I'm taking delivery hopefully soon.
I ride a road bike a couple times a week. I hope to have room for my helmet, shoes pump and other related stuff. I love the idea of a large towel with bungee cords. The bike fits perfectly in the back with the seats down. Anyone else doing this?
i also am thinking of leaving my car at the Tesla charging station 4 miles away to charge, ride my bike a couple hours and accomplish two things at once. Excited here in Sarasota.

I went with the eco hitch and Yakima HoldUp 2-inch Black - Yakima Hitch Mounted Bike Rack carrier option to keep my muddy off road bike out of the car and save the cargo room for other stuff. Also have the option to carry both the carbon fiber road bike and offroad bike without damaging the frame with this carrier
here is a link to the system I got -check out the video on how it works:Yakima HoldUp 2-inch Black - Yakima Hitch Mount Bike Racks

I think the answer is "kind of."
P85D frunk: yeah, it's small
Of note is that shortly after the pictures in this thread were taken, perhaps coincidentally and perhaps not, the OP's frunk mechanism stopped working. (There's a related thread if you like for details.)

I would be willing to lose my complete frunk if they made an option to add 200 more miles of range on demand. Like a drop in Lithium Ion rechargeable battery option.
Also i would be willing to give up the space for the 200+ more HP and AWD...

A donut spare wheel/tire. The tools are in the rear footwell. The wheel is placed with the cavity up so small bags of whatever can be stowed there if additional luggage space is needed.

It's generally empty, but it's become my go-to place to put takeout. Not only is the little area is the back perfect for pizza boxes, but bags of takeout usually fit pretty nicely back there as well. Not only does the food not slide around, but the frunk keeps it pretty warm and, most importantly, keeps the smell out of the main cabin. This has been a huge plus for me! ;-)
Aside from that, it's come in very handy on trips with the kiddos. When the back is cram-packed full with luggage and various kid toys and stuff, having that extra few cubic feet of space to shove stuff is a lifesaver. ;-)

I used to put groceries there a lot, but now the only time I open it up is at car shows, so I keep my references there in plastic pages: how to charge, how much carbon production compares for ICE, EV, and a cyclist, SC map, etc.

I clean commercial offices two days a week...on those days I keep a dyson vacuum, mop pole, extension cord and a bucket with all my cleaning supplies...
on on the other days it's used for groceries. It's opened on average at least once a day. I've got three small dings in the hood from early knuckles when my husband would close it (they are barely noticeable) otherwise I haven't experienced the frunk crease thankfully.
Also in regards to Palm prints I have xpel on my hood and it gets waxed once a month by the place that did the wrap and I've never noticed any hand prints on th hood. (My girl is dolphin grey)

Love the square D Breaker setup -- I have got to make one of those. I thought about doing this with a HPWC and 100AMP setup. Only problem is the extension cable gets really heavy and expensive!!!!

What a fun thread! I put my daughter in there when she's bad
No seriously (I'll be here all week) I put a bike, helmet and pull-over up there.
Rear footwell contains charging adapters (which i never use thanks to the great Supercharger network around here), shopping bags, shoes and fix-a-flat. BTW since people are talking bikes, I've put a total of 4 adult, one kid's and one bike trailer in the MS; partially disassembled of course. That's 5 1/2 bikes! Certainly more than you can ride at a time.

I have a Camco 50 AMP 30' extension cord (Amazon.com: Camco 55195 50 AMP 30 Extension Cord with PowerGrip Handle: Automotive) and old dryer adapter to use when I visit my parents. The cord is bulky and would be awkward to store in the back well. Still plenty of space though.
