    Front license plate holder

    Plenty of room for the air to go around it. It works great on my car for last 3 years. Problem with other solutions that I see especially ones which hang off the grill is if something bumps into it, your grille will break.

    It didn't affect the battery cooling on my Model 3 performance for last 3 years and works and looks great.

    Supercharger - Burns, OR (or Hines, OR)

    Yes, didn't realize it has been discussed already. My mistake. I was in the process of removing post. You beat me to it.

    News for Model X owners with the dreaded shudder

    In my case it showed up around 7k and I have automatic lowering from standard at 55 mph. It has become really worse since then. If you set it to low all the time, shudder will show up after 10k or so depending upon how hard you accelerate. Shudder is pronounced when you kind of turn and...

    News for Model X owners with the dreaded shudder

    Sorry to say, TSB won't last for long. Shudder will come back. It is a design issue and can be fixed only if drive units move with the suspension height adjustment so that the drive shaft and drive unit all in same horizontal plane

    News for Model X owners with the dreaded shudder

    I was told by service center (s) including Fremont Service center that I have the latest service bulletin items installed and hence won't change parts again even though the problem (shudder) persists even in low setting. This is unacceptable.

    News for Model X owners with the dreaded shudder

    Shudder is caused because drive unit is not in the same horizontal plane as the wheel axle. In very low, they are aligned but in other ride heights they are not.

    Supercharger - Hillsboro, OR

    I am sure construction will start pretty soon similar to sequence of events that happened in Salem before actual construction started.

    Acceleration Shudder

    That is total BS. There is a fix for Shudder now and seems to work better. Again time will tell. So far so good. They did fix my shudder issue on my Model X in the same service center (Portland) which denied goodwill service for rattle in my Model 3. There is no way anyone can get to Executive...

    Acceleration Shudder

    No more goodwill service from Tesla. Very disappointed with the service. No more goodwill from Tesla. They are not the same company it used to be as far as Service goes. I had a bad rattle in the dash on the passenger side in Model 3 almost 6 months ago and they wouldn't do it as goodwill even...

    Tire selection for Model X

    I didn't see anything that is out of the normal - around 350Wh/mi at 65mph

    Tire selection for Model X

    I replaced my Sept 2017 100D Model X with Yokohama Geolandar X-CV tires. The ride is quieter and good value for the money I paid at discount tires.

    Fix-it Ticket : No Front Plate

    Other alternatives cost insane for the problem it solves - to have a front license plate mount.
