    2023 upgrade to a bigger rear screen?

    I just did this my self on my 2022 model x plaid and everything worked great. I followed the you tube video on page 9 of this thread. The only difference is being the video is for a model s and I have a model x plaid is that you must also take off the rear cup holders under the rear screen. Also...

    Which tires did your refresh Model X come with?

    I wish they did but those are the 600 tread wear all season hankook ion evos. I want the 300 tread wear summer hankook ion evos which they do make a 255/45/20 for the front but they do not make a model x rear size yet.

    Which tires did your refresh Model X come with?

    My 2022 model x plaid with 20 inch rims came with the summer tires Michelin latitude sport 3. They lasted 15k miles and I’m my second set. Because of the high performance of this car I don’t want to run all seasons I’m hopping the hankook ion suv summer tires comes with with our size soon as I...

    parallel universe: assume $ is not an issue (gas, payments, etc.), would you still insist driving MX/MXP SUV over say BMW X7 SUV 100% fully optioned ?

    hell yes only because of the model x plaid. The performance of my model x plaid is unmatched by any other suv and its a great daily for my family with 3 kids. The plaid is what did it to finally make me switch to a EV. Before the plaid came out the thing that turn me off about EV the most...

    Is it really super dangerous to go over the 120pound weight limit of the stock tow hitch? I’m about 30-50 pounds over.

    this is towing a trailer. We are not talking about towing a trailer with wheels. We all know the model x can tow up to a 5,000 pound trailer with a max 500 pounds of tongue weight on the hitch. Were talking about the hitch being rated to a crazy low120 pounds of vertical weight for bike...

    Is it really super dangerous to go over the 120pound weight limit of the stock tow hitch? I’m about 30-50 pounds over.

    So…. Back to the original question for my 2022 model x plaid with 20 inch wheels. Is over loading the 120 pound limit of the stock hitch with my e-bikes and rack by 40 pounds over the 120 pound limit still relatively safe. I’m leaning towards yes and I see so many people doing this.

    Is it really super dangerous to go over the 120pound weight limit of the stock tow hitch? I’m about 30-50 pounds over.

    i understand the warrant issue but if i do a search it seems like that are many many people that have used the oem tow hitch to mount 2 eikes or a cargo box and high exceeded the 120 pounds weight limit by about 30-80 pounds and how done this for a long time with out issue. If you think about...

    Is it really super dangerous to go over the 120pound weight limit of the stock tow hitch? I’m about 30-50 pounds over.

    It’s kind of crazy how the oem tow hitch is only rated to 120 pounds for things like bike racks and cargo hitch boxes. I have seen some people say they have been fine going over this limit. I just starts making small trips with 2 e-bikes and I do feel a little nervous. I always take the...

    since you don't care about performance just get the 100d. The 100kwh batteries are known to be very reliable not so much for the 90kwh battery. Also the performance models are knows to be not as reliable vs the non performance because of some coolant leaking issue found on their larger size...

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    Of course a model x plaid is not as fast as a model s plaid. The s plaid is a low 9 second 150mph+ car Where as the model x plaid is a high 9 second 140mph+ 1/4 miles car. But The model x plaid still should pull much harder than any normal stock gas super car.
