Terrific video man!

Our 2019 100D (Pre Raven) has been amazing for past 4 yrs, put 50k on it. Just needed a 12V after 44months (warranty) and tires around 45k, otherwise has been SOLID! Now just need to sell it. Squeezed in a $79,990 “Tax Edition” Model X right before end of 2023. So far the 2023 has been awesome, none of the issues you described. Great video!

I traded my X to take advantage of transferring FSD to the new car. Love the new X! It Supercharges unbelievably fast! Just finished a 2000 mile road trip, and it worked great! Pro tip: when I traded, I configured my new X, got a price, but then checked to see if there were any “inventory” cars available. And there was! I was able to find one with EXACTLY the configuration I wanted (color, wheels, 5 seats, round steering wheel) for $10,000 less than ordering one, plus it was available immediately!

@@adairmartin thank you for letting me know. ive been toying with the idea of a model X since june and saw some discounts back then. havent seen anything discounted after the drop aside from specs with the ridiculously overpriced 22s my build is set to be here within a week, so im glad to hear you havent been having issues. hoping its perfect when i get it so i dont have to reject it and miss out on fsd transfer. my 3 had tons of problems and everyone on the internet always talks about problems on the X

great breakdown, thank you.

I really appreciate your videos! The camera work and narration are among the best of these types of channels. With the huge price drop, I have ordered a Model X. I've had a M3 and MY (my current car). Each has had a few minor issues. However, they have never compromised the safety of the car or left me stranded. I've had that experience with new gas powered vehicles! I only would consider a Tesla because of the superior charging experience and the incredible software. I am renting FSD. While expensive, I enjoy the heck out of using it everywhere. Keep up the great work!

Great video! Although i want a X, I think it would make more sense for me to keep my MYP and add a used S until i need to upgrade my Y and hopefully they would've added the comfort features to the Y by that point.

I have a 2018 Model X with currently 222,000 relatively problem free miles. I have the 22in wheels, but my tires only had to be replaced at around 70k miles. Never had issues with the Falcon doors. At 190k I had to replace bushings on the front driver side suspension. That's about it. Unfortunately, while on the freeway, a truck's wheel came off and caused a fair amount of damage. Due to the high mileage, my insurance declared the car totalled. I'll be getting another Model x, hopefully that lasts over 200 thousand miles as well. Model x is well worth the money for performance and flexing 😁

Our September 2022 MXLR has had many issues to a point that we submitted a buyback request. Aside from all the issues we had, it is a great car. We love road trips with it. Only thing I would say is, don't expect to have a problem-free Model X.

I test drove a model x and was really annoyed by the gears now being on the screen. Is there a way to control them in the steering wheel?

We sold our 2017 Model X 100D last year… absolutely loved that car. Bought a Model Y Performance due to the prices of a new Model X. However, while we love the Model Y and it is the best in its segment in terms of price, space and overall package, it is a big downgrade if you have gotten used to all the extras you get in a Model X. Miss the screen in front of the driver, miss the bigger seats, miss the falcon doors (amazing in tight parking spaces with kids or stuff in the back), miss the regular electric doors in the front (I still put my foot on the brake a year later expecting my door to close 😢), and we miss the extra space. We might have to save up for a new Model X in a couple of years, nothing in the electric market beats the overall package you get for that price imo.

May I ask why you sold it? I’m looking around at used 2016-18 Model X’s since the price gap for newer ones are too much. Should I go ahead and buy one? I currently have a Mazda CX9. The falcon doors and space is what is attracting me but I heard Teslas battery doesn’t do well in the winter. Just scared of going away from gas.

Good info

We have a 2022 Model X Plaid and have a little over 29k miles on it (Took delivery on September of 2022). Home is off grid (100% solar) we have saved literally thousands on gas. So far after 1.5 years of ownership we have saved tons of cash in comparison. Have had Tesla EVs for 5 years and have a total savings of over $35k in saving for gas between the two (based on how much we drive it). Fortunately, have not had any issues with any of the teslas in the past 5 years and battery degradation has been miraculously 0 for both cars... Model 3 had some paint issues (Which tesla fixed), Y was perfect (no issues at all) and the Model X we had was just a falcon wing door alignment but that's it. Most maintenance we have had so far has just been Tires.

Does 3 row leg room is same as Model Y? Planning to upgrade to X but my main question is about 3 Rd row sitting. By paying 90k we should be getting enough leg room than Model Y 7 seater

Indeed

A friend bought the MX soon after its first version was released and he still enjoys it. I don't know his repair experience but those early ones may have had more than today's issues. I decided on the MY and received it in March 2022 and it has performed very well. With the all season Michelin tires, it has handled Colorado winters, torrential rain, high winds and summer heat absolutely flawlessly. I don't need the extra room in the MX and am also glad I skipped the falcon doors for their complexity. I would not choose the MX even with today's HW4 as I still don't need those extra features. The cost is still not worth the issues to my mind so overall, if I were to trade in the MY, I would choose the refreshed MY once it is released especially with HW4 once it has matured a couple years.

I had pre-ordered a Fisker Ocean Extreme and have been waiting on that vehicle for about a year. I had recently gotten the notice that the vehicle was moving to production to be built when I learned that the Model X had been reduced to the point where it qualified for the tax credit. I ended up deciding to forfeit my $1,000 USD deposit in the Fisker and decided to go with the Model X instead because of the insane value that it brings at the reduced price point with the 7.5k tax credit. Your videos helped me make the decision. Thanks for the content!

Have you looked into seat covers that would work with the 2023 Model X so they don't interfere with the cooling and heating. Can you set the suspension so it stays on one setting.I agree with you about the horn on the steering wheel. Don't know why they did that.

I rented a model X plaid on turo for a road trip. I loved the experience however hearing the falcon wing doors squeaking and rattling every time you go over a bump seems like a big miss. And the driver display would randomly just shut off for no reason and there was nothing you could do to get it back on other than hope. At these price points they need to sort these things out.

My 2021 Model 3 LR had both its front seats squeaked horribly. The passenger one ended up being replaced as it was broken from the factory and the drivers seat was fixed in service appointments, but it took 3 appointments to get fixed. Nothing is more frustrating than a squeaky seat!

Love the yoke because you can hang your hands on it. You have to practice using turn signals. We upgraded from 2018 M3 because it’s noisy and the X feels twice as good. Falcon doors are awesome just needs coordinated announces opening and closing. We keep cars over 100k and way after warranty so fyi we found out one headlight is $2400 😳.

They didn't do anything for me on the paint. My option was to leave it as it is or have it repainted. I am not going to go down a route that includes repainting anything

A selling point for me is the speedometer. The removal of the signal stalks ( and other buttons we are all used to) represents a no go, as much as the yolk did. Can only imagine the time Hertz has spent teaching people to operate these cars just to get them out of the lot. Sure I can learn, and I may be able to teach my wife, but as a senior, .... why? Do not have the interest, spent all my energy over the years figuring out DOS and dip switch settings and generations of printer and video and phone charging cables. Progress I had no choice but to follow. But, I can still get an EV I can get into that have the controls that have worked well for many decades (while trying to remember not to put gas in it). Difference for the sake of being different is a sales gimmick that probably best works on the young. Big Tesla fan for all the other reasons though.

Great video. So far (fingers crossed) I have not had the squeaks and rattles you mentioned. Many of the panels are not aligned properly, but that doesn't bother me. At the tail end of my free FSD it was finally enabled. After several hair-raising mishaps, I don't trust it and won't bother with it until the software for Hardware 4 catches up with Hardware 3. The noise deadening feature makes it's own noises. And I was only slightly bummed that I paid more for it than current buyers. I have had the same experience on buying and selling houses. I love the car. I wouldn't go back to the bumpy Model Y or Model 3. I am enjoying the free supercharging I get for three years. And I also really like the extra features you mentioned. I am used to the turn signals, but I don't like searching for the horn button. I'm glad Tesla fixed that on the new Model 3.

not for some time. But eventually, yea I can see either a new Model X or a new name for a replacement vehicle to the X

I’ve owned a Model S (leased) which I gave back for a Model X (pre-Raven) in 2018. I love my Tesla, but I wouldn’t do the Model X again simply because of the gull wing doors. They are cool and they get attention, but they are also a real pain. I’ve lived in Tampa, Orlando, and Nashville and while I’m not comparing Apples to Apples the Orlando Service Center is hands down the worst service center I’ve been to from a customer perspective. I’ve had a lot of issues with my Model X from delivery paint issues to wrong configuration. I’ve been locked out of the vehicle twice because the 12 v battery died with no warning. I had the HV battery fail and needed replacement in the middle of the pandemic which took 3 months. It also took more effort than it should have to get Tesla to make it right. All that said though I’d still pick a Tesla every day of the week. The service side needs work, but in some centers you would never know this is an issue such as Nashville (at least in my experience). If you are in Orlando it is a huge issue. They can fix those things though and I view them as a temporary inconvenience. I do worry about all these companies adopting the Tesla chargers and Superchargers getting congested, but that really doesn’t affect me too much since 90% of my charging is at home. But as I said, I can’t imagine my next car not being a Tesla.

Would love to see a comparison between this and the Rivian R1S.

how is the road noise compared from the Y to the X? I feel like I can hear everything in my Y.

X is for sure quieter than the Y

Did they fix all the issues with your vehicle ?

I got a used X and I am definitely trading it in for a Cyber Truck. The falcon doors look really cool, but it is at a cost.

Bought my X 7 seat, 22s, 2 weeks before the price drop. A $10k drop for me. Hurts but damn the vehicle is great. Even after my service appointment issues being fixed. Added all around tint this week. Wrap coming at the end of the month. Love the yoke

6-7 more years. It will depreciate another 40-50k in value.

Great video so sad Tesla does not get all these issues together. They must add Quality people to make changes, there is a lot of competition Tesla I guess needs to loose customers in order to get better.

I think this could be the best price to get it. Now, they might have the 2024 models in the future. Problem is not able to add option and get the 7500 credit :(. I will wait until the last week of this quarter and see if they will drop even more. Plus referral program cut to 500 bucks

always possible, but know that the Model X, surprisingly, is the only Tesla with an extended lead time right now. So demand is pretty high for production.

Which website track your car price?

I currently have a 2022 Y that I pretty much paid for almost the same amount that this X is currently at. I don't quality for the rebate but I was thinking of actually trading my Y for the X. I figured if I'm paying this much on my Y, I might as well upgrade and pay pretty much the same thing. I haven't worked out the total numbers yet or the entire process of the trade-in but let me know your thoughts if this is even a good idea.

All up to you. I tried to share all the intimate details of X ownership vs a Y.

I have pretty much the exact Model X and I picked it up on 3/31/23, WOW. The only real difference is I have the 5 seat version, which I wanted because I have even more trunk room and leg room in back seat. So I can carry 4 golfers and bags very easy. I also don’t have any rattles or other issues with strange warnings. I did just notice that a front sensor is missing, and the trim on front passenger side wheel has come loose, but that is probably from car wash or something like that. Service is very fast where I live and didn’t even have to wait a week.

PS. I love the yoke. It is way more comfortable, especially on long highway drives, and I used to ride a motorcycle so the turn signal buttons were easy for me to get used to. I do struggle with the horn button as you do, but other than that I love the yoke and no stalks….

Nice congrats

I loved this video, especially with the comparison between the Model X and comparable ICE vehicle in size. One factor you didn't cover is that the Audi Q7 would've traveled 9,000 miles a lot faster, with a lot less headache, getting a real 550 miles of range and taking 10 minutes to fill up.

@BeardedTeslaGuy

But remember that’s 10 minutes to fill up every time. The Tesla only takes you waiting when you are road tripping. I plug in the garage, never go to the gas station to fill ip

No paint issues with my October 2022 Austin made Model Y. However I paid $9,000 more than the current price for the same car. Changes I would like see in the Model Y will probably be addressed in the Juniper. I would like 430 miles of range though.

Take it to a detailer. They all have something

So how many miles per charge at 80% And how many miles at 100%

Have Model Y leased going to end Feb 2024, thinking on X next or Range Rover for 100K

the wood trim looks really nice on the inside, really posh looks

So how does any car company lower prices as expenses (inflation) ramped up 🤔 Cutting costs

Also noticed model Y hatch will open right into your garage door.

@BeardedTeslaGuy

it will if you dont set the height. To do so, open the hatch and stop it, then manually open it to the desired height. Press and hold the open button until you hear a beep. Now your hatch will open at that height every time.

Thanks for your review. You are totally right that the X is expensive and you can get cheaper alternatives. But if you would like to buy a car in this area, you can only take the X or the new Q8 55. I chose the X because of the price drop, in the other situation I would bought the Q8. Possible for the future a used one could be a solution. If you would like to go really cheap, you need to take a Dacia. In Germany under 6000€ (ModelX 100T€, Q8 80T€ plus options around 100T€ and more). Smal car without anything and low fuel consumption.

What does that do for Gap Insurance. I think my credit union said they would only cover like 30% negative equity when we totaled our MY last year. We are planning to get an X for Christmas. Of our M3 and MY will hold. Only Tesla people ❤

no clue on Gap coverage because I dont buy it on any of my cars.

I have 2014 s 85 free supercharger for life Tesla just texted me that i can transfer it to any new car. As long as the new car is under my name ill have free supercharger. You think i should get the X?

I have been driving model x for 4 years now the design is excellent but has a lot of quirks which can be easily ironed out one of the biggest one is the frunk lid is very paperish thin it's ridiculously cheap for 90k I paid why doesn't it have a closing actuator ? Another rather simple request is Tesla do not update the app so the original gps memorization of the pot holes can continue which is a great feature but they removed it, another issue is the AC turns on both front and back at once and most of the time this ginormous car has no body at the back this can really increase the range if both the front and back don't turn on at once, I really recommend putting multiple charging ports on this big car for convenience of the driver, also for 90k I really expected a premium charger with cable management robotics but nothing like that which doesn't take away from the supercharger network which is fantastic but at home I'm struggling with a cord that's pretty unfuturistic for such a futuristic car, the car just stops in middle of the road dead if you accidentally press over the air updates that is very dangerous Tesla can just call me and I can draw them a wireless charger circuit it's very easy to do and it will eliminate all the cords etc the future is certainly cooler than we expect if the voice ofncustomer is heard

I just ordered a Tesla Model X (11/10/23). I’m concerned about the car after watching your video today. Can you explain why you accepted the delivery of your car with paint issues? You can’t fix that correctly, like you said, unless, you re-paint the whole vehicle. I would be horrified if there is something in the fine print that allows Tesla to deliver cars in this condition. If I were to get your car, in that condition, I would have tried to reject the car and wait for a new one. Why did you accept this? There is no way to fix it later. Please explain to me why you did this. Honestly, like your headline says. Thanks for your video thumbs 👍

@@BeardedTeslaGuy I drive a lot early morning (probably 70% of my miles) and I just run the fan, not the AC. That saves a lot of electrons.. My commute usually averages 240 wh/mile as traffic is often backed up and without AC, that means I'm running super efficient.. On a 80 mph road trip with AC, I get 350 - 370 wh/mile but I don't do a lot of road trips. I do 1 pedal driving as well. No need to drive aggressive in day to day driving. Aggressive only when I'm racing down in Mexico 😀or at the track.

More likely to cancel the X and S than come out with a new version. It’s an ever shrinking part of their business and nothing but a hassle for them, especially with the much lower profits with huge price cuts.

no, there's no work being done on a refresh to the X/S right now, and it takes quite some time to do a redesign.

They moved the horn to the center so Tesla is listening. On my 2022 MYP, my lifetime wh/mi after 17+K miles is 276 and that is after 3 long road trips. Anything over 300 is not the norm for me, so 370+ is heart-stopping. But that's a by-product of the 22" tires/wheels. I'd save the $$$ and stick with the base 19s.
