    Charging dropping to 9a from 48a

    I had a similar issue a couple times when I used a mobile charger (before installing a wall charger). The first case was the electrician didn’t install a high quality 14-50 receptacle the second time it went away after I cleaned the charger end and car port with a q-tip and alcohol. I got some...

    Fisker Ocean... ?

    Saw my first Fisker Ocean in Coastal NC yesterday. Not a bad looking car, but I’ll keep my MX.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Nice ride. I’ve had mine for a month so far and love it.

    Model X Refresh Towing Example

    A little follow up, after taking the boat out again today I can easily say our MX tows our Yamaha FSH 210 easier than our Ram 1500 hemi did. It pulls the boat out of the launch amazingly well. It almost jerks it out of the water.

    Excessive degradation?

    Sounds about normal. I had a 2022 MYP, drove 100 miles a day and using the same calculation as you I dropped to about 265 miles of range in the first 8-10k miles. It stayed right there for the next 40k miles though. My estimated range was 263-265 when I traded it in for a MX a month ago.

    New MXP Steering Turned All the Way Loud Noise Coming From the Wheels Area

    What did the SC say? My 2023 MX had a similar noise the day after bringing it home. The SC checked it out and told me there were locking nuts not properly torqued from the factory. So far after a week the noise is completely gone.

    Model X Refresh Towing Example

    Update…we decided to get the MX and try it for our tow vehicle. Mind you, we live 2 miles from a real nice ramp, but today we tested it to see if the MX will do the job and it did an amazing job. I’d say equal or better than our 2017 Ram 1500 used to do with our Yamaha FSH 210.

    Brand new MXLR, noise from drivers side front.

    Update: Got an appointment to the service center in Raleigh early, so dropped it off last Thursday. They got us a 2023 MX loaner, so no issues there. They messaged last night that it was ready to pick up. The invoice just stated that suspension bolts were torqued but when we asked they told...

    Prediction: Model X price will be reduced to $78K in January 2024

    Interesting that there is a thought that the MX is only being purchased by those making over $300k jointly…who is buying all Jeep Grand Wagoneers then, since they are $30-40k more than a MX? Heck there are plenty of Chevy Silverados being sold for more than $80k. The average vehicle price is...

    real time range WOW

    I’m actually fairly impressed with our 23 MX. The wh/mi is under 300 so far and is actually looking a little more efficient than our MYP was. I’m not concerned with the “miles left”….I never relied on that for a gas vehicle either, but overall efficiency is pretty amazing for a vehicle of...

    After delivery, how can I review and change the loan payment details?

    Thanks. I got an email from Santander but never heard of them and it doesn’t say much so I deleted it. I’ll look at it again.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Ours has a front rattle since day two. Worse today with warmer weather. Appt with service center tomorrow

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Nice. We are in NC so can’t get Tesla insurance and I was surprised how much more Geico is charging for our MX tax edition vs the MYP we had before the MX
  14. Prodock

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Yes, tax edition in Ultra Red…which with the charge for colors means between the discount, tax incentive and no cost Ultra Red, it’s $12,500 less than it would cost to order the same car today.

    Model X: Average Wh/mile Tracker

    I’ve only had our MXLR for a week but so far it is about 10 percent more efficient than the 2022 MYP we had prior the the X. I am amazed at the efficiency.
  16. Prodock

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    That would be interesting. I got the order update email but then decided to go with an inventory red 2023 when they dropped the price on it.

    Brand new MXLR, noise from drivers side front.

    Thanks. I’m thinking it’s more around the sway bar or something hitting, but I might try that, but it doesn’t seem to be getting worse and I saw an appointment opening for next Thursday, so I moved mine up from February 13th.

    Brand new MXLR, noise from drivers side front.

    They did tell me they would not send mobile service.

    Brand new MXLR, noise from drivers side front.

    Thanks, unfortunately I might need to do that. It is our only vehicle and I’m a little concerned that if they were to pick it up we would be left with no vehicle.

    Brand new MXLR, noise from drivers side front.

    I pulled the front tire and while having someone move it back and forth I could feel the clunk, mostly in the fore link assembly where it is attached to the framework. The bolt didn’t feel loose by hand, but I’m wondering if it isn’t torqued as it should be or if something is binding that I...

    Crackling Sound on 2023 Model X Plaid

    I sent a video to the service center and their response was that “it’s normal brake noise, drive without a foot on the brake and it will go away”. I took it for a good ride and it made the noise even though I was one pedal driving. Definitely seems to be suspension related or something...

    Brand new MXLR, noise from drivers side front.

    I brought home a new 2023 MXLR yesterday and this morning we noticed a creaking noise from the front drivers wheel area. We put in a service request, but they won’t get us in until mid February, so a month wait to get a 2 day old car repaired. The good news is that I crawled under while my...

    Crackling Sound on 2023 Model X Plaid

    Did you ever get a fix for this? The MXLR we picked up new yesterday started to make a similar noise this morning, seems to be front driver side. We put in a service request, but the next appointment is a month out and we have some concern about driving it with this noise on a brand new car.

    Bummer. I was really hoping they’d get this location up before my son moves this summer.

    Tax credit 2024 [The tax credit discussion thread]

    Yep, Tesla just called me and I set up the POS incentive for my pickup Monday. It wasn’t a showstopper, but glad it will be in effect for my transaction

    Model X Glass Roof Sunshade

    I have a MX on order and when we did a demo drive the biggest concern was the high windshield and the sun. Haven’t decided if we want to try a dark tint or a shade, so far these comments are making me think tint would be the better option, but I would prefer to use a shade so it can be removed...

    Model X Refresh Towing Example

    I’m assuming you have launched the same boat with your MX? Considering moving from our MYP to a MX if we could use it to launch our 21 foot Yamaha FSH. We could get rid of the Ram 1500 in our yard that is pretty much only used to launch the boat if a MX could handle launching the boat. We...

    Supercharger - Wade, NC

    I agree. This is a good location. It would currently be an ideal location for me, but beyond that would be a good spot for I 95 as well as 13/295.

    Trading 1.5 month old Model y for Model X

    I was thinking the same thing, but thinking my 1.5 year old MYP is going to get a trade in value to make it possible…but I might check it out anyway. I’d love to have a X.

    Supercharger - Wade, NC

    My wife drove by there last week and said she didn’t see any SC activity yet. Still road construction in the area though.

    Hankook new iON tire, an "EV" tire (not the same as Kinergy GT)

    So far, yes. They aren’t crazy more efficient than the Michelins that the car came with, but definitely more efficient…and a quieter ride.

    Annoying app all of a sudden

    I only had that happen once in a while for the past 35,000 miles…until today. Updated to 2023.12.1.1 last night and after that neither my wife’s nor my iPhone apps want to connect with the car. I can open and close the tailgate, lock and unlock the car, but location doesn’t want to show and...

    mx is too fast for me... dangerously fun?

    I’ve had a MYP for over a year now, and still love driving it every day. I gave up trying to be gentle. Just drive that MX and keep smiling.

    Hankook new iON tire, an "EV" tire (not the same as Kinergy GT)

    After about 500 miles, my avg wh/mi is running in the 270 range with the Hankooks vs about 295 with the Michelins that I had on before. Bonus

    Mobile Charger: Do I need it?

    Superchargers on I-95 (Virginia, NC)

    I’ve been waiting for the SC in Wade NC for about a year now and they keep pushing it back. It will be on the I95 corridor, but I’m looking for it as I cross 95 on NC 13 there probably once a month.

    Hankook new iON tire, an "EV" tire (not the same as Kinergy GT)

    Just put the Hankook Ion Evo tires on my 22 MYP with 32k miles. Only been 100 miles so far but they are very quiet and actually efficiency seemed a little better than my old Michelin tires. Hopefully they hold up well, because so far I am impressed.

    Supercharger - Wade, NC

    I drive by there at least every month as well. Really looking forward to this location, but the date keeps getting pushed out farther

    Is it normal for an 80% charge to show 228 miles with MYP?

    My 2022 MYP shows about 220 miles range at 80 percent charge. It’s been like that for about the last 20k miles (it has about 32k miles now). Mostly charge at home at 6-7 kwh with maybe once a month at a supercharger. I generally just use the percent charge and don’t worry about the miles…and...

    Range Anxiety Planning for All Electric Household

    How remote are you talking? When we visit upper Michigan we have to plan and we use a mobile charger where we are staying. Trips to our sons house 180 miles away in rural NC have two different superchargers we drive by depending on the route. We also use plug in to the 110 at his house if...

    Mobile Charger: Do I need it?

    I echo dhrivnak’s statement. I have a mobile charger hooked up the a 14-50 for daily charging and keep a second mobile charger in the car. I’ve used it at my son’s house which is a bit remote so getting charged back to 80 percent over the weekend with the 110v plug is a big help. I’ve also...

    Hankook new iON tire, an "EV" tire (not the same as Kinergy GT)

    I’m at 31k on my AS4s and they are pretty much done. I’m interested in the Hankooks as well, but having trouble finding much information. I like the AS4s but it sounds like the Hankooks might last a little longer. I’m not worried about performance. I drive spirited but don’t need racing...

    MYP - avg. tread miles with 21" michelin pilot sport all season

    Premature Tire Wear

    Thanks. I have a 22 MYP with 29k miles and need to get my NC inspection in the next month. The Michelins still look OK to me, so hoping they don’t try to give me trouble at the inspection.

    Upgrade to Model Y or not?

    I have a 2022 MYP and love it. Drove a M3P and really enjoyed driving it but the difference in driving excitement didn’t outweigh the sheer usability of the MYP. We have went on trips with a huge load of stuff and suitcases and had room to spare…where the 3 would’ve been a squeeze at best...
