Great story! Congratulations on deciding to get the model X. I came from a Nissan too, 2017 Armada, I also hated it after testing driving the X, didn’t know why because I used to think the armada was my favourite car. We just took delivery of the model x last week with premium package too...

I’m curious what your previous status was, does it change (from Tesla in production) to delivery date when they have scheduled an appointment with you?

Hi I was on a similar boat couple months ago, we ended up trading in both our gasoline cars for a model X instead of one for one. And would consider adding a model 3 in the future (if we ever find the need). You need to find out how your family will use the Tesla before deciding on model X vs...

Sorry I did not take any photos. There was a red Model 3 being delivered. There’s a slightly offsite area where they wash and clean up the cars in preparation for delivery. Like in the other post I saw a dark grey M3 near the entrance. They said many are enroute. Hang in there!

Just came back from PNE Forum. Site’s looking good, they have about 20 deliveries today and scheduled 60-70 deliveries/day next week. Nice folks, spacious arena.

Saw a brand spanking new black Model 3 in Coquitlam just around noon! Congrats!

no worries!

Great looking ski rack! Thanks for the pictures!

Same experience here in Vancouver, much lower (15%-20%) than lowest black book value through Tesla

the monochromatic look of grey on grey is very sexy

what should Tesla do to refine their FWD in your opinion? X is a very new and "beta" what the world can offer as premium high tech SUV, I do believe there's room to improve.

coming from a viper owner! I always thought EVs were "boring" cars, and only for people looking for practicality, my view has shifted the more Teslas I see on the road and how they manage to make the S & X, now the 3 gorgeous to look at. I'm glad to hear you're enjoying the X every time you...

That's my point! as per your older post, 1 per fare ($186) is 40%+ more than driving a model 3 which carries up to 5!

I went through the same struggle, so what did you end up getting?

Is it a common thing in the X?

I just did the math, your 2 kids had no experience with any gas stations lol!

I'm starting to see it this way now, I mean the blunt force of a smashing swing door can crush anything. I mentioned above that I find the motorized X doors seem quite gentle

True, with any car we're supposed to train our little ones with any types of doors. My wife found her thumb in the door once she almost crushed it, it happens. From my limited experience with the X in both showrooms I remember all 4 doors being quite "gentle" in terms of their weight and...

Greyhound from LAX to NYC $186!

this is all great information! what happens if you were to park at the supercharging stations overnight but not plugged? $110 from California to Florida it's cheaper than taking Greyhound! Just did a quick google search the fare is $208!

Wait, you're saying at certain location with limited height ceiling the X would remember the height setting if I were to stop the FWD by hands? and it remembers and recalls the height every time it's back in the same location? I've never seen this feature on youtube or discussion. Neat!

My guess for the next update is sometime late 2018 - early 2019 - body colour fenders to replace all the black plastic parts - better aerodynamic/redesigned 22" wheel option - motorized frunk

I agree with you, if we had a model 3 it'd be a different story (2nd car?). From what I understand with a model X/S, we just park and plug, it's an unlimited lifetime thing right?

Would you sell your "backup" ICE and maybe finance another Tesla? or there's no need for a second car in the household? we are in the same boat, 2 cars = convenient but not necessary, 1 model x = sharing or fighting who gets to drive :)

Thanks, so what you're saying is there's a "3rd" type of interface besides J-xxxxxx and Tesla's and it's used by Leaf mostly, but they are quite fast compare to J-standard but much slower than Tesla's 120? do you have adapters for all types of chargers?

All those things you mentioned I actually noticed during my brief test drive, it was actually quite unforgettable. 2 hours later I sat back in my huge Nissan Armada, I felt the interior cramped compared to the model X! how could that be? I must agree the Model X is quite a special SUV, the...

Agreed. Now I can see cleaning interior of a car a pleasure! You can do the same with trans-Canada road trip but it just takes longer. There are quite a few of fast DC chargers (buy your own CHAdeMO adapter) nowadays in Canada. Green icon= Level 2, J1772 at about 6.6 kW. Brown icons= Fast...

OK, I need your help lol I'm assuming all the grey thunders are prospective Tesla superchargers?

Congratulations on your new X! your post is very reassuring as we found ourselves trying to work around (or change) old habits with ICEs to welcome our new model X. I do worry a little if our garage's going to allow the FWDs fully extended and lifted. Also we're unsure if it's safe for our 2...

You think so? any announcements of expanding the Canadian supercharger network?

Thanks for the careful insights, I believe im starting to notice the little details now, having spent hours in the showroom, the FWD was a turndown for us but after our kids climbing on the second/third rows we realized it's a win.

That's good thinking! I do love to think not having to go to gas stations anymore and pumping every week. Our major concerns were not having 2 cars (now we're sharing one X) and maybe 5% of the year when we actually hit the road and go really far since we don't have as many SC stops as the...

You know your Canadian geography & SC stops! Your story is very encouraging, and yes there're way more SC stops in the states than our west - east coasts route. we wish to do Canada-cross one day with the X!

Anyone knows if the 20" sonic carbon wheels on Tesla's website were powdercoated/patined over the original silver?

Hi, how's the condition on the 22" Black turbine? any pictures? what's the cost to ship to Vancouver BC? Thanks!

Just ordered the X100D at a local Tesla store. Trading in both wife's Lexus IS350 and my 2017 Nissan Armada, 3.5L + 5.6L of ICE. A little nervous! Have a feeling we are losing flexibility & possibility of longer road trips in the future. what's your story with your first Tesla as your main...
