Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

[DCGOO]

to put on a bike rack, do we need to buy a tow receiver? It used to be included..but I never used it. I plan to get one for hauling snowboards and wasn't sure if I had to go out and buy a receiver

If you are referring to the X, it is included. Optional on a Y

Also now a March 2022 EDD moved from Feb. June 2021 order White/Black/LR/20s/5seat. I have such little faith and hope that I'm moving forward with a new Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve 5 seat Hemi V8 that I can take delivery of in a few weeks. If and when the MX ever arrives, I'll give the Jeep to the wife and drive the MX.

Just called the Tesla delivery line again for my weekly dose of emotional damage.

To paraphrase, she told me: "Everything is great! There are no more parts shortages. All backordered MX will be delivered by the end of March 2022. The MX is so fast you're going to love it!"
I suppose it's 5 o'clock somewhere but okay I admire her spirit.

Apparently drug tests aren’t mandatory at Tesla…

And people were downvoting me when I said all the dates were gonna move to March in the next week…

Wasn't me.. but most like to live in a delusional fantastical state. How dare you speak of reality!

Ugh, Woke up to same, March 22 now. MXLR 7 seater, White/White 20”, FSD, Ordered 6/28/22

Hard to believe still, a suv released/on-sale without the availability of a what used to be a basic part of an suv, a darn 3 row bench. They may as well release these things without a round steering wheel too.

I also jokingly said page 1500 for 5/7 seat deliveries which might have been too conservative at the rate we are going :/.

Based on the model X subreddit someone was having issues with a single part they needed for their refreshed X and it was an airbag part which does make me wonder if they’re building all those X in the field without airbags and that is what is holding us all up.

They had that recall and had to replace a bunch so I bet the new brand or fixed model of airbag they need is in short supply.

When I called them this week, the lovely Ben told me to expect March, so I’m not surprised, but he did share at least the same sentiment that cars are moving out quickly.
But seems like we’ve had no new VINners in awhile? I’ve unfortunately been slammed with work and haven’t stayed as current here, did I miss any major new waves?

correct

As I’m currently a mere hour away from Tesla Fremont, I celebrated my 1 year anniversary of my order 6 seat long range MSM/Cream X.

At least Napa has enough wine to drink the sorrows of my anniversary gift from Tesla being another delayed EDD.

Y’all are great though and a much needed venting space!

 

[FLGatorRay]

March here as well. There was talks about headlights possibly changing what’s the word on that?

I’m wondering if I changed my order to plaid, would I get it sooner? Haha

I was thinking the same thing. Also thinking about buying a used or a new SLR and trading it in when the X arrives. Worried about the resale value dropping but that does not seem to be a problem now.

Also rolled over to March 2022. But my service advisor said I had a delivery estimate of February 2022 and should expect a phone call in the next couple of weeks to prepare for delivery…

Same with me here in Canada, kind of.....

The advisor reached out to me last week with an email word salad full of optimism and false statements.

One humorous sentence he wrote was, "as we prepare for this exciting time, we are here to answer any of your questions"

My question in response.... "What exciting time are you referring to? There has not been a single 5 seat configuration delivered in the United States, and not a single Model X delivery in Canada yet"

No reply.

I'm so unbelievably pissed off with the lack of information, Tesla is VERY lucky they have no competition.

Question: how many still have February 2022 as EDD?

 

[outie]

so im a little confused with the new change over for the plaids... will i get my 5 seater?

No. They will call you to switch to 6 seater. They aren’t producing any Plaid 5/7 seater at all.

 

[outie]

Question: how many still have February 2022 as EDD?

I do. Originally Plaid 7 seater switched to LR 7 earlier this week. Don’t really give a crap about EDD staying in Feb as it means absolutely nothing.

 

[Unclepaul]

Think I'm going to buy a refreshed Grand Cherokee as well. They look pretty nice.

Um what now…
When charging with the Tesla Wall Connector or at the Sueprchargers, the car displays the voltage, amps, and mph as in miles “added to the battery” per hour. Motor efficiency is not used in this context.

The Refresh X has the higher energy density Panasonic 18650 batteries (compared to older S and X) and the upgraded battery management system allows more power into (and out of) the battery pack (again compared to older S/X).
So the increased 34 “mph” compared to 30 “mph” when using the Tesla Wall Connector is a nice find!

Not caught up, so someone else may have already said this. Efficiency does matter in this context. The "mph range per hour" charge rate that is displayed is a function of the charge power. Basically (voltage*amps)/(rated Wh/mile). The key being that the rated Wh/mile is based on the efficiency of the vehicle. The on-board AC charger is limited to the same peak power on all Teslas since ~2019, and it is FAR below the peak power accepted by any of the batteries. So improvements in batteries is not going to improve the AC charge rates in terms of watts. If you are trying to compare charge speeds of the batteries in different vehicles you can't go by mph/hour, you need to go by kWh/hour ie. watts. The refresh X isn't different than the previous X in that regard. Much older Xs are built with two on-board AC chargers, so they do have double the AC charge rate than the newer Xs (including refresh).

Supercharging (ie. DC charging) is different in that it bypasses the on-board AC charger and supplies power directly to the battery. This allows it to hit the max charge rate of the battery itself, and can vary depending on the battery in the vehicle.

You changed this week? You paid current price for LR?
