Yes, she's Supercharging there now :)

Yikes, my wife is on her way to the Bay Area right now and reports that the Kettleman City Supercharger is temporarily closed. Does anyone know why? Is that possibly why the Tejon Ranch Supercharger is so backed up in that video clip?

Just found out they just reinstalled the firmware a couple of times...and didn't charge me (thankfully). Off to pick her up.

My blinkers may have worked, but they didn't make a sound. I dropped her off for service this morning, but they just notified me they were able to get the touchscreen working without replacing the MCU/eMMC. And I can't check the invoice in the app because it sends me to a broken page, so I...

Whelp, I'm guessing I'm officially on the MCU failure group this time for sure. After what seemed like a success with the full software reinstall back in early September (when I initially had requested MCU replacement), I now have not had a touchscreen display for five days. Additionally, I...

How many of you were able to get the MCU replacement (not the upgrade) while still within your warranty? My original warranty on my 2016 MX 90D is ending in less than two weeks, but my MCU hasn't failed yet either. Tesla preemptively ordered a MCU1 replacement during a mobile service when my X...

I'm not 100% sure my recent audio issues are MCU related, but I have been having intermittent issues with my 2016 Model X not having any audio (not just music, but turn signal clicks, proximity sensor chimes, door acknowledgements, autopilot indications, navigation, etc). I mentioned this to...

My wife picked up her 3 on Saturday...and we stopped by SpaceX on our way home from the Marina del Rey Delivery Center

We took delivery of my wife's Model 3 over the weekend and fortunately received our outdoor cover just a couple days before. Covercraft's website still does not list their custom fit Weathershield HP as being an option for Model 3, but ,rest assured, you can call them directly to purchase one...

@Troy, this is my first time adding an entry to the spreadsheet...just submitted it, thanks.

Got my invite in December (was a day one reservation), but didn't configure and place my order until April 6 (at which time there was a 3 to 6 week estimate). I was originally waiting for more configuration options to become available (heck, I was originally hoping to get the "cheap" shorter...

Please post follow-up pics and videos with the rescued kitten!

Sounds like you did the same routine, but one week after us. We were there on Sunday, March 19th...and we arrived just after 8p. My X would have still been there if you arrived at 8:20p on the 19th since we would have still been eating at Primo's.

Well, I made the trip and stopped in both Mojave and Lone Pine in both directions (though I definitely could have avoided Lone Pine on the way back if we didn't try to stop and eat at that new BBQ place...which was closed). Traveling later than usual was great for traffic and Supercharging...

Thanks for the tips. I would have planned to try that Mexican place in Mojave (since it is right next to the Superchargers), but Yelp lists it as being closed on Sundays. I scoped out the Lone Pine Supercharger last season (before I got my X...that's my Honda Pilot on the right edge of this...

I'm thinking about doing the trip from L.A. to Mammoth (staying at the Westin) on Sunday evening...what are the chances I can make it to the mountain in one stop with a 90D Model X (or should I even bother trying since two shorter stops are probably better than one long one). Have you been...

Never mind, the accessory ports definitely go off when I lock the car. I think I figured out what I was seeing...that my dash cam would get turned on every time I approached to check either because I had the fob in my pocket (which was the case at the office), the car was charging (appears that...

My guess is, for us non PUP owners, the presenting door feature is purely limited by software as the doors themselves obviously have all the hardware to open (within the same sensed limits) via the center console (or, for dramatic effect, synchronized to music during the Christmas light show)...

On my 90D (mid-September delivery), 90% is usually 233, but have seen it as high as 235 and as low as 230. 100% has been as high as 260 and as low as 254.

AFAIK, you shouldn't use anything but the crazy expensive Trak 4x4 snow chains on Teslas because of their unique suspension design...any chain that wraps around the back of the tire can damage the suspension. The ones for Model X are $500...which has caused me to think twice about taking her to...

Yeah, I figured they served a purpose other than adding visual beats to a pretty light show.

The more I watch the Easter Egg on the Model X's with PUP makes me regret not getting it. Seems stupid, right? But there are actually quite a few differences in the show. Not only am I missing the fog lights, but I've also noticed lights within the headlamps that aren't present...so there are...

It is my understanding that "Towing Mode" is only for towing (the wording in the settings description for the option suggests you should never enable this mode UNLESS you are towing something). Can somone verify if the 12V and USB accessory ports still automatically turn off with AP1 Model Xs...

I didn't drive anywhere over the weekend, so I didn't even check if I had it until after I got the update.

Definitely sad to confirm that it is gone...hopefully it will be back next year. For those who didn't get to play the light show, this refers to what gets displayed on the center console when the show was over:

I received and installed the 2.52.22 update this morning in my AP1 X. modelxmas is gone :(, undivided road speed limit restriction is back to +5 mph :), autopilot seems slightly less drunk ;), and the equalizer is finally remember my settings :D

Haven't received any notifications on the app

I think an opaque wrap sounds like a pretty good solution...how much does it typically cost to do the seat backs (since I have the 6 seat configuration, I'd need to do 4). I'm still debating whether I should do the whole car with a clear wrap or not...I remember having a Venture Shield clear...

I can understand wanting to have the rear camera on since the view through the rear mirror is somewhat restricted in the X, especially when the third row seats are up...and I too tend to put my rear view in the top window when I have it on (so I understand why some would prefer to have it...

A colleague who ordered his X in late November took delivery just under a month later...which seems really fast (it took three months for mine). That said, he has since brought his X to a Service Center to address a number of issues that appear to have resulted from rushed production. I am not...

Did you get an extra J1772 adapter? I thought one is included in the standard mobile charging cable kit that comes with the car (along with the adapters for NEMA 5-15 and 14-50). At least, I had one...would have been SOL if I didn't have a J1772 adapter with me on my recent road trip. I...

That's interesting to hear. I actually have allergies to cats, dogs, and a number of other things. I ended up going through shots when I was a kid so I could keep kittens my mom and I adopted back then. The shots and constantly being around cats definitely desensitized me to the allergy, but I...

Do you have a higher resolution version of your profile pic? Your Siberian Forest kitties look beautiful...like long-haired Lynx point Meezers. We have a Lynx and Seal point Meezer-mix, but I'm not sure I want their fur getting all over my X (their kennel cab fits nicely between the middle row...

I wish I had noticed this thread before I went on my first road trip. I didn't realize the backing of the seats were fragile...given that there's nothing to stop cargo from sliding into the back of the mid-row seats, I just assumed whatever material was being used could take a bit of rubbing...

This just shows that no one is ever happy with what they have. I thought I was somewhat future proofing my X when I decided to get it with autopilot (even if I didn't think I would really use it). AP2.0 was announced a couple weeks after I took delivery of my X and suddenly made my whole car...

When I bought my X, the one road trip I had in mind was to Mammoth...a 330 mile trek from my home which I often made over the 10+ years I drove a Honda Pilot. I figured a 90D Model X should be able to make it with a single coffee-break length stop at the Lone Pine Supercharger. This seemed...

In October, just a couple weeks after taking delivery of my Model X, I decided to bring her to my local Coffee & Cars event instead of my NSX because I had not yet seen a Model X at it. The event attracts a wide range of vehicles from classics to current exotics, but tends to be dominated by...

Is it weird that I'm totally bummed about not having the fog lights just because of how they are used in the Xmas light show?

I'm definitely going to be keeping an eye on this thread. Since I did buy the towing package, I like the hitch mounted solutions posted here, especially the BackBox enclosed approach for transporting snowboards...but I will wait until I hear more about your experiences with it on the X before I...

I watched my cousin having a similar debate about AWD with All-Season vs 2WD with Winter Tires on Facebook. He's all about the snow tires, but he lives in Toronto. Like the others of you who live in SoCal or other regions with snowless winters, but who love to play in it by taking road trips...

Since taking delivery of mine in September, I've put 3,311 miles and am averaging 378 Wh/mi. 1,000 of those miles was from my recent road trip to between L.A. and the Bay Area...for which I averaged 364 Wh/mi (was stuck in traffic for a good chunk of my northward journey). I have a 90D with...

As was the case in my pic...just coincides with the general trend of Americans favoring SUVs.

I just completed my first road trip between L.A. and the Bay Area last week..and stopped at the Buellton Supercharger on my way home on Friday night. I was surprised to see signs over half of the spots stating that they are exclusive to Teslas except after 8pm (I arrived after 8pm and didn't...

I spotted this transport while I was charging at the Buttonwillow Supercharger on December 26...perhaps one of yours is on here? (And am I the only one here disappointed to see Teslas traveling via dino fuel?)

Yeah, I really did not want to valet my Model X, but didn't see any choice other than to NOT drive the Tesla. As for my NSX, I actually cannot recall if I ever let a valet drive her...and I've owned her for nearly 17 years! Wait...how did you acquire a rhd Civic Type R?

I must have been lucky that my wife used to know someone at the Monterey Marriott because I once got permission to self-park my NSX in their valet area (the valet escorted me to a perfect spot in their garage with no parking spaces around it). That was over 13 years ago! This trip, we stayed...

Here's a video I recorded on Christmas...with two cameras instead of just one (should have used my smartphone as a third camera given that it can shoot 4K...so I could have done a lot more digital zooming at 1080p). I also should have left the lights off in the garage since the background looks...

Did my first road trip to San Francisco last week and had to valet park at the hotel (I usually try to avoid valet parking, but I didn't have a choice)...and I used the phone app to enable/disable valet mode, but forgot to do so initially. The first time I called ahead to request my car, I...

Nope...I don't have the PUP.

I've noticed that my light show seems to be lacking compared to some of the others that have been posted (for example, mine stays completely dark as the FWD opens). Is there a significant difference in headlights and fog lamps between configurations?
