Yesterday I emailed [email protected] to ask about "Chargergate" and whether or not we will have the option to upgrade Production X's to 72 amps (instead of 48) for faster destination charging.
I received a phone call this morning from the same Inside Sales Rep that contacted gordonbremer recently. They recognized their own email that I'd appended to mine, and got a laugh out of that. If any reservation holder would like contact info, please PM me.
This is what I learned from this this rep:
The cordial Inside Sales rep provided their contact info and encouraged me to call to see if they can provide clarification whenever there is some rumor going around on the forums. They ended the call by thanking me for supporting Tesla.
If you're a production reservation holder and are interested in having the option to upgrade to a 72 amp charger, please email [email protected]! They appear to be listening to their future customers.
Thanks,
Russ
PS. They started the call by saying they verified my reservation (I provided my RN number) and "your deposit is good". (I hope so! It's been sitting in their bank since just after Noon on Feb. 10th, 2012! LOL)

This is what I learned from this this rep:
- Tesla's #1 focus right now is ramping up production of the already-configured Model X Signatures.
- "There are a couple hundred Sig reservation holders that haven't configured at all."
- "Tesla is delaying Production configuration to give them a chance to do so."
- Tesla will be pushing out demo Model X's to the stores to give unconfigured Sig's a chance to check them out and configure if they wish.
- "Expect an update on when you will be able to configure your production Model X in late December." (I'm P83 so first batch)
- "Many people have called in wanting 72 amp charging. Signatures will be delivered with it as standard. There's been a lot of talk around the office about it, but no final Production decision yet. We hope that it will be offered on the Production model as an option as you described in your email."
