    I'm a new owner of a Tesla Model S P100D. Having a blast owning and of course driving it. Look forward to sharing any and all info with fellow Ohioans, or anyone who finds this page.

    Hi, just received delivery 3/3/17 from Columbus OH of a Model X 75D in metallic blue with tan interior! 7 miles on odometer. Home is Steubenville OH. 2017-Tesla-Model-X-75D-876x535.jpg

    Hi jgreer. Thanks for sharing. So, how's the X been performing for you? Seems like another great car from Tesla. I was debating between the X and the S. The X is a smart, practical choice. It's probably what my wife would've preferred... but... it's the S that's sitting in the garage now. Ha.

    So the guys at the Easton location store helped you out? I worked with Joe over there. He was great. Was it delivered to their store for pick up or to your house directly?

    I ended up driving down to Nashville to pick mine up. Drove it right out of the showroom, then back up to Ohio. Not sure that was the smartest thing to do but I was anxious to get asap and that was the quickest way for the model and packages I wanted.

    Hi Cordium. Picked it up at Easton service center. No home delivery option for a non-P car! :confused: There were a couple dozen in the non-descipt parking lot. Without the tall Tesla sign, I would have driven right by it.

    I am tall 6'3" and fit much better in the MX. Also downsized from an 11-year old 236K mile Lincoln Navigator, so I was used to having the space. I was pleased to get folding 5-seater and half price air suspension. So far, very happy :)

    Air suspension is nice, right? Half price air suspension is even nicer. And 'smart' air suspension at that... We've got a gravel drive with a few bumps and drops in it. First time I drove on the driveway I manually moved Air Suspension to 'highest' setting. Second time I came to the front of our driveway I didn't think to raise the suspension when the car raised itself 'based on location'. Weird having a car smarter than me.

    I'm 6'3" as well, but was bumping around in my Ford F350 or my wife's Honda Insight, so the Model S is like getting transported to the bridge of the Enterprise Starship in comparison.

    Sorry, I meant to say Model S! It is scheduled to complete production in a week or so.
    I think Model S has plenty of headroom and legroom, at least for the front seats.
    The back seats are a different story though: I wouldn't want to be sitting there, hopefully will never have to!

    Hello Ohioans:
    I'm new to this group, but not to Tesla. Acquired my first Model S in 2014, then the current one. Put >30K miles of long distance driving between the 2. I'm glad to see we have a Tesla club of our own. Special hello to fellow Athenian @CORDIUM. There're not that many of us here in SE OH.
