    HELP! Driving our virgin Model X in the real world?

    The other question you need to have an answer ready for is "How much did you pay for it"? The stock answer is "They start at $XX,000, but the Model 3 will soon be out with a base price of $35,000". I suspect you are not the type who is interested in giving out exact details on this question...

    Today - taken at Signal Hill, St. John's, Newfoundland. Welcoming TeslaXCanada in their Model X, who just completed their cross Canada drive while towing a camper trailer! 15,000 Km! Great job guys. Jon

    Ahh, the magic! Actually, I am the owner of the most easterly Model X, so this trip is actually about 20 minutes from our home. If anyone else cares to drive their Tesla to the east end of Newfoundland, our place is available for charging. Looking forward to welcoming TeslaXCanada soon. Jon...

    Meet Verity, the bubblegum-pink Model X

    Great write up, thanks for the detailed information. I presume you will never lose your car in a parking lot now. Glad to hear you are pleased with it too. Jon

    Last weekend we took our Sig X to Cape Spear, Newfoundland, Canada - the most easterly point in North America. As we were parked, we watched a whale continuously breaching. Where has everyone else been with their X? Jon

    Songs that sound REALLY GOOD on the Model X Premium sound system

    I am really enjoying not hearing the same music from my collection over and over again, nor having to listen to the crap my local stations play. The quiet ride of the Model X makes listening to good music even better. A few songs I recently found that sound really good on the premium sound...

    Wiki Model X Reset Techniques

    No,nothing, and the slacker still works. I called tech support. They quickly determined I was a revision behind in firmware and that Google Maps has updated their security recently which would be addressed in the newer version. They're pushing it to me shortly. Thanks for your suggestions...

    Wiki Model X Reset Techniques

    My on screen mapping has stopped displaying either maps or overhead view, yet still knows my location. Has anyone found some way of resetting that? The problem seemed to occur after we were out of 3G range for a bit. Thanks, Jon

    Model-X life-hacks

    My "life-hack" is to stuff several short pieces of foam pipe insulation under the two seat belt receptacles in the third row seats. This holds them up for my two kids in car seats back there so they can buckle their seat belts themselves. If they are left up and I put down the rear seats, the...

    Model X Canada

    I stuffed a few short pieces of 1/2" foam pipe insulation into similar voids on other cars. The stuff is clean and easily cut, and dark gray, so doesn't look out of place too much. http://flyfishing.thefuntimesguide.com/images/blogs/pipe-insulation.jpg Jon

    any regrets on cost?

    This is what I got when I looked for something of similar caliber to the Model X here in NL. There has been a slight variation in price since I finalized my options on the X (when I last made my comparison calculations) likely due to the a exchange rate. There's a reason why so many used...

    any regrets on cost?

    Gregkeys, we had some similar concerns as you have mentioned. We have four children 6 and under, and occasionally I tow trailers with everything from mulch to my small loader/backhoe tractor. I did the math on the cost. Here in Canada, a minivan with all wheel drive and 6-7 seats would be...

    Model X Canada

    Yes, agree completely. I was driving about 1100Km/month in my truck, and I am now almost three times that. Of course, having a car my whole family can fit into allows for day trips we have been looking forward to for some time, and we are making good on that plan now. Enjoying this car. Jon

    Any Model X's delivered in Eastern Canada Yet?

    I received my Sig X here in St. John's on Monday. No issues, but have suddenly become busy with work, and thus have not had a chance to take half of my family (including my wife) a ride yet. I don't expect to see any other Model X until TeslaXCanada gets here later this summer, as mine is...

    Very entertaining video! It looks like you made it into a fun family event and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Your children are a laugh. We too have four and are anxiously waiting for our Sig X to be shipped to NL. Our kids are a bit younger and all are in car seats of some sort...

    "Vukovich (of the Pennsylvania State Police) said he likely will cite Scaglione after he completes his investigation, but he declined to specify the charge." There is more detail to come in this story.

    Is anyone else hating the auto door open upon keyfob unlock?

    I would suggest submitting a feature request / bug report via the request button. This has apparently been quite effective for other issues. Thanks for the heads up. Jon

    Congratulations! I have to echo the sentiment of what a great crowd the Montreal team are. I was very well treated in all respects and given ample time to chat with anyone I needed to. The car is fantastic. Nothing of concern, all details were fine. Anxiously waiting for it to be...

    I am booked to be at the Montreal SC Saturday morning to "meet" my Sig X. They will be shipping it to me after that. If anyone is around and want to say hello, do so. I may be a little distracted, but it would be nice to see some other Tesla owners. Cheers, Jon

    We are going to be looking at sharing visits from Tesla Rangers with the other Tesla owners here. We are also thinking we will make a camping trip each year and combine that with dropping into the service center. Hopefully we won't have an issue that disables the car, but we'll deal with that...

    That would be mine. :) I will be coming in to "meet" it at some point before having it shipped to NL. I'll let you know when I'll be by. Jon
