    AWD/Performance Re-Invites 5/31

    I'm a first-day reservation holder in California, been waiting for an interior color other than black. I just received a re-invitation to configure with AWD and Performance options available. Unfortunately for me, while white interiors are also available, it's only as a performance-exclusive...

    White Seats Tracking

    I've been invited to configure, but we are delaying until white/light colored seats are available for Model 3. If you notice that they show up on the configurator, please post here, for those of us who are deferring for this option.

    Speculation: Time to Delivery for Model 3 will be short, once deliveries begin

    My delivery estimator still says Nov 17-Jan 18, which seems fast, given that they haven't even opened the design studio yet. How can they make this work? My guess is that once they open the design studio, initial delivery dates will be not much more than a week. First Production Model 3...

    No AM Radio on 3 (Like the X)

    The Electrek.co spec sheet lists FM and Internet radio, but no AM radio. This has been the case on the X for a while, but I wonder how that will impact interest by the general public.

    Car Seat triggers seat belt warning (8.0 changes)

    Anyone know how to let the car know that the weight in a middle row seat is actually a car seat? My X has always detected the weight there and wanted the seat belt buckled (this car seat is connected via LATCH), but in 8.0, it now displays the non-buckled seat belt on the left display all the...

    How much charge to get from Fresno SC to Lodgepole, Sequoia

    I'm planning a trip to Sequoia in my X75D. When leaving the Fresno SC, how many miles of charge would you recommend to get to lodgepole? EVtripplanner says I can make it with about 120 miles of Rated Range. I'll expect I'll charge more, but how much more would you recommend?

    Non-PUP Front Door Opening

    Without PUP, the driver's door does not auto-present when you approach the car. Is there any way to cause the door to present without pushing the driver's side door handle? Does a double-press of the key-fob center cause door opening, or does that just unlock the door(s)?

    Design Studio now say July Delivery for all models

    As of a few days ago, you could still order a 90D and get it June. Not any more.

    Removing Middle Seat from 7-seat Configuration

    Anyone with a 7-seat model pulled up the flooring material to see what it would take to remove the middle seat? Presumably there are wiring harnesses for the forward and back motion, but are there other things as well?

    First Delivery without the Premium Package

    Has anyone received delivery of a vehicle without the premium package? If not, when it happens, please post here! We have lots of questions about how that configuration will work, particularly WRT the front doors.

    Why only 37 miles of additional range for 20kWh of capacity?

    Why does the X70D (3.14 Mi/kWh) get so much more range per kW than the X90D (2.85 Mi/kWh)? Is it the reduced weight of the battery pack, different pack utilization, or something else?

    Headliners: Color of the Light option, and why Black only with Ultra White Seats?

    The configurator is a bit confusing on the Light Headliner option. The image shows an off-white color for the light headliner, but the swatch is closer to a light tan. Does anyone know what color it actually is? Also, why can you not configure the Light Headliner with the Ultra White Seats...

    Model X Mule Tracking

    Is anyone interested in tracking the Mule Sightings by License Plate number? With some careful examination, we should be able to get a rough count of the total number of mules on the road. Each one has a unique license plate. 63277 is the Tesla Manufactuer ID, but the small vertically...

    How many non-Performance Model X will Tesla deliver in 2015?

    We know Tesla is committed to beginning deliveries in Q3 2015. However, in the past, they have delivered cars in an order driven by option availability. Given that they clearly prioritize the higher-profit margin Performance models whenever possible, how many non-P Model Xs do you think will...

    Model X Alpha Prototype is Complete!

    From Tesla's SEC 10-Q Quarterly Statement, posted today <http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1318605/000119312514403635/d812482d10q.htm>: It's been done for over a month and we still don't have any spy shots! I expect that it hasn't left the factory or design center. Hopefully we'll get...

    What EV would you drive til Gen 3 is released?

    If you were looking to acquire an EV in the next few months to drive until Gen 3 is released, what vehicle would you select? Would you buy a car and risk the high depreciation, or string a few leases together?

    Tesla resumes Drive Event

    I got this invitation today (links removed). My reservation is for the Model X, and I've already driven the S once, but if it was in Santa Barbara rather than San Luis, I'd probably do it again. Interesting to see they're generating demand outside areas with stores...

    Rear Seat footwell depth

    Are the footwells in the Model S back seats less deep than other cars? When riding in the back of my test drive model earlier, it seemed like my feet were higher up in the MS than in most other cars. Is that the battery-pack creating a thicker base-plate, or was I just dreaming it?
