Great video and always love the Tesla banter between the two of you. Very easy to watch and follow. I agree with Jenny that much of the problems you experienced were likely specific to your particular vehicle and also agree with you that the 2016 model is far more troubled than current ones. Having owned the 2016 MX for 2 years and then the 2018 MX for the last 2 years it is clear to us that everything from squeaks, leaks, sensor issues, road noise even the performance/longevity of the 90kwh packs vs the 100 kWh have all dramatically improved. Our X still has its issues and part of me wonders how much more improvement the 2020 and beyond models have made. We get lots of questions from potential X buyers asking about 2016 and 2017 models over ‘18 and above. We always try to guide them to the latter years as we do with 2012 or ‘13 Model S buyers. To me, those 4 years are on the do not buy list when it comes to used Tesla’s but again I know plenty who’ve had good experiences with those years as well. Thanks for always being transparent with your Tesla experiences!

Nice reply. Waiting on X. Due to be delivered in March. I would be quite happy if the FWD were changed to normal doors but they also look very cool. Hopefully they won’t take any of the kids out. 😬

Picked up my 2021 on December 10. Perfect in every way so far, from body to seats to road noise to speeeed to entertainment. No kids (64) so I don't use the falcon doors as much.

@caraddict8942 3 года назад

You know, I get that the Model Y makes sense. I canceled my Model Y reservation and took delivery of an X. I can’t say I regretted it because I have a large family that the Model Y cannot accommodate, even with the third row. Yes, it gains so much attention most times, but in my area almost everyone has a Tesla, so it really isn’t an issue. If I were to buy new again, I would have to buy the X. It’s the only option for large families... I doubt Tesla will discontinue it. Your deal is decent. I mean you could have bought a base 2021 X with autopilot.

Ben, I feel your pain .. our previous 2017 model X also had so many issues and for the cost spending over $130+k and having so many issues really put us off, we recently traded it in for Audi eTron and my wife just love having normal rear door again, also not having rain and snow issues when opening the rear doors, the kids normally open the doors them self and even when the half open still water would get in not at bad but still, best fix was to clean off the top before opening the doors .. I wish they had made the model Y interior identical to the model X .. but keeping the normal rear doors..

I sold it because the outdated battery, slower charging, and other tech when compared to the Model 3/Y. I had no issues with my doors, but only had it for six months and 10k miles.

I have a 7 seater 2018 Model X and haven't had any issues with the FWD or auto doors. In fact the FWD makes hauling boxes very easy. My previous SUV a BMW X5 there was no way to put a box in the center of the car. I would have to remove all items out of the back of the car and reload as boxes could not get out of the back door. With the X, it's easy! It's also easy for my Mom to get in and out of the rear of the car, she's in her 90's. Love the FWD!!!!

Watching this in April 2023. Would agree that, for those considering a 2016 Tesla model X, you do not want to buy any used Tesla with mfg date prior to 2017 due to issues in design and software upgrades! Is it that these problems are mostly in software design? 🤓🤓 Anyhoo, It's good to watch reviews two years later! Thanks!

@dan203 3 года назад

I paid $62k for a BMW 340i in 2016 and sold it in 2019, with 19k miles on it, for $28K. So don’t feel too bad about losing $20k on that Model X. :)

@QuebecTerreaTerre 3 года назад

As much as I am a Tesla fan (even if I don't have one), I believe $150.000.or even $75,000 for any car, electric or ICE is TOOOOOO much money. But if I had money to throw away ( which I don't), I would buy a Tesla because I support the values of the company: accelerate the transition to renewable energy which they do big time !

@gregdavey4261 3 года назад

In Vancouver Canada we see a ton of Model X cars on the road. Almost more common than the Model S. My buddy with two kids got one (2019 model) and loves it. I really hear you about the creaks from a car that likely had every body panel removed and re-installed for test fitting. Great Video. Super straight forward.

@ionkon 2 года назад

It's nice to know these things because most youtube creators suggest (almost "advertise") to their audience to buy a used tesla. Yet, they forget to mention that most used teslas out there have problems, they are out of warranty and you have to pay a lot of money to fix them. Here in Norway, the moment your car needs to go for a service you pay easily 1000-2000$ just for labour costs and usually if the part you replace is worth 300-400$ you pay easily 2.5 grand.

@bigvon1977 3 года назад

Great video. I had trouble with my 2016 MX. I was backing out of my driveway and my front suspension arm broke. I towed it to Tesla and they said it was a common issue. Luckily I was still under warranty. Thank God I wasn’t driving at a high speed when it happened. I ended up selling mine shortly after getting the repairs done. I love Tesla, but not in a hurry to buy another one anytime soon.

Thanks guys. I currently have a 2020 LR + and havent really had any major issues. I understand this one is newer though. I have de-activated the Auto door though for the same reason you mentioned Ben. All in all I love my MX especially because of its space for 6 passenger seating. So far so good, and have bo intentions of getting rid of mine. April/2021will be a year since we got ours. Keep the great videos coming🙏🏽

@DSRTSLA 3 года назад

Yes I agree!

@benmorris1061 3 года назад

I mostly enjoy our X but most of what was said in this video is right. In 6 months of ownership I've already had several major repairs under warranty. The heater went out a few weeks ago requiring a 2.5 hour trip with no heat in 35 degree weather to service. My 3rd row seat is currently stuck down and I've read there is a possibility I'll need an entire new 3rd row seat. Several squeaks and noises I've had repaired as well. I was able to get the 4 years 50K mile warranty before it was discontinued from Tesla (2017 P100D). I've paid nothing out of pocket so far, but there is a 0% chance I have this car outside the warranty. Current plan is to hang onto it until the Cyber Truck is released.

I just love Jenny. Her simplicity, humility and authenticity. She is very honest. I would take her recommendation everyday.. Thank you both for sharing this. I have a 2019 M3 and still holding on to my 2011 MDX. I was thinking of going all electric -all Tesla but your comments and review put a lot in perspective. Just the maintenance after warranty will be a nightmare. I will wait for a less sophisticated 600mile E-SUV to replace my MDX . Not sure which manufacturer will be first to market. Once again thank you both for unbiased review.

@thevigpr 3 года назад

Ben - great video. I have been following you for a while and actually got a used 2015 Model S. Got the unlimited supercharging. I am now thinking about a Model Y or Model X so this video has given some insights. I believe the key thing about EVs is range so when looking into used, I am leaning towards 295 at minimum. Excited to see your new used Model S.

@koreanmtnbiker2931 3 года назад

Hi guys. Great informative video! In considering buying Y or x, do you think Tesla is now making a better X? Do you think they fixed all/most of the flaws you guys experienced on the older model? Also since second pair of gull wing doors have many moving hinges, if this ever break or get stuck, what would you say the repair cost is? I think doors look KOOL but seems eventually a money prone pit. Like the supercharger or turbo. A sooner or later a money pit. Have good day. guys

@MXP90DL 3 года назад

Good review for your MX. I get it and understand your moving on. I had to figure that the MX must have a + and - to owning one. I will share my MX is like less than the 1st 700 ever made. It needed a few things fixed or upgraded but it was all taken care of by Tesla. For me I have all the positive reasons to enjoy it and want to keep it forever. I think it will become a unique classic car for sure. When ordered every check box was selected so we did not feel it getting older by being passed by newer models. So many things that this car has can not be ordered anymore which helps bridge the gap between new and old. Just wanted to share that MX ownership differently depends on the car. So YES this car is perfect still and FULLY enjoy it as was meant too by Elons vision. Thank you for your truthfulness of your experience as always...

@Ricers 3 года назад

Great video! I have been a Model X owner for +3 years and can relate to your comments on flashiness. If you have to open the FWDs, you are always going to get attention. However, regarding the functionality of the FWDs, mine have been great and open fully always/consistently. The earlier models have issues with ultrasonics and newer models have an interior sensor to reduce head bonks. I have had a few things go wrong, but not nearly as much as you. I think some of that may be related to the car being a 2016 and a showcar which had body modifications. That said, Tesla has not been adding significant new tech to the Model X (battery tech, heat pump) so I will be trading the car in this year for a Model Y.

@wilber8260 3 года назад

Thanks for very informative video. I used to own a 2017 MX but sold it, mainly because of those FWDs! I think if they do a refresh AND get rid of the FWDs, reduce the price, give it the horizonatl screen like MY, but keep the screen behind the steering wheel, they could sell a lot more of these. You probalby saw Kim Java's video on this, and she makes alot of sense to me.

@jeffjarinmd 2 года назад

Do you guys every miss the space going from the X to the Y? My wife rode on both a Y and X and immediately loved the space of the X so thats what we went for. I did end up getting a used 2019 and going well so far. I for one too am not looking forward to the attention of the wing doors, but I still love them.

I appreciate your video for all the real life problems and costs people go through of owning a Tesla. I am grateful for all the information and insight you provided. I do think you did the right thing in trading it.....I would have traded it long ago....If I paid $78 000 for a car I would not accept creaking, cracking and things falling off.

I'm a huge fan of Tesla and a proud Model Y owner. That's been said, one of Tesla's 2021 priorities has to be quality control and their services (in-house or partnership with others) now that they are going to crossing that chasm to the mainstream customer base.

@anthonypagatpatan9198 3 года назад

I agree that the Model X is a bit too flashy for me. We bought our 2020 Model X LR in December of 2019, so we’ve had it for about a year now. After a year of having the car, we decided it made more sense financially to sell ours and pick up a Model Y and maybe an ID4 or m3. Over the course of the year we’ve owned the X, we put about 20,000 miles on it with trips from San Diego to Las Vegas and Big Bear. The trip to big bear was a big eye opener for the power for regenerative braking. We topped off our mileage at the super charger in San Bernardino and by the time we got to the camp grounds in Big Bear we were down to 50% charge. On the way back down, we regenerated about 24% and got back to San Bernardino SC with 74% battery. We did have an air condition issues it’s ours as well. Our trip to big bear, the AC wasn’t working at all and blowing out warm air. It turned out the air conditioning sensor was not working properly and the refrigeration was undercharged. After a warranty fix, we didn’t have any other issues.

But if this you didnt drop this video for another 3 months, we would of been Model X owners for sure!

Hello, I have had my 2016 P90D for two months with 100k miles and bought it used . The only issue I have with the car is range. I live in Michigan and bought it in November. I am getting 450 to 550 Wh/mile in the winter and on road trips close to 425 Wh/mile. Is this what you have experienced or do you think this is due to the cold weather? The highest supercharging rate i’ve got was 94kw and the max rated range I’m getting is 220 miles at 100% but actual driving range is close to 140 miles. Could it be an issue with the battery? Do I need to take it in for service? Thank you

Long story short Tesla would deny for almost a year that the old MCU does not work with new fsd computer. I got tired and purchased new mcu upgrade.

@bryhsiao 3 года назад

I got used to the automatic door open on my driveway when i take out trash. It's fine just let it be and when you walk away, the door closes itself. brilliant. 2020 Raven MX, small things but no big issue so far. Loving the car and made the frunk automatic too now that's something everyone would appreciate the automatic doors in Model X comparing to other models. Your wife bringing back groceries while you and kids in the car waiting in the parking lot, and you can just open the frunk by a click, and after she put in the groceries, click to close the frunk and open the passenger door with another click, and close it when she gets in, and then hands her a lysol wipe. Drive the car away without having the pull the key out/her touching the exterior/interior handles. Perfect car for the pandemic.

@zeeshanm1680 3 года назад

@@Wasabi9111 I don’t think they understand why they have all of these problems, these problems are mainly due to the fact that they got the literal first production batch of a completely new vehicle, it will be the same thing with their rivian and they will have these same problems, they will most likely get these same issues on the rivian and keep complaining bc they don’t really know about this.

Wonder if you'd have the same reaction if you had bought new with full warranty

Tesla mobile tech told me that Tesla beefed up the hinges on the gull-doors. Also, they reworked the ultrasonic sensors and made sure that the fit and finish is not an issue. Basically, the gull-door issues have been solved to the point that they are a reason to get the refreshed Model X.

Model X made a fantastic wedding car for my wife and I. I bought a Model Y because its just more practical.

Model X is also needed for towing heavy trailers - espacially in Europe. when one want to stick with an EV. Plaid Batteries in it would help that. For having a decent range when towing. And it looks like we in Europe will not have the cybrtrk.

WOW! Jan 2021: "AP version 1...works far more reliable" Love my AP1 / hate MCU1. Great video Ben and Jennie... Did you take advantage of Section 179 tax deduction? That is definitely one huge benefit to the X over all other Tesla models.

@rossgarner1049 3 года назад

Sounds like just buying a standard 90D used from Tesla would have been a better buy. I bought a used 90D from Tesla a few months ago and got another 4 year warranty on a 2017 and got a great deal and for full self driving

I have a lease expiring (Model3P) in July and am between X (LR) and Y (Performance) and have a family of 4... Which one should I go with? Model Y looks aren't on the same level as X (also hoping they update it this year)

@pbcunha1 3 года назад

@@jonathansage2147 I guess I’m waiting on whether or not Tesla updates the X - value for money-wise, no doubt the Y is better ... looks of the X and space for family are unparalleled however.

Thank you so much for this. I know what questions to ask Tesla now, that now my delivery is 2 weeks away.

You should try test driving a new X and see if you see any major differences in terms of driving/tech

They'll have to have a model x-sized suv with regular doors in the next 5 years. Love my pathfinder's size, afraid the cybertruck will be too big.

Awesome honest review! Owners of Lambo, Ferrari, Porsches etc, have a similar experiences. I have owned a ten year old 911 for 6 years and do feel like you. I still don't regret the experience. Theses car, including Model X , are exceptional cars. They are kind of bucket list items.

Even Tesla build quality will suffer when a company takes it apart, fiddles with it, in a rush, and then parks it.

Thanks for sharing video/stream. As a spectator (lounge chair coach) I think they should discontinue modelX. Let it play out for another year or so but the sooner they move on to other model production the better.

X was asking for trouble. The S is an all-round great car that does costs very little to maintain.

Thanks guys for the honest review and feedback . What is your opinion on model S ? Is it worth to buy it right now or wait for more EV's to come to the market. Or Tesla is going to refresh this vehicle ?

Should I get the Model Y Standard or Long Range. I don't plan on traveling much especially due to Covid and my Wife's 7 seater 2021 Kia Sorento. But do you feel as if I will get range anxiety.
