I don't like my money, so 90D it is!
i think if I stop eating out 2x a day, I'll be skinnier and get the 90.
The Tesla P90d cleanse! Lol... New way to lose that extra belly fat

The price difference is really 10k because I would never skip the air suspension anyway, so yes 90D is the only way to go.
2. wait another 2 years and get a 90D used and the same price. because for us willing to buy used... depreciation is AMAZING.
I would get the bigger pack if you plan to tow anything.
Yeah, this is the boat I'm in. I've ordered a 70D, but I know that it's not the frugal choice. I think I will enjoy my first two years of X ownership, and I think it's worth buying new, but given the quality of Tesla's CPO program, it really isn't the most financially savvy choice. I'm okay splurging on this luxury for myself given that I've waited 3 years.
Although I'd love the 90D, I'm just not able to pay the extra $311 every month for a small amount of extra range that I might only use a few times per year. The 70D is a significant savings, and even if I get stranded a few times and have to wait an hour at a public charger to limp to the next supercharger, that's probably still worth $17k.
im with you there. For the longest time I though I was going for the 90D but I also told myself if the range on the 70 comes in around 220 or more I'll be happy with a 70. I'm curious what options you ordered on your 70D? Also, does anyone know at what percentage supercharger speeds slow down? Is it once charged to 80% or 90%? How fast from 80-90%? I ask because 90% of 220 gets you around 200 rated miles and some superchargers here in the south are about 170 miles apart when means a 90% charge (at minimum would be nice) to cruise from point a to b. Not sure the time difference in speed of charging from 80-90% but again the $15k difference is hard to justify even if you have to wait around 15 min longer a dozen time or so a year.
put that way, it's a whole 'nother ball game
I was thinking of 90D w/towing vs. 70D w/out at a $16k difference.
over a loan, that's well, easy math, 5 years = $266 / month.
With interest, that's even more monies! for $266/month I can rent a damn suburban and tow what I want...
even now w/my Tahoe, we may hit the lake.. what? 10x a year max? for 3 months? 4 months?
I've found that enterprise commercial rents heavy duty trucks - but I don't think you're allowed to tow with them?!
Of course that $16k could buy a used suburban as well for towing and leave the nice X safely at home
