    MX stuff

    We had both the kids in town Wed. Daughter came into vote.

    going to dinner....all 4 of us (grown ass adults) were comfortably riding in the MX.

    felt just like the Tundra...well....a lot smoother.



    my only qualm.....it REALLY needs a rear center console. I like to ride with my elbow resting on something.

    Couldn't pass up this one in inventory, $4500 off with 0%/60mo.
    Still blows me away buying a Tesla, 10 minutes and you're out the door.

    Neither our Tundra nor our LX have ever been back to the dealer. Granted we bought the LX with 149k miles on it. But its service history is super clean.

    Both are paid off. We’ll buy a Tesla for my wife, and I’ll daily our 187k mile LX (for a while at least; might become my oldest’s first vehicle in a few years) and build the Tundra out with gears and new suspension.

    Paying for gas never bothered me much, but it’ll be nice putting the majority of our city miles on an EV.

    You wont, especially with Tesla. Its exactly what @NWPirate described. I ordered mine online, went in, inspected my vehicle, signed for my title and walked out lol. LOVE IT. No negotiating. No up-sells, no pressure, nada

    Whatever this forum told me to do
    this.

    I've done it twice.

    EVERYONE in the process is friendly.

    dealerships suck.

    and...

    I love hearing from folks that buy a Tesla.
    It's always a good story.
    the ownership experience is always positive.

    Only one negative from someone I know. Tesla let her car bake in the sun with whatever soap and water. It took me probably a combined 7-8 hours to get the water spots off her brand new paint with some heavy cutting compound and pads; and then I polished it to make it shine after. She’s super thankful. And no, I posted her pic before here, @Azblue - def not fuck-able to my standards.

    I remember that one. I was proud of you for making the effort to do so, but disappointed with the result.
