    Best place to sell my 2017 Model X?

    Just sold mine on Vroom about 1 month ago - $7K more than what was being offered by Tesla for a trade in; and and about $4-5K more than Carmax or trade in with other dealerships (Volvo, BMW and MB) The process was painless, just some pictures, got the offer via email - once accepted, pick up...

    Family of 5: 6 Seats or 7 Seats

    I have a 6 seater - love how it looks, it’s great for the occasional time someone needs to get into the 3rd row. But the 6 seater def cuts back on cargo space as they don’t fold flat - had to get a bike carrier for my trailer hitch as my bike would not fit in it even with the wheel off. and I...

    Lowballed on trade-in from Tesla

    Tesla appriased by 16 P90D MX 39K miles on it, 20 inch wheels for 55K at the end of Feb, got it appraised again last week and it’s now 43K - granted I have added 3K miles since that initial appraisal but 12K price drop in 3 months is a bit crazy..

    Used 2016 Model X 90D Purchase Log

    I would note, repeat NOT get this - I bought the same car but with 20 inch wheels Dec 2018. Mileage is absolutely terrible. I live in CT, so nowhere as cold as you but even now with temps in the 40-50’s, my range with highway driving is closer to 140-150 miles - closer to 120 miles when it...

    Battery day expectations

    So after much back and forth, I've finally decided to get rid of my 2016 MX and get into a new LR+ - was looking over ev-cpo for any good deals, but just heard that Battery day is around the corner. Does that usually come with any meaningful updates/changes ? Should i wait to order? (and yes...

    How Model X ride/seat comfort?

    Nope. Mine is a 2016 MX P90D CPO that I got a great deal on ... or so I thought. Now looking to sell it and get into a new LR+ (the range on the 2016 is killing me)

    How Model X ride/seat comfort?

    I had a Porsche Macan before my MX and the Tesla is no way close when it comes to seat comfort and ride. My MX has a harsher ride than it did with my suspension set to Sport; just in size and weight alone I thought it would be better. Tesla’s fit and finish doesn’t come close to ‘luxury’...

    How many miles on your tires?

    Should I sell my 2016 MX?

    Unfortunately, I need the bigger space - I had a Macan previously but now have been spoilt by the MX’s space and can’t go back. But the P90D ride, so so soooooo bad.

    Should I sell my 2016 MX?

    I have gone back and forth about my CPO 2016 MX, and you echoed my feelings exactly about getting a great deal and feeling somewhat left behind by the AP1 - but yet having decent autopilot (with lane change and summon FWIW) I think driving it till the warranty runs out makes sense, am a bit...

    What to do: New 2016 MX

    They don’t clean / vacuum, my CPO has leaves everywhere - and even some old fries. I think they do the kind of clean you do when handing in a rental, grab the big stuff and flee.

    What to do: New 2016 MX

    I have a 2016 P90D and just drove a Performance Jan 2020 MX - and there is a marked difference in suspension and drivability. It actually feels like a 90-100K+ car - enough that I am now looking to sell my 2016 and get a new 2020.

    2016 vs 2020 - help

    If that’s true, that’s a sad indictment of Tesla build quality. My previous Porsche at 80K had the sand ride as when I bought it - air suspension too

    2016 vs 2020 - help

    OK, so I just posted on this in another thread but thought it was relevant here to : Just went for a test drive in one of the 2020's - build date was Jan 2020 - they only had a 22' performance, but damnit, the shocks and ride is miles improved. Like a totally different car. Actually felt...

    Should I sell my 2016 MX?

    Just went for a test drive in one of the Ravens - they only had a 22' performance, but damnit, the shocks and ride is miles improved. Like a totally different car. Though interestingly, my older car was quieter - hit an average of 61 Db, with a peak of 63; while the new one hit an average of 66...

    Should I sell my 2016 MX?

    The Blind Spot monitoring is actually one of the bells and whistles I’m looking forward - with my daughters car seat, I have a hard time seeing it. Make do by using the reverse camera (always on as default) but like the idea of actually having the car check in on me too. DashCam and Sentry...

    Should I sell my 2016 MX?

    Great points about getting an inventory I can actually see rather than ordering. As for waiting for real world numbers, anything has to be better than my MX I actually handed my Tesla in to the SC for a few days for them to drive and see if it was abnormal, and it came back as ‘within limits’...

    2016 vs 2020 - help

    I have a 2016 P90D and my real life range is around 180 miles, and down to 150 in the winter / cold. Like you, the range covers 90% of my driving range but for that 10%, it’s really frustrating - enough that I am considering selling and leasing a new one instead. Frankly, my experience with...

    Should I sell my 2016 MX?

    It is interesting what you learn about what you want/need - I don’t even think I used autopilot that much. I don’t know if I would use it more if it were the newer version - would definitely like the better cameras so I can ‘see’ my blind spot in the dash display though. but it really isn’t a...

    Should I sell my 2016 MX?

    Dear Tesla HiveMind who are smarter and wiser than me, I need guidance So in Dec of 2018, I was t-boned by a distracted driver and my non-MX car was totaled - I had promised myself that that was the last ICE car I was going to buy and so decided to jump into a Used MX - prob should have...

    AP 1 what am I missing

    KBB gives me 62k for trade in and 66-72k for private sale. Owe about 50k on it, though I did also get it wrapped. I figure I’ll soldier through the rest of the winter and then pick up a lease on a new one if a good deal pops up. I think I’m done buying into obsolescence with Tesla. I’m...

    351 Mile Range!

    I saw that initially but they have al reverted back to ‘non plus’ with the previous 328 range. so maybe it is a hardware thing.

    AP 1 what am I missing

    Thanks - would be good to know if it’s just my car that’s trying to drive me nuts. My battery usually goes down 40% doing about 44 miles (my daily commute) - and it has been a killer. i’ve given up looking at the reported miles as never find it to be accurate.

    AP 1 what am I missing

    I know this wasn’t your question but I see you’re in MA - Are you not having any range issues? My 2016 P90D MX gets a range of about 130-140 miles in the winter, even with weather in the 40’s and driving judiciously on the highway.

    Considering used model x (2016)

    I bought a CPO MX 2016 P90D with sub 15k mileage last year - I don't think I would do it again. The mileage - esp in winter - is utter tripe. Even driving slow (50 mph), on the highway, my expected range is only 140-160 miles. And with AP1, you miss out on all the new OTA stuff which is part of...

    2018 MX 75D vs 2020 Long Range Raven

    Is that due to weather - my ‘16 P90D with 36k mikes rates itself at 213 miles at 100%, but I’ll be lucky to get 160 miles out of it with judicious driving. That is in colder weather around 30-40 degrees, any colder and the range plummets and I’ll looking at 100 miles or so

    Are newer Model Xs Really Better? 2015/2016 vs NEW ?

    I have to admit the lack of vented seats in the newer ones has given me pause. Not having a sticky back on hot days is a quality of life issue for me.

    Are newer Model Xs Really Better? 2015/2016 vs NEW ?

    Goddamnit, you just had to go and make an excellent and well reasoned argument for why i should ditch my 2016 MX for a new one. I'm trying to convince myself to wait until a 400 mile range MX comes out before committing.

    New X?

    Paint / fit / etc aside - range with the MX can be a real pain, esp in the winter. Which part of the country do you live in? If you have cold winters and plan on doing 100 miles / day, if you have days where there is more driving, you may start to have issues. it’s not a dealbreaker, but it’s...

    Dilemma: CPO MX 90D vs P90D

    Sorry for the tardy response - car seat ventilation stopped working - acceleration shudder (finally fixed) - various plastic bits on the inside cracked (Tesla replaced them under warranty) I think the car is a Dec 2015 build. As for battery holding up - I did 72 miles today, highway driving...

    Dilemma: CPO MX 90D vs P90D

    Honestly, neither. I bought a CPO MX P90D (super low mileage - 15K) and it has been a disappointment. The car has been in the shop for a myriad of small reasons that though covered under warranty has been frustrating. And the mileage is ridiculous. The range estimated by the car is 198 miles...

    Potential long term owner....need advice

    Cannot agree with this more - I have a 16 MX and the range is killing me, esp in Winter. Tesla's projected ranges on their website is based on driving at 50 mph on the highway like a granny on valium. Almost, ALMOST making me want to sell mine and get into a lease with Long Range

    Used Model X buying help

    Exactly this experience, and what the previous buyer said, buying CPO from Telsa was a terrible experience. they don't do anything to do the car - the pictures they show you are not complete. Records showed after the fact that the car had not been serviced in 3 years - info they refused to give...

    Most tempting feature with the model update

    Will be interesting to see where they go with this - you would think logically they would want to make the S/X different given their premier nature (eg price) but I wonder if Telsa's drive for survival will make them choose the more cost conscious build everything the same and get economies of...

    Most tempting feature with the model update

    Most tempting feature with the model update

    Model X and S Updated

    Exact same boat - except with 20 inch wheels. I'm going to follow your lead and cool my heels ...but it's so tempting. Would love to get full FSD and the new shocks/driving dynamic (I miss my Porsche - shhhhhhhhh!)

    MX used vs new

    I bought a used 2016 90D from Tesla in December - similar issues being weighed up. AP1 vs 2; free supercharging, saving on a used vs new, and eventual resale price. Got a fantastic deal - fully loaded 6 seater for ~80K Couple of things - Tesla's used basically means they made sure the car...
