    S Plaid track prep?

    Anyone considering tracking their Plaid? Wondering about safety prep (roll bar, driver seat) - has Tesla ever shared how they prepped their development cars? Was planning on waiting for Plaid+ but there’s an event I’d like to do next May, probably won’t be out by then.

    2018 X front power outlet stopped working

    No coins got in it, not sure how it died. All USB ports still work, and the 12v plug in the rear hatch area works fine. Tested with multiple known-good devices, no luck. It did work earlier in the year. Where should I look to repair? Are there fuse diagrams somewhere? Was picked up new in...

    Michelin Pilot Sport SUV

    Brand new tire out from Michelin, available in MX sizes (at least, the 265 & 275-20's on my car). Am a big fan of Michelin and having had 2 flats and almost 20k miles on the OE Contis, looking forward to trying them out. Anybody tried them yet? If so would be interested to hear driving...

    Superchargers capped at 80% in some locations

    Be aware should this impact your trip planning in any way. No indication on the map of the policy. Experienced today at my local SC which was less than half full. Maybe just an inconvenience for some but for those of us who tow or otherwise push range limits regularly, this may be catastrophic.

    Removed rear seats from 6 or 7 seater?

    Hello, Imagine the process is the same for 6 and 7 seater. I have a 6 seater where the rearmost seats are rarely used, but the extra space would be of frequent help. Has anyone ever had removed, or removed themselves, the rearmost seats? A lot of minivans and SUVs make this possible. Looking...

    Wiring a Prodigy RF brake controller to the X trailer harness

    Couple revisions to my setup to address the above two concerns. First concern was getting +12V to the aux pin of the 7-way trailer connector, so the Prodigy RF would turn on. Before going any further, member ShawnA solved this in a different - and probably better - way than I did here: Tesla...

    FS: Bosal Hitch setup for Model X - never used

    From my July 2018-delivered MX, never used Bosal hitch setup. Includes the cross-bar and the insert thingy in bag, none of it was ever used and is all in perfect condition. Does not include the 7-pin electrical connector or its bracket - WYSIWYG. Asking $700. In San Diego, not gonna ship - can...

    Draw Tite hitch twist?

    Queston for users of the Draw-Tite aftermarket hitch for the X. Did yours have any “twist” in it as delivered? On mine, if one side is on a flat surface, the other side is a bit twisted, such that the highest corner sits 3.5mm proud of the reference plane. Thinking I maybe just got a poorly...

    Autosteer's sucky choice of lane position around bends

    So, got my car yesterday but already have 100+ miles of Autopilot under my belt. I really like the speed adaptation, and the lane-holding when things are straight is a little wobbly but passable. The thing I really don't like is how it behaves around bends, especially when there's traffic. If...

    Solid delivery, car, and first weekend

    Thought I'd post since a lot of the stories late have been of the horror variety :-) to perhaps assuage the fears of anyone picking theirs up soon, particularly those whose builds were part of the last-week-of-June 7k car thrash, as mine was. Ordered mid May originally for late June delivery...

    AMCI braking test

    AMCI is a company that helps auto manufacturers market their products, which sometimes includes conducting dynamic tests against their competition. They were intrigued by what's been going on with the Model 3, so they got one and ran their full braking protocol on it. I don't own a 3 but do...

    100D vs. P100D and towing

    This seemed like a good place to ask, vs. starting a new thread. Am sold on a MX 100, and plan to tow with it from time to time. Thanks to everyone who’s taken the time to chronicle their adventures! Instead of an airstream, will be pulling a race car in a small light aluminum trailer (96” wide...
