My second to last Model X share before permanently retiring from the car demo business. Tesla Model X - Pros Cons - Driving Review - Everyday Driver - YouTube I think they covered things pretty well. Nice guys and fun to work with them on their car review. The last share happened on...

Maybe...........

Light plug receptacle and safety chain attachment loops are located under that cover plate also. The tow receiver is pretty handy. Here is an electric car hauling a Pedego electric bike.

I have to admit it is a little strange to look at deliveries in the tracker and see production orders, placed the same week I received my final invoice, now being delivered. Coming up on three months since final payment was invoiced and paid. Just deleted the rest of my comment. You can...

For me the next gen S seats and the perforated seats on the X solved the comfort issues completly. Both are very comfortable on road trips. We recently did an 800 mile + one day round trip in the X. The trip included three hours in LA rush hour traffic to go 30 miles. That delay made it a...

Go big or go home. There is some fairness in this world that you can drive a clean muscle car with an insignificant energy penalty. In the combustion engine world this would be a hard call. Do I want to feed a giant air breathing high displacement engine so once in a while I can burn even...

Great idea. Documenting the moment your life went from cars, tires and machines to swing sets, strollers and Disneyland. The kids will get a lot more mileage than the tires. But they will be the best miles you ever lived thru.

I wonder if Tesla guessed wrong on demand for 70's. Suddenly there are lots of new 70's on the CPO site all pretty close in VIN number range.

I love the clean simple and functional interior of the Model S and now the X. I can't stand to sit in the dodaded and over trimmed supposed luxury cars. Lots of useless buttons and bells. Give me clean simple function. It is so serene to road trip in a Tesla. My first reaction to my first...

I think maybe an assumption that moving the seats might wear out the little 12 volt. Not an issue. When the car is powered up the vehicle draws 12 volt power from a DC TO DC converter powered by the main battery. You could probably get 200000 miles of seat travel on a single charge. - - -...

And I am very confidant you are doing it much better than I can. I always enjoy your comments and perspective on performance driving. I have a neighbor that has raced the Viper comp coupes for many years. After he finished mocking and ridiculing my silly electric car I asked him if he would...

Air compressor. Cooling fans. Isn't it nice to be able to hear the cars systems.

It depends on what you are looking for. The P85D can win drag races while being driven by a 16 year old putting on makeup. Don't get me wrong I enjoy the incredible integration of all the various technology and how it all works together to make the car an incredible machine. The first time...

Most seats specify that when the weight of the child and the child seat combined exceeds 65 lbs the anchor points should no longer be used. Seat belt attachment is less convienient to properly install but provides a much stronger attachment. Makes sense when you think about the weight of adults...

The first half of the video is about fool cells. Interesting combination.

Take what you read here with a grain of salt. Model X VIN Sig 265 is my 4th Tesla. My only concern is when can I get Sig VIN 732 (probably early March). We have driven our first X 5,000 miles in less than two months. I finally got around to taking it in today to get a few minor items...

Bobbykansara, I may be complaining about a lack of new delivery information flow but at the same time I am not worried that I won't eventually receive an excellent car. This is will be my fifth Tesla purchase and we are still driving the first purchase. I have never experienced a defect or...

An iPhone 6s in the Tesla leather wallet case slides in perfectly.

Some early P85Ds shipped with second row next gen seats. The early model P85D second row next gen seats had side bolsters and prevented the seats from folding completly flat. I think Tesla went back to a flatter second row because of the fold flat complaints. My 69xxx VIN shipped with second...

I was driving a BMW 760i V12 when I ordered our first Model S (2012). I special ordered the BMW to get the shorter Model after finding the 750Li to be like driving a Limo. The V12 on the short wheelbase was like driving a sports car with lazy boy chairs. I put 120,000 miles on the car and...

That's wierd. We have that same system.

Fly safe. Enjoy. Excellent photos.

My summary of the last few pages of comments: I don't see a single self entitled comment among this group that are such fanatics they ordered a new model Tesla sight unseen years ago and also posted large deposits knowing they would be buying all the early production headaches. No one is...

Nothing like good clean fun. I would say you smoked them but the term is now out of date.

This is what I would consider hideous. This is is sleek. Maybe it is just personal preference. The current design trend to create ever more aggressive and outlandish front grills has morphed into cartoonish. I much prefer a clean sleek look rather than an angry kitchen appliance look.

I have found I can rest the back of my right hand on my right leg with my thumb resting on/over the wheel. Easy to lightly feel the steering and also easy to simply close my fingers around the wheel if conditions require me to take control. I love the auto steer system and use it most of the...

We drive our Model S cars with the shade screens in the rear window. So maybe I am just used to a tinted or shaded back window. I have not noticed it to be a problem. Living in Arizona we tend to tint everything as dark as the laws allow. It always seems a little strange to me when I rent...

Based on the status posted on MyTesla "order"is where I currently sit in the new order process timeline. My order status has been displayed as "order confirmed" for months. Now after the rework or the web site I am just "order". It is just a little bizarre to go thru the entire process and...

It would make sense for the spoiler to retract when tow mode is selected. Until that happens the only solution for washes that push the car thru would be to set tow mode then lock the car as it enters the wash. Then unlock once it is past the brushes or near the end. I would also turn off...

I normally set the suspension on the S and the X to high whenever curbs or parking bumpers are near. Just one way to avoid that stomach churning grinding sound as you eat a concrete parking bumper.

Unless you are really bothered by the sun I would try the sun shade first. On our Model S Pano roofs the Sun Shade is all that is needed. In my case I could not wait for the sun shade. My wife does not care one bit about the upper view being diminished but really likes the darker tint on...

I am so excited. My delivery status went from "order confirmed" to "ordered". Is that progress ? Ironic since it has had a VIN for months and has been fully paid for since Dec 12. But at least I made it to dot number two on the order process time line.

Good for you. Keep pounding on them. Pure stupidity deserves all the pain you can inflict.

Anyone can get an X. A Tesla watch band....That is special. Keep that woman.

I will let you know when you are last. For now you still have company.

Once you experience the pure joy of traveling in a Tesla you are going to want to travel more. For local driving a 70 more than meets most people's daily needs. For distance travel the 90 is a better choice. I fly less and drive more just because the drive is so pleasant. Depending on your...

Honey does this X make my butt look bigger. Your comment reminds me of the encounter between a fighter pilot and an air refueling tanker. The fighter radios the tanker and says; bet you can't do this, then performs a few aerobatic maneuvers. The tanker pilot radios back; bet you can't do...

I do miss the falcon closing beep. Not sure why they did not include it in the latest update. My grandson and even my little dog had been programmed to stay clear of everything when they heard the beep. Now I have to shout, watch out the door is going to close. Give me the beep back. I...

Color comparison for those that may be interested. My wife's new X next to the Classic S it will replace. I had just picked the X up from tint and detail and we both ended up at the same place. Bright sun so I took a couple of shots to compare the colors. The X has Arizona max legal 35%...

White and Sig Red on an auto hauler parked by the Scottsdale SC. I looked out and saw a Sig Red on 20 inch wheels and my heart soared thinking that my long lost Sig Red X had found its way to Arizona, only to have my hopes crushed when I saw white seats. Not mine. I was told both Model X were...

I am probably considered a complete fanboi by many of the residents of Teslaland and even I have become baffled by the complete lack of information. I dont mind problems, I don't mind delays, I don't even mind getting an email to pay and paying two months ago. But the absolute lack of any...

One replaces my wife's 3 year old red classic Model S and the other is for my daughter and worlds best grandson. When I was finalizing the orders the conversation was; It's OK mom you can have the red. No you can have the red. I am fine if you have the red I think you want the red This went...

I am thinking about filling out a missing VIN report and seeing if I can get the VIN printed on milk boxes.

All in how you look at it. You are buying more metal rim and less rubber tire. And with less rubber the rubber has to be better to make up for the fact there is less of it. - - - Updated - - - I ordered 20's for the tow rating, ride and lower noise. My car delivered with two other cars on...

I don't think it is alone....... But it may be forgotten.

At least reading these posts I don't feel so alone and abandoned. I was starting to wonder if my car fell off a truck somewhere and no one noticed. Paid in full December 12th. Coming up on sixty days with zero accurate information.

And/Or a double push on the falcon door button.

Robbie Williams at Protective Film Solutions, located in Scottsdale AZ, installed the tint. They also installed X-pel on the hood, bumper, headlights and rear view mirrors. This was their first Model X tint project so they had to create a pattern for the upper windshield. They can share the...

The doors are actually safer for cyclists. Instead of a slab of door swinging out directly into the bikes path the Falcons slither up and stop high. I regularly park on a busy bike rider street next to the ocean and the door when fully open is well above the helmet of cyclists. It would take a...
