i wear jeans a lot, but i do not wear unwashed or raw denim.

My perforated white seats are doing quite good. No issues or color transference so far. 20k miles and 1 infant. Never used anything other than damp cloth to clean stuff up. I do keep a Mr. Clean around just in case.

oh, that is unfortunate! With Springfield as an option, I, too, try and avoid that this SpC until the construction is complete, not to mention, the Springfield location is so much better!

Each time I visit the Joplin SpC I think of making this post, and I forget. So here it is: PLEASE BEWARE OF NAILS/SCREWS NEAR THIS SpC. I have personally seen (and disposed off) 5 screws/nails/bolts which can easily pierce a tire. I try and scan for these while charging and dispose them in the...

Just placed an order for the Model X full applique (chrome).

@artsci : maybe you can answer this for me. how difficult is it to remove the TESLA letters from the stock applique? i'm debating between buying the fully installed vs the letters only.

good to hear! so, about the appliques, how difficult is it to remove the TESLA letters from the stock applique? i'm debating between buying the fully installed vs the letters only. also, any update on the front and rear T's for the X?

Wow. That is more important than any applique. Take care of your son, the orders can wait. Wishing your son a speedy recovery!

so, http://www.evappliques.com/ is down. but EV Appliques works.

what is the EV charger tax credit? and can it be applied for (same year as the car, or the year I purchased the EV charger -- which, in my case, was the year following the EV purchase year)?

@WATTS-UP : how is the progress on this?

its there. choose the 90D then it shows you option to upgrade to 100D.

yes

mine had a similar issue. SC fixed it, said the lines were twisted and stopping the flow.

any update?

If I wanted the whole set, that is, the front T, rear T and the TESLA applique, then should I wait till all are available or just order each as it becomes available?

drove by on late monday night. was dark and i couldn't find any sign of the superchargers.

I'll be posting thru on Monday. Will take photos of its not open by then

Charged up on the way to Chicago.

Our X hit the 10k mark and yesterday I tried to do a 100% charge to help us make the Rolla, MO to home 243 mile journey. It said it was fully charged at 248 miles. We've done 100% charges before and they used to be 255-257 mile range, but that was a while ago and we haven't had to charge it to...

Do not plug or unplug any charger into the car while it is doing a SW Update. Weekend before last, I was about to return from KC and decided to top off the X for the final stretch home at one of the KCPL's chademo chargers. There was a Leaf charging, so while I was waiting, I decided to do the...

*fingers crossed for activation by Friday*

Pete, will you be making the leather versions? I'd prefer those over silicone.

thanks for the update. this weekend might be driving via KC, it appears.

any update on this? have a trip TUL->STL coming up this weekend.

i had to wash my car twice on a road trip of around 3k miles due to the large number of bugs which decided they wanted to end their life on the X's bumper. both times i took it thru the rotating brush car washes, put the spoiler in extended mode and once the track took hold of the wheel, turned...

which of these steps are completed and which are pending?

no idea. i will know when they charge my account. their website has no customer portal and they have no mobile app.

update: I used this charger over the weekend. had signed up for evgo account and called in to start charging (my evgo card arrived yesterday). the charger also has a slot for credit cards.

I am glad I went with Lloyds. I didn't like the look in the photos, but it looks very good in person. And the fit is great. A slight bulge is visible where the leather sides of the rear seats are, but I will cut a small slice off, and that should fix the issue.

strange. maybe they're doing the wiring now?

i think its ceremonial groundbreaking. they're going to build a bunch of things there, so it might be a while.

do you have to sign up for evgo's card to be able to use this?

excellent! anything specific related to time, other than fall 2016?

mine should be arriving tomorrow. will install and report on fit. i ordered mine from eveverything, and not carid. wonder if that makes any difference... worst case, you could cut the excess yourself.

I ended up placing an order for a set. have a long trip coming up in a couple of weeks and will need these to keep the luggage from ruining the carpet. would've waited for WT or others, but it appears they will not be ready. will need something to cover the sides and the seat backs, now.

did 1 supercharge to 100% and 2 to 95%, down to 232 now, from 239 before the trip. have a longer trip coming up later this month. lets see how much that will change things.

I got the Lloyd email as well. But my issue with them is that they don't cover the sides of the rear space (3rd row folded down). I will wait for weathertech or husky to make rubberized mats.

2 Supercharges to 100% and other (read ChaDeMo and J1772 etc) charging later, my X is reporting 232 mi at 90%. I did get 260 mi at superchargers with 100% charging enabled for trips.

Kansas seems to have some dubious language. Ugh. I hope I'm covered... went with $50 glass deductible $500 otherwise with Progressive. Best glass coverage I could find. Only a few others did glass separate from comprehensive/collision.

I don't see one of those... I'll check again in the morning. If not, KC Service Center will need to be visited for a set. Thanks for the info, now I know what I'm looking for.

I rec'd the paperwork from Tesla today, so got my license plates. How do I install them? I don't see a frame on the X, only the embossed X in the sheet metal of the liftgate and 4 plastic covers for what I assume are holes for screws... what am I missing?

So, today, 90% has dropped to 233. Have a trip coming up this weekend. Will update once I return.

I do have a chademo adapter, and if the Springfield MO charger is functional at that point, it will certainly save me a lot of time. beyond that it's all slow charging till Southaven Nissan which seems to have chademo. superchargers from OKC -> Memphis along I40 would be quite welcome.

Thanks for the info. I'd be charging to 100% at each stop, right? Would it be better to make more frequent, but shorter stops? Like, stopping at Joplin, Springfield, St Michaels Nursery and Jonesboro. It appears that for supercharger travel, this is the recommended solution, to make shorter...

mine is 239 (the highest i've seen yet) with under 300 miles on it. but it slowly drops its charge while sitting in the garage. been sitting for 2 days and is at 228 right now, but it seems it recharges back to 90% since I've seen 234, 237 etc at different times.

Delayed update: Car delivered on 21st May. Was produced on 4/16. Spent 1 week in SC for detailing etc and waiting for a carrier to ship it to me. Was delivered in a covered carrier, as I had requested. Other than a small misalignment of the drivers side door and falconwing door's top parts...

Having picked up a Model X 90D, I was wondering if this trip is possible. I am planning to travel later this year from Independence, KS to Southaven, MS. Is this doable? Or will I have to use an ICE vehicle?
