Let me google that for you

With rumors of the Model X going ahead - anyone know when we can put in for a Model S with AWD order? Been holding off for this...

Two thoughts: 1. It has been done before quite a bit Beyond Ssssly's model, there is teslacost.com which has both an accounting and cash flow model already. I did a version of the teslacost model which is with what i thought were better assumptions. You can take a look here for that...

Yeah, that cut off on the trunk just keeps bothering me. Plus, since it is unlikely that you will be able to use a roof rack given the falcon doors (which are cool but completely not nearly practica), I would like to maximize my storage space...

Ah the perennial Honda Odyssey - weird design for weirdness sake We own a Town and Country - which is a box, but an innoffensive one. I'd rather have the space personally and just have the rear be similar to maybe the Audi Q5?

Does anyone else hate the sloped back of the Model X? It just seems like lost space and an attempt to make it more "sporty" which ends up coming off as a slightly less gaudy BMW X6? I'd rather have the rear just be straighter with more room...

How much do the T Sportline's weigh?

If I am not in a rush and we are talking a couple of months, why not?

Frankly I expect that the Model 3 will have everything the current Tesla S has right now in some form or the other. The S will undoubtedly move on to have more features.

I figure it is 3 months really, so I am willing to wait that long. Frankly may wait for AWD pricing to appear.

This is a 100K luxury car, not a wrench monkey POS. I know very little about the mechanics of cars and have no desire to do so. I agree with OP - the wheel alignment problem is someone's fault and not the drivers. Whether it is the shop that did the change or Tesla's (and I believe it was...

I agree with OP and have decided to hold off as well. Having a 2015 will help resale because many people are stuck on the old way of doing things. The tech upgrades are continuous, but it is know they are working on the front seats and potentially a LWB version. And there are so many other...

So is the alignment thing solved yet? I keep seeing comments that it is a disaster and of tons of expense in additional tire wear.

I could see a cargo van / city delivery truck doing well. Fleet vehicles could see huge savings. I would launch them under a different sub-brand for industrial vehicles (I like Watt after James Watt personally). But I don't expect a small pick-up truck - nobody is really interested in them given...

Not taking financing at under 2% is penny wise - pound foolish. They are practically giving you money to do it. If you are concerned about going in debt - take all that cash and put it away somewhere and arbitrage the difference in interest rates secure in the knowledge you could pay off the...
