    Is it really super dangerous to go over the 120pound weight limit of the stock tow hitch? I’m about 30-50 pounds over.

    So…. Back to the original question for my 2022 model x plaid with 20 inch wheels. Is over loading the 120 pound limit of the stock hitch with my e-bikes and rack by 40 pounds over the 120 pound limit still relatively safe. I’m leaning towards yes and I see so many people doing this.

    Is it really super dangerous to go over the 120pound weight limit of the stock tow hitch? I’m about 30-50 pounds over.

    i understand the warrant issue but if i do a search it seems like that are many many people that have used the oem tow hitch to mount 2 eikes or a cargo box and high exceeded the 120 pounds weight limit by about 30-80 pounds and how done this for a long time with out issue. If you think about...

    Is it really super dangerous to go over the 120pound weight limit of the stock tow hitch? I’m about 30-50 pounds over.

    It’s kind of crazy how the oem tow hitch is only rated to 120 pounds for things like bike racks and cargo hitch boxes. I have seen some people say they have been fine going over this limit. I just starts making small trips with 2 e-bikes and I do feel a little nervous. I always take the...

    Testa Model X - p90(82K miles) vs 100D(92k Miles)

    since you don't care about performance just get the 100d. The 100kwh batteries are known to be very reliable not so much for the 90kwh battery. Also the performance models are knows to be not as reliable vs the non performance because of some coolant leaking issue found on their larger size...

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    Of course a model x plaid is not as fast as a model s plaid. The s plaid is a low 9 second 150mph+ car Where as the model x plaid is a high 9 second 140mph+ 1/4 miles car. But The model x plaid still should pull much harder than any normal stock gas super car.

    I was one of the last few people that got 2 key fobs with my 2022 model x plaid that I picked up in may of 2022. I have never used them at all. Really is no purpose with the phone key. I do keep one key card in my wallet only for valets.
