All you guys with a rez number above 6300 will get your MX a little sooner

Barry · Oct 12, 2014

I just cancelled my MX rez and ordered an S85D.

Primary reason I reserved the MX was for AWD. As an empty nester, I don't need the additional space, and don't like the doors.

Congratulations and thank you.

Seems like it may become a common theme. Does anyone know the increased clearance on the Model X? That's one of the few arguments I could see for a reasonable number of customers.

AnxietyRanger · Oct 12, 2014

I guess quite a few people may consider this option. Unfortunately for myself, I just have to have those Falcon Wings and the misery that will surely follow from them in practice.

Ground clearance is a bonus, too, of course.

This may even be part of the plan. With the Model X delays, Tesla may have come out with the dual motor Model S to try to get some people waiting for the Model X to buy a Model S now.

Unlikely ... I heard internally that the Model S AWD would likely be introduced late Q3, prior to Model X & posted that at the beginning of this year. To me, this all seemed right on schedule.

Wasn't Model X originally slated to come out earlier, though?

At that point in time, no - I thought I'd be getting my Sig sometime late fall, perhaps by EOY. I heard Model S AWD would definitely come out before Model X (which was a surprise to me).

Well, maybe on schedule in the Tesla/Elon, time-warp universe. Oct 9 for the announcement is early Q4 and December for deliveries is late Q4...

Awww, c'mon. It was pretty darn close. Missed it by 9 days. (And I was talking announcement.)

I think I see what you did there.

nice and congratulations !! now if we can just get the other 12000+ peeps between you and I to cancel and order a P85D too ..

The more that drop out of the Model X the sooner I will get mine. Talk about what's in it for me syndrome!

Thank you for the insight. Anyway, I still recall Model X was originally expected to arrive before the dual-motor Model S. Isn't the Model X something like a year late by the time we now expect it to hit the road? Maybe I remember wrong.

My only point being, I'm not sure Model X necessarily originally was slated to be out after an AWD Model S. Or do you think it was always the plan?

From what I heard, it was the plan as of earlier this year. I can't speak to before that.

You're absolutely right regarding delays. I was hoping to have it by my birthday last December (and that seemed reasonable at the time). I don't expect to have it this year on my birthday.

Good news is that when you have another Tesla in the garage, it makes it much much easier to be patient.

Don't I know it. I didn't have that another Tesla for the wait, so I had to buy one.
