I play a nice person on twitter.
There are no Model X test drives yet - the beta versions aren't even in the stores.
There were a number of cancelled Model S reservations once details and pricing were released, so I'm not sure that's going to prove anyone's point about the doors. I think it IS a valid point that reservations appear to be ahead of the Model S on the same timeline, though to be fair, Tesla is much better known now.
Tesla would be insane to offer both doors to begin with. I get it. Some of you don't like the falcon wing doors. But this vehicle can't be everything to everyone. They need to offer a version and get that out the door, not delay things while they keep adding options.
My personal opinion regarding the angst about the doors is pretty simple: People have difficulty accepting change. The folks who don't like them keep coming up with reasons why Tesla should offer other doors, rather than just saying 'I don't like 'em'. The people who don't much care or do like them don't see all these other problems.
