    Electric Frunk, why not?

    I may be wrong here but I recall something about the X not having an electric Frunk due to regulations. Seems the Ford F-150 lightening has one. Any reason Tesla does not, or does the new plaid have one?

    Roadtrip/supercharging/navigation ' wants'.

    Did a couple of longer trips this summer , 1400km, and 1000km. Overall as usual, driving the Model X on the highway is fantastic. Solid vehicle with immense acceleration making passing a breeze. However the following range from mildly annoying to frustrating. 1. Navigation will not re-route...

    Canoo

    Pretty cool design. Looks like it would be great for many day to day functions. Can skip to 11.40 if just want quick run-down of features. <iframe width="800" height="450" src="" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture"...

    Please do not highlight ratings in red.

    Seems faster. one thing I do not like is the fact names of who liked, disagreed, etc is in red. Draws the eye to it, but really irrelevant, unless of course you are in middle school.

    Windshield defog help

    I bought a 2016 used model X. Great vehicle. However, the windshield literally takes 45 minutes to Defog. I have read all the threads on the defog vs defrost button. I have tried to turn on AC and play with recirculate but nada, no improvements. If you hit defrost, that takes over control of...

    US vs Canada cost

    After exchange rate counted for, a model Y is 12k more expensive for base version to buy in Canada vs USA. No wonder tesla does not allow imports.

    Trip Planning Help

    Next month we are going to visit my in-laws, which we tend to do every summer. Catch is this summer we are using our P90X, and the trip is about 950km. Before we bought the 2016 model X, we knew the major drawback would be long distance travel, however we were up for just dividing the trip up...

    Non-Tech stock discussion/recommendations

    I tried to get the tech thread title changed for inclusivity, but alas that was rejected harder than Elon trying to take Tesla private. So this can be the thread for non-tech stocks. I really have no suggestions currently. Over the years, Costco, and Waste Management have done really well...

    Would you buy a 2016 used X not from Tesla?

    I have recently seen a Model X that I am interested in. Of course I phoned the dealer (3 hour trip away) who literally knew nothing about the vehicle. As a fairly avid follower of Tesla, I am hesitant to purchase one not from Tesla, due to possible issues that may arise. I imagine repairs on...

    Buying Used Via Tesla

    Used Model X Canadian Pricing

    Banning Shorts

    Despite it being summer, the ban on shorts continues. Reality-banned. Shortseller-banned. I speak out, as in my humble opinion, there is a double standard here on this board, and it seems to be getting worse, although is far from new. I have mentioned this before, but some prolific posters...

    Rear End... Hmmmmmm

    I really like the car overall, and the controversial front end. The back however I find boring. I find the headlights, although they flow with the trunk lines, give a strange look as they are not straight. I also prefer narrow tai lights like most of Porsches recent designs. The thick tai lights...

    Travel-Dengue Question

    Hi there, Firstly, sorry to interrupt the Tesla information flow. My family plans on going to the Big Island this month, and although there is no official travel advisory, I was wondering what the 'locals' are saying with respect to the Dengue Fever outbreak? I tend to be a skeptic and...

    Mercedes-Benz GLE 550e Plug-In Hybrid SUV

    If only the range was above 18 miles. Yep, you read that right, rumor mill has it at 18. I do not drive far on a daily basis, and seriously would consider this over the X, if it had a 40 mile or so all electric range. 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE 550e Plug-In Hybrid SUV Arrives This Fall

    Model X nose cone

    I know I am probably in the minority here, and the chances of a different nose cone compared to the model s/alpha x are slim to none, but would love to see a different nose cone. I think the model s exterior is beautiful in nearly every way except the front view, and I hope they tweek it...

    I figure I will post this here. Below is a PM i initially sent to George on this forum, and subsequently with minor changes to Tesla themsleves. While I acknowledge this forum is not "official" and maybe a PM was uncalled for, it was sent with the best of intentions. I find it unfortunate that...

    Vancouver Test Drive Event. My Impressions ( P85+ content)

    Well that was fun. Over the weekend I had a chance to go over to Vancouver and test drive the model S. I will start of with a few negatives of the experience, albeit nitpicky ones and then move towards the positive. The first negative was the timing. They only gave a week notice and my...

    Model X reservation number inquiry...

    Hi there, I reserved my Model X on April 22, 2012. Unfortunately it wound up in the US pile, and I had reservation number 905. After a while (part my fault to realize error, and part Tesla in delays getting back to me ) I finally got a new number today for Canada, that being number 74. I am...

    Options you would like to see in the Model X

    I have been actively following the model s discussions, even though I am an X reservation holder. There are definitely some things I would really like to see at this price point, (which I am unsure the S has).... and it seems Tesla employees sometimes frequent this site, so thought it might be...
