Bonnie was Sig #2 (S2)

So, Bonnie.... you most likely will be the first X to cross the country (which means the obligatory assembly plant parade).

While at it you can report on the best 'Dog Friendly' SC's.

You go girl! Bonnie's Xcellent adventure!!!! Can't wait!!!!

@Bonnie, if I don't get to see you after you take delivery and before you head out on the trip - hint, hint - here's wishing you a wonderful and safe trip!

Needless to say, please do be careful though: protect yourself from strangers - I'm not talking about the wonderful, friendly fellow forum members who are looking forward to the trip, of course. And, protect the X from grubby, careless hands too

Fantastic choice! Which interior options did you select. I'm leaning heavily towards blue myself and am white-leatherette-curious.

Tan leather. i'd hate to see how the white wears, and the black is just too dark. Light headliner, carbon fiber finish.

Sounds like a solid combo. Part of my interest in the white is that I currently drive a blue w/tan Model S and it's beginning to look like a pattern. Then again, why mess with perfection?

I'll probably end up with tan if, for no other reason, that the kids would trash the white.

Our car, Signature #1, will be blue. No road trip planned.

I'll certainly keep an eye out for it around town then.

 

[Diana]

Flat white. I've never been a fan of pearl. Think 'stormtrooper'.

i finally created an account because I HAD to share this. Any chance for a delivery (err...post delivery) party for the locals? Nate and I are super excited for you!

I'm starting to post in various threads re configuration, road trip, etc ... so thought we could corral it all in one thread.

Configured Sept 1, 2015

View attachment 92823

No doubt I'll pick up a set of 20s and put winter tires on - but first things first . The cold weather package may be jettisoned if it really is going to impact delivery date. Finding out now.

I'm planning a roadtrip after delivery (and Xpel) - most likely one circular route through SoCal, Texas, South Bend, Chicago, MN, Idaho, PNW, and home. Once I know, I'll post - and then keep it updated daily with supercharging plans via my twitter account (Bonnie Norman (@bonnienorman) | Twitter). I'd love it if I could meet people in various locations and show the X.

Looks great! Hope you don't mind if I steal your configuration? ;-)

Wait. No dark gray/black wheels to match the roadster? Or did they not offer them yet? Hopefully they do. If not, might have to aftermarket.

Sounds like a truly Xcellent Adventure. Was planning one in a new X too but it might have to wait until next summer. Or it could be a ski trip!

Anyway, look forward to following your adventures!

Cheers!

As I'm reading the towing thread I realized I forgot to ask if you'll be towing your sylvansport go on this adventure?

Bonnie this seems to have turned into a coronation for you or the X. You both deserve it. However I don't think TMC members fully understand your effort. I know I won't meet you in TN but your call to me during the fight for sales in TN was critical. At that point I had no idea of Tesla's position and you provided the link that I believe enabled its presence in this state. The power of Tesla owners has to be directed and you were a great help. I may try to go west to meet you.Thanks again Bill B

 

[AEdennis]

Great thread B. Shame you're only doing half the country though.... :tongue:

So what's the new license plate going to be? (Can't believe nobody asked that yet!)

Thanks, Bill. The whole dealersh*t issue is one that really has annoyed me. I should note that it was YOU and your fellow Tesla owners that stormed the meetings. I was glad to assist. We all made a great team.

Not this one, no. But long weekends, yes.

Halloween send off party and X viewing at picnic creek?

Go with the Signature Red. The only reason I'm not is that our Model S is Signature Red, and my Roadster is a similar color red. The totaling of our RAV4-EV (blue) and subsequent replacement with a white one opens up blue for the Model X...

Viewing, sure. Don't book dates yet, though . It will take me a little time to get on the road .. pesky things like xpel application, etc.

 

[dadaleus]

Have to reply right here just so that the above messages are Sig #1, #2, and then me. (I'm hoping we're actually #3 -- has anyone identified a #3?)

OK I must be dense.
But all I can get out of DSRPT is "disrepute." And that doesn't seem to fit - or was/is it a band name?
