For the first year after I got my Tesla, I proclaimed to everybody who'd listen: "I'll never get a car other than a Tesla again!".
For the second year, I proclaimed: "I'll never get a car other than an EV again!"
Today I drove into my driveway with my brand spanking new GMC Sierra Denali 2500 that will guzzle 15mpg of your finest diesel for the next 10 years.
This could (and should) have been a Model X - if only Tesla had either:
a) Delivered a Model X with a 10'000lbs tow capacity like promised
-or-
b) Not promised a 10'000lbs tow capacity originally, in which case I wouldn't have bought a travel trailer which required a 10'000lbs tow capacity in the first place.
I don't know why Tesla has to overpromise like this. The Model S is great and I would have bought it without the overpromises at that time (which there were plenty of as well). Tesla is like a teenager who can't stop lying about everything, even though there is no reason whatsoever to do so.
