    "Tesla" not listed on Tesla Trade-In

    We received a higher trade in from Tesla than we did with CarMax when we traded in a HW1 2016 MX last year for a new MX. Tried to sell privately, but Tesla even beat all offers. Smooth trade in also.

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    255wh/mile. 25,000 miles. September 2018 Stealth M3. 18” aeros 100%. 1.5 mile in town commute and many 1-6 hour trips. Likely down to 250 wh/m by the two year mark, as cold weather in winter uses much more energy on short daily commute and, as noted, I bought in the fall.

    The M3 really drives like what they say

    For me, a slow learner, the drive continues to amaze me. I liken it to kayaking. To get strapped in to a kayak appropriately has your every move and shift affect the motion of the kayak. You become one with the kayak. Driving the model 3 is just like that. The, new, full regen braking and...

    What the $#@$# is going on with Model X custom orders

    We just received word today that our car will be ready right after Labor Day. Ordered a model X white on white, long range, seven Seat on 8/4/19. I still don’t have a VIN, however.

    Anyone received delivery of 2019 'Raven' Refresh?

    Ordered White on White, Model X, long range, FSD on 8/4/19. Just received text saying that it would be another 2 weeks before scheduling delivery. Trading in HW1 2016 MX 90D if we don’t get the price we want before delivery. Frustrated as we had planned a good trip September 4th. Thought the...

    2016 Model X White 6 Seater AP2.0 CP0

    I suggest you look at my 2016 MX 90D listed below. A few more miles on it, but is a 90D and has XPel on the front, OpiCoat Pro, unlimited Supercharging, extended warranty and extended Service all transferable for $61k. In very good shape. Silver with white perforated seats. Much better deal.

    232 Wh/mi. I’m obsessed.

    I have P3-, delivered 10/18. Absolutely love Her. Short commune. Poor energy usage in the No VA winters at 286/m. With spring weather really improving and hope/expect to get it down below rated 250wh/m this summer. Hate to use the word ‘Obsessed ‘, but others (wifey) might. I drive normally...

    Is Performance Worth It?

    Although I love the acceleration, if I had to do it over again today, I would NOT get the Performance version. In all reality, I would get the LR rear wheel drive, if it were available. The only reason I bought the Performance was at the time, I get unlimited Surpercharging for the life of the...

    Envy

    To @dmurphy: We have both 2 yo HW1 Model X (3 months prior to HW2!) and I now have a M3 PAWD- and I much prefer the M3. Much more fun car! Except for the slightly smaller size, it is a runner car to drive. Much more nimble. I hope you enjoy it. Love the exhilaration of the drive and the...

    Model 3 Dilemma

    We switched from Prius to HW1 Model X 2 years ago when my wife got ‘the new car’. I drove the 2010 Prius for 2 years and then pulled the trigger on the Model 3. Once you go Tesla, you NEVER go back! It is just too NICE of a driving experience. You’re family, however, may hate (will envy)...

    Going between Tesla's regenerative braking and ICE (stick shift) braking

    Before I bought my Model3, I had a Prius. I used to beg my wife to let me go to the grocery store for her so that I could drive her Model X. It is just so much more fun to drive Tesla’s one pedal driving. Now I don’t need to adjust my thinking with my Model 3!!

    Picking up P3D+ in two weeks and it's suppose to snow, what should I do?

    Enjoy the ride home with the stock tires. It’s a great car, just be a little careful with your new baby. You shouldn’t have any problems.

    How will Model 3 improve?

    BUY NOW!!!! You will never look back! Once you drive a Tesla Model 3 (our other is a 2017 X HW1) for a week, you will NEVER look back. It makes driving fun again. No other car like it. Mine is a P-. V9 loaded overnight- can’t wait to try the new features. This just does NOT happen anywhere else!

    Future Tesla owner

    We have had a Model X for 23 months with perforated white ‘vegan’ seats. The seats have held up very well. Still fell fresh and new after 44,000 miles. No stains. Clean up very well.

    To Buy an X or Not Now?

    1)- Tesla is FAR ahead with Battery production and battery costs. 2)- Supercharger network is exploding! No other system is even within sight. Traveling with a Tesla is pleasure. Supercharging system takes the worry out of Range Anxiety. For these two reasons, Tesla will continue to lead the...

    Charge to 100% on Road Trip

    We have 25,000 miles in 11 months on our 90X. Have charged consistently to 90% nightly with about 8-10 episodes to 100% for travel. We are still getting 232 miles at 90%, UNCHANGED since purchase. Charging to 100% occasionally seems to rebalance the batteries well. Very happy so far!

    Charging Reduced From 40A to 30A

    I had the same problem, and have NOT had any further problems since installing an HPWC in place of the 14-50 outlet- on the SAME circuit. Have not seen this problem with the travel cord on a 14-50 outlet recently installed at river cottage.

    What is the Wh/mile number to achieve Rated Range on an X?

    How great of an effect does temperature play in range? Have only had my 90D MX since end of July. Am wondering what winter temperatures in Northern Virginia will have on the efficiency. (Around freezing). Thanks.

    Wall charger button stopped working.

    I suggest going to a Supercharger or a local destination charger.

    Front sonar side sensors

    Received my wife's X90D 2 weeks ago. She and I just took a trip from Northern Virginia to Michigan, just above Detroit, and back. (No, We didn't 'carry' when in Michigan- but did note that there is ONLY one set of Superchargers in the WHOLE state). 10+ hours each way. I love the car! (coming...

    Xpel in NoVA?

    Just picking up new 90D MX next week at Tyco/Tysons! Anybody have experience with Xpel and Opticoat in NoVA and have recommendations? Thanks.
