I can't imagine much utility for a towing with an EV. Using as an accessory hitch yes, but 95% of the time if you are towing something with wheels its going to be for a longer distance trip. Even on the model x with a large battery it seems like a not to typical scenario. Also can't imagine...

I also prefer solid, it would have also meant the body could have been strong enough to support a hatch design. Also its very unclear if there can be a realistic roof rack option they way its designed now.

Personally I think it will suck if not included with price and/or they don't offer a per charge fee. I mean if I plan to use it mostly around home 95% of the time, it would still be nice to use a super charger on a road trip without renting a car if I didn't want to pony up the thousand dollar...

keep in mind the $2500 CA credit recently changed too, now depends on your income

Tend to agree, once you go hatch you won't go back. I had 3 sedans as my first cars and since then I've had 5 wagons/hatchs (and that was before kids)

8' surfboard inside a Mazda6 8' board inside newer Sentra That said, a 7' board is an odd duck, not really a more popular short board or a long board, more like some kind of hybrid

Its going to get hella hot in that car during the summer with all that glass on top!

Just go my email now, almost 30 hours since I reserved in person

I only ever buy base models of any car. I hope the $35K trim doesn't go the way of the cheaper trims of the S which are constantly being eliminated

I made two orders using two different emails around 10:15am yesterday at the Fremont, CA location. Never got confirmation of either but I did create a mytesla account with the same email and the reservation number shows up there.

Agree the front is ugly, I like the s but the x front is very ugly and plain, I know it doesn't need one but a simulated grill type area like the S looks much better, especially for those of us in states that require a front plate

"What's Next? Your Model 3 was reserved on 3/31/2016. You'll be invited to configure based on the date of your reservation." Interesting, the implication is it just matters what day you reserved and not the time?

Still no email for me, ordered around 10:15 this AM. I created an account on tesla with same email and nothing shows up there either.

Let's be honest, most people that live in Palo Alto that want a Tesla already have one, except for maybe some of the students :P
