    Driver Door Klonk

    You mean the hinge bolts? They seem pretty tight. Thank you for the thought though. Maybe there's something wrong with the lock itself. I'll investigate over the weekend.

    Driver Door Klonk

    Hello All, It's now been 3 months and a few thousand miles with our new MX and love it, except one thing: When closing the driver door (either with a button or brake pedal), the door makes an awful "Klonk" before the snugging "Pfft". The passenger door does not do that, it just...

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    my only purpose for getting a CT is towing and business. So the promised 500m range and 14K towing sounded really great. I guess what i meant was 300 miles towing at 65-70mph

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    do you own one?

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    I have no idea what i have gotten myself into on this particular thread. I'm definitely not a CT hater. We ordered 30 seconds after the reveal. AND we still have our CT FS invitation to order in our app. I just need something more than 300miles of range

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    And herin lies the problem: If the CT is a game changer then the "platform" should already have provisions for a flatbed/box truck/van/conversion van etc. Now THAT would be forward thinking and appealing to masses. Sofar all we can see is a mid size Hollywood truck

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    As I said over at the CT forum: I was super excited to reserve a 500 mile range, 14K towing capacityTri motor EV truck for $ 69K. 4 years later I got an invite to order a 340 mile range, (range extender for 16K, which will never happen), 11K towing, and a few extras Hollywood Sunset Blvd, truck...

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    I agree

    tire alignment question

    This whole wheel alignment sounds crazy to me. Shouldn't vehicles come with optimal alignment from the factory, (with stock tires and rims non-the-less)??
  13. AustroTom

    real time range WOW

    I Do have to play with that some more definitely. Also will go have the alignment checked
  14. AustroTom

    real time range WOW

    Yeah, I AM guilty of driving upwards of 90 sometimes (its easy with this car)
  15. AustroTom

    tire alignment question

    Don't the newer MXs adjust the ride height automatically to the speed?
  16. AustroTom

    real time range WOW

    new as in '23 or '24?
  17. AustroTom

    real time range WOW

    Woa, how do you get under 300 in an X?
  18. AustroTom

    real time range WOW

    On our (sofar), 800 mile distance we used a toal of 272kwh at an average energy of 328Wh/mi
  19. AustroTom

    real time range WOW

    We have found that if not speeding too much and or AC, the 3 is mostly true to the said range.
  20. AustroTom

    real time range WOW

    So this weekend we fully charged our new XLR and it stopped at 348 miles. Sofar we have driven 224 miles and it shows 26 miles left, REALLY?? :oops: :oops:. We own an S and a 3, so we know what real time means, but I had no idea that the X is THAT bad

    12v and usb plugs

    I just want to make sure that my under dash lights are off when the car is off as well
  22. AustroTom

    12v and usb plugs

    Hello All, Are the 12v and usb plugs in the center console always hot or only when the car is on? I want to install a under dash led light strip to actually be able to see the phone or drink in the front cup holders and need to figure out how to power it Thank you

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    is a six seater the only option for Plaid??

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    How cheap do you want this thing to be??
  25. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Maybe the next refresh will eliminate the side mirrors (alas Cybertruck), and they want to ease us into it 🤣
  26. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    We tried it on our new X as well and did NOT work. So either all three cameras are displayed or none

    didnt see a windshield sunscreen but the rear floor mat was under the trunk cover

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Yes, it can and we did on ours :D
  31. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Hope this is not going to happen to you. And about the 23 vs. 24, not really sure how to answer that as it is only a date. Car is the same. But if you want to resell quick it might look better in the ad.
  32. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Thank you for the info. I'm mainly interested in illuminating the area right above the phone charger pads under the dash. It's super dark under there. Can't even find the cup holders at night. Probably the reason why TESLA wants to introduce more ambient lighting?

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    why swing and miss?

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    if you got the vin already are you sure it would take 2-3 weeks to deliver? ours was 3 days
  35. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Would you mind letting me know the brand and model of the lights you used?
  36. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    So how close is everoyne with their tax edition MXs two days before New Year?? Everybody got theirs or at least got their VINs?
  37. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    How did you connect it to the electrical system? 12v plug? How is it switched?
  38. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    I personally don't care if its a 23 or 24. The only thing i wished in our new MX is some under dash lighting in order to see the phone in the charger or find my drink in the cup holder. Oh, well

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Guys, there was a reason Tesla introduced the FSD and FUSC transfer to people who would order a model X or S BEFORE next year. They wanted to get rid of as many 2023s as possible in the last quarter. If someone rejects a VIN just because "I want a 2024" then you lose that privilege. Any other...

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    We picked our MX up at Carlsbad CA sc and we also got a bow on a perfectly detailed car. It seems very un-Tesla to deliver a car as it was described above. Did you take pictures? Talk to a manager?
  41. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Say, NO, I want my ordered car with the tax credit and either FSD or UFSC transfer (whichever you chose)
  42. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Seems strange that they wouldn't give you any options. we were able to choose a day and time on our app. We even switched it back and forth a couple of times.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    successfully picked up our TAx edition SG X today. Perfect fitment, great staff experience (Carlsbad CA), and wonderful drive home. Insane mode is insane. My son graded the FSD a B+. And i have to get used to sitting so high after being used to the S and the 3. So glad we got it for Christmas...

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    We are struggling now if we should wait for the $ 1,000 discount to be applied or if we should just take the 10.000 points since we need a charger cable and possibly a couple of fobs anyway
  45. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    how much would 10,000 points be equal to the 1K discount?
  46. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    We even have an invitation to order a Founders CT on our app (haven't decided yet), so if I call Carlsbad (where we are picking up our tax edition X today), they should aknowledge the discount?
  47. AustroTom

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Wait, are you getting a 1k discount for being a CT reservation holder or because you ORDERED a Foundation??? We also have been invited to order a foundation but it doesn't mean anything until we actually ORDER.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    picking ours up tomorrow from Carlsbad, yay!

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Do we need to buy fobs for the new vehicle? (I hate the card)
