    Tahoe Road Trip - Range Concerns in Snow

    We’re planning on going from LA to Tahoe in our X75D this week. First time skiing in Tahoe! It may snow a few feet during our drive there. My main concern is having enough charge to go from Sacramento-Rocklin to Truckee supercharger going uphill in the snow. The trip is 78 miles. ABRP is showing...

    Bike Hitch Rack and Superchargers

    Planning to purchase a Thule Apex XT 5 to carry our 5 bikes. We might take some trips that require supercharging in Southern California. Are there any challenges with using this bike rack and fitting the Model X to supercharge? For 5 bikes, are there any other recommended bike hitch racks?

    Account Security Risk?

    I received an error on the Tesla mobile app stating “Sign-In Failed. There are no products linked to your Tesla account.” I have 2 Teslas and they were no longer there. After speaking to a Tesla representative, they made it aware that the name on the account was no longer under my name. They’re...

    Selling 4 Model X 20" Staggered Slipstreams for $700 OBO for local pickup. They were powder coated gray and used for about 4,000 miles. Two of the wheels have curb rash. Decided to not keep them since I preferred the original silver color with our Model X.

    Falcon Wing Door Safety Risks?

    If a serious accident occurs, are falcon wing doors more or less safe than doors on SUVs or vans? If the battery is damaged and the FWD wasn't working, I was wondering what the quickest way to exit would be. We have 3 kids 8 and under and they won't be able to do the manual option. They would...

    Model 3 AWD Rear Motor Output

    On the standard Model S AWD, the rear motor had less power than the RWD version. Will the Model 3 likewise have a different motor between AWD and RWD? If the motor is the same between both, seems like the AWD should have a materially faster 0-60. Will the P version have a stronger rear motor?

    Aftermarket wheels worsen wh/mi?

    After installing tsportline 20" wheels to replace my Model X slipstreams, I noticed about a 5-10% increase in wh/mi. Tires are the same. It surprises me because the old and new wheels are the same size. For example, my regular route home would take about 330 wh/mi on slipstreams but is now...

    Road Noise 19" vs 21" Wheels

    I'm considering upgrading to 21" wheels on the Model S. My largest concern is the road noise. How does the road noise compare between the 19" versus 21" wheels? Will having ContiSilent on the 21" minimize the noise difference?

    Parking and Charging Outside

    We have single garage doors and the Model X barely fits into our garage due to the width of the car. We pretty much need to fold the mirrors each time to get in. When parking and charging outdoors, is there anything we need to consider? Would the interior leather crack or wear out more quickly...

    When do you think Autopilot 2 will be released?

    I'm sure we all have predictions of when AP2 will be released. When do you think it will be released and what is your thought process? My thoughts are a release will be in October. For Q3, Tesla wanted to stimulate demand by having the 2 year lease, discounts and releasing the 60. The lease...

    60D Confirmed! My Buying Decision Process

    My Tesla Model S was confirmed last week. I wanted to share my reasons for our decisions since it took considerable time and effort to research the options (over 10 hours!). This forum was great to do the research but it was essential to visit the design center and test drive both the Model S...
