern has been about fit. Hmm.

Thanks for sharing, this is very helpful. I was on the fence on window tinting since there seems to already to be some on the Model X, but I think I'm going to go ahead and do it ahead of summer.

I think this is right. The things that distinguish the two are largely "Driving Dynamics" and "Interior/Exterior", I think those might want to stay vehicle-specific but the rest seem common to both.

TL;DR: Ordered on October 14th (2nd time around, wanted to wait for AP2) Confirmed on October 21st Modified Order and received VIN on October 22nd (to add new AP2 features at $2k premium) Delivery Date sent on December 12th (had to modify this a few times because of trade-in and financing...

Been just a few days (12/23) since I took delivery on an AP2 Model X, and the Falcon Wing Doors have performed flawlessly so far.

It's been awhile, but I used Green Electric Solutions out of OC/SD. Total cost was around $600, but it included a panel re-org and partial upgrade.

Thanks, everyone, for their feedback.

Slightly Off-Topic, my apologies. I'm in the process of selling my gently used California-located Model S to a family member who lives in Washington State (they are getting a great deal). More importantly - can anyone recommend a car transport company that has some familiarity with Tesla and...

Actually, on early VINs (such as my own), the thermometer was in the dash. Supposedly, the new (current) location provides a more accurate reading.

Interesting you mention these, are there "fresh air inlets" in the rear compartment somewhere? If so, I'm not sure my car has them (and you have a VIN lower than mine).
