    First Refreshed Model X Deliveries in July

    Out of curiosity, what ICE cars do you have?

    Good Time to Sell

    I know. It's insane. We just sold ours for about $9k more than we would've gotten for it had we sold six months ago. I think it's partly a function of used car demand, but also a function of 0 new Model X availability. I'm sure prices will come down once the new ones are released.

    “Classic” Model X compared to Model X refresh

    I'm also a happy camper with my '18 100D. Remains to be seen whether the new steering wheel (and lack of stalks) will be a usability problem. Also agree that the screen in the back is a nightmare waiting to happen if you have kids. That area (with the cupholders) already gets terrorized right...

    Anyone thinking of switching to a refresh Model X?

    Having owned cars from every major German luxury brand and now having owned a Model X for 2.5 years, I can assure you that the X feels nothing like a Kia.

    If you had a do-over...

    We've got an X and a 3, but if we were in the market now, we'd probably get an S. I don't think anyone sees a major interior or exterior refresh coming soon and those are the only things that would give me pause. The internals are very, very new.

    Is it me, or is the Model Y really ugly?

    I can't bring myself to like the Y either. In certain trims, like the performance in blue, it doesn't look so bad. But the garden variety looks generic, a little Prius-like in its profile and not sleek. I never loved the 3, but next to the Y it looks much sleeker. The S is still my favorite...

    Model X IRS 100% Deduction “Hummer Loophole” - 2018 Edition

    The real question is what exactly are you driving it for when you say you're driving it for business. There's a lot of abuse of this particular loophole, I'm sure. If you're just commuting to the office, that won't cut it.

    Model X Wannabe: How to convince the wife?

    So what exactly is her objection? If the finances permit and it's a nice upgrade from what you currently have, why is she saying no? I had to fight this battle, too, but my wife loved the layout of the six seater and it's way easier to get kids in and out with the falcon wing doors. She's loved...

    Postscript - 2,000 Mile (and Back) Road Trip with Two Kids

    I have both a 3 and a pre-Raven X. Estimates are probably a bit conservative, but charging speed is definitely slower than on the 3, which is to be expected. That said, I’ve taken many, many trips in the X and would be hesitant to do the same with the 3. The X is amazing for traveling with a...

    Spotify hangs Media Center

    yes, this works perfectly and it boggles my mind that it seems like a lot of people have given up on Spotify because they didn’t utilize this simple fix. Annoying but works. Also, sometimes songs may fail to load because another device of yours somewhere else is already playing music using the...

    Elon Confirms S & X Are Chopped Liver

    I agree with another poster that if the S and X aren’t updated, we might have to go back to a gas car for one of our two cars. Not ideal, but we’re not getting another X at this point.

    Some people don't understand

    I’m in the other corner of Ohio and there are enough Teslas out here that only the Model 3 owners wave, and even then most of them don’t. The X and S owners have never once waved.

    How does every clean their model 3? Is Automatic car wash a bad idea?

    I’m in that same boat. I’m past caring about micro scratches that no one will notice. I get a waxing two or three times a year and then use reputable automatic car washes in between. Car looks great.
