    Model X Rear-ended but trailer hitch saves the day

    Driving home from work last night and someone tried to do a quick lane change behind me and wasn't able to completely get out of their lane and was pushed into me. Thankfully I always keep my trailer hitch on my X and it took 100% of the impact. My car is dirty but I don't think there was any...

    ALL sound goes away? Requires a reset?

    This happened to me yesterday. No sound - not even turn signal clicking. I stopped at home depot and when I went to leave - all was working again. I did do a bug report while it was going on though. Still on V8.1

    Reimbursement for interest accrued while waiting for delivery

    I fail to see the humor. Tesla cashed my CU's check 40 days ago. I'm closing in on my 2nd loan payment for a car I still haven't seen. The loss so far is past being a laughable amount.

    My New Tesla - What a NEGATIVE Experience

    Good luck man. I've posted here before detailing my ongoing saga with a custom-ordered X. It's been 40 days since the point I paid in full and still don't have the vehicle. Supposedly it was going to be picked up by the delivery carrier 2 days ago, but I hadn't heard anything. When I...

    Delivery confusion and registration questions

    I actually have a DA as well as a DS specifically for home deliveries. I e-mailed them both 3 days ago just simply asking on which side of the Q3 rush I should expect delivery. So far, nothing back yet.

    Delivery confusion and registration questions

    That sucks to hear about the delay. My X finished production 8/18. Tesla had 100% payment on 9/14. I haven't heard anything regarding vehicle movement since then. This is to Oklahoma FYI.

    Towing an Alto F1743 trailer with a Model X

    There is some great information in here. Thanks! I knew of the 5k towing capacity limit, but I hadn't ever heard of the 500lb tongue limit, or the Weight Distribution stuff. Also picked up a tip to shop around for a weight measuring ball to deal with that first issue. I have a ~2500lb...

    Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

    Yes, I agree. Alliant gave us 3.49% and Aspire gave us 2.99%. The direct-deposit discount is an easy slam-dunk so ours will end up being 2.49% for 60 months which is pretty reasonable. (note, this is on a $80k loan for an X, and we are very well qualified) From the time I gave the loan...

    Tesla loan comparison spreadsheet - auto updates hourly

    Just want to confirm what this user wrote. The 1.99% rate is nolonger available. Plus, my loan officer was extremely rude to my wife and I.

    Darn, I was just at the beginning stages of this one hoping to get the 1.99%

    Horrible Model X delivery Fremont, car was so bad Tesla said to rebuild new one

    I'm in the same boat. No service center in my state and I'm very worried about receiving a quality build and my options if there are issues. Car has been built for over 2.5 weeks now and haven't heard another peep from Tesla despite multiple e-mails.

    Spare tire on road trips?

    This is some strait up horeshit. These companies are just trying to protect their bottom line. A correctly-installed plug will prevent any such "elements" from reaching the belts just as well (if not better) than a patch. I've plugged my tires countless times and never had a single one...

    6 weeks since MX confirmation - account page still says "scheduled for production in our factory"

    Yep - just checked mine as well (I assumed I was waiting for an e-mail?) but mine says it's in production now as well (75D).

    6 weeks since MX confirmation - account page still says "scheduled for production in our factory"

    Looks like based on the tracking sheet posted here: Model X Order/Delivery Tracking - Google Sheet That none of your other fellow 6/27 reservation buddies have gotten their production date yet either. Reserved mine 6/30 so I'd be a few lines below you if you add your data.

    PUP as standard?

    Edit: Hold the phone... seems the price increased a total of $3,500 with the new base configuration on a 75D. Up to $83,000 from $79,500 base. Still a discount compared to before but not as significant as the electric article made it seem. Tesla updates Model S and Model X options, makes...

    PUP as standard?

    Following.... I placed my order ~3 weeks ago, the PUP wasn't worth it to me at $5k, but at $2k... it's a completely different story. Especially on the X with more seats to take advantage of heat, and self-presenting doors.

    MX vs M3P

    We were actually in the same situation about a month ago. I've had a Model 3 reserved since day 1 but after much discussion and actually test-driving an X; we decided it was a better fit for our family. We even got to see the Model 3 in person at the Dallas store when visiting. The primary...

    Tesla Referral Program

    Yea, as I'm quickly discovering the ship date has already slipped before - and I wouldn't want to end up without the charger when it gets here. It seems the most lucrative situation might be if I found somebody sitting at 4 referrals trying to climb to 5 for the free powerwall/invite. Then...

    Tesla Referral Program

    I've been a Tesla fan forever and am now purchasing an X. Nobody has really "referred" me in the general sense. The signature wall charger would be a great way for me to save $500, but I cannot refer myself. Has anyone successfully referred each-other resulting in you both getting both the...

    Signature Black Wall Charger Award Date Sliding?

    When these new fancy wall-chargers DO ship, what do people plan to do with their old ones? From my understanding there may not be any difference "under the hood". I wondered if someone might offer their old (or new one) as a trade for a new referral.
