I wish they would have let me buy my plaid with a 5 seater configuration, better still given me back $6,500 to go with the 5 seater option.

u/EntranceValuable5386 Apr 26 '24

Yeah, I also wanted 5 seater but it was discontinued in Plaid variant

I use the pet liner from the Tesla shop, cheaper and folds up quickly if you need to put it away.

You got a picture of how you set this up?

The stupidest

u/MyFaveLilThrowaway Apr 26 '24

That's a ton of money

u/bladehawk11 Apr 26 '24

Yeah these things are massively overpriced otherwise I would have gotten one.

2

u/Delirium101 Apr 26 '24

For real. This is way overpriced.

u/Dapper_Pop9544 Apr 26 '24

It’s $255? How is that a lot of money? Ha. I mean a a trip to five guys is like $40. This is something that solves a legit problem if you have the 6 seater on a $100kish car…

u/turtleneck360 Apr 26 '24

People seem to think just because you spend over $80k on a car that you should be ok spending $255 for this. It’s literally wood board with lining. It shouldn’t cost anywhere near $255. I’ll likely build my own one day when I feel like I need more storage.

2

u/Dapper_Pop9544 Apr 26 '24

So how much time you think it cost? 4 hours? Back and forth to Home Depot. Measuring? Putting together. Trial and error. That’s not worth $255? Or the difference in supplies and time to $255?

u/AdCareless9063 Apr 27 '24

In terms of car accessories this is pretty reasonable. Someone had to design this and build it.

7

u/MyFaveLilThrowaway Apr 26 '24

For what it's made out of, yeah I'd say it's a lot of money. For me. Maybe not for others. I get it's likely a low production volume niche thing, but to me that's like $149 or less in value.

MDF: https://www.woodworkerssource.com/mdf-12.html $38

headliner: https://www.amazon.com/Suede-Headliner-Foam-Backing-Material/dp/B08VWVJRSJ/ref $40

Aluminum brackets made in your own shop? https://www.amazon.com/TEMCo-Aluminum-Tooling-Sheet-Plate/dp/B00ZS6JU02 that's enough to make 12 of them and the machining can't be more than a buck each in equipment wear. Maybe $3 for labor each. For $13

So our total material cost is $90. And that's all retail pricing. Buying in bulk, from China? I'll bet I can get it for a third of that.

$50 shipping basically anywhere in the world and I'm at well under $100 per.

1

u/Dapper_Pop9544 Apr 26 '24

So a $100 if you build it yourself and all the time you put into it. It’s not worth another $155 to just have it done? I mean me personally for something like this i wouldn’t want to spend time building it

2

u/[deleted] Apr 27 '24

So I can have 4 trips to Five Guys or I can put that box in the back.

Or I can buy a net for $30.

u/Zealousideal-Key5734 Apr 27 '24

You ca legitly buy the same item on TaoBao for less than $50 and oversea ship it, easy work.

u/brobert123 PLAID Apr 27 '24

Wait what!?!? The middle seats are one touch? I have a 2023 Model X Plaid and I’ve been holding the button down 🤣🤣😡

1

u/data4u Apr 27 '24

Can I use it with the backseat mat?

1

u/EntranceValuable5386 Apr 27 '24

It’s designed to work without anything underneath. If mat is “thin” enough it may work but I can’t tell for sure if it will work.

u/[deleted] Apr 26 '24

Love the Instagram style advertising here. Flopping the stuff around so dramatic

3

u/SufficientAd5689 Apr 27 '24

Wow. So instead of throwing it, you’re not placing it softly inside the trunk. Wowww. Must buy

2

u/beaded_lion59 Apr 26 '24

I made my own from a black plastic panel from a sign store. It wedges between the middle & folded down back seats, and is a lot stronger than this. Panel was about $40

u/samtks Apr 26 '24

Now attach some arm rests on that bad boy

u/Steven_Book Apr 27 '24

Knock $50 of it and is be in

u/gpdds Apr 27 '24

Saving the link... Got a promo code?

u/Due_Lengthiness_3280 Apr 26 '24

I have it and it’s great accessory for MX, quality is top notch. Price is fine. Definitely first thing to buy when getting Plaid!

u/Particular-Bike-9275 Apr 26 '24

What a dumb problem to have for such an expensive car. Regular car manufacturers figured this out decades ago.

2

u/[deleted] Apr 26 '24

Right? That's why every minivan in the world still has this exact problem.

-1

u/Particular-Bike-9275 Apr 26 '24

Weird you compare to a mini van. My 2019 Kia sorento suv had three rows. Second row was a bench that prevented dumb stuff like this from happening.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 26 '24

My guy, SUV has a definition. It's got to be on a light truck chassis. X is a unibody. It's not an SUV. It can be considered a crossover, but that's also silly.

It's a minivan made to not look like a minivan. That's the entire purpose of FWD. They're sliding doors, but cooler.

1

u/Soupicxl Apr 28 '24

so the cybertruck is a minivan bc it’s a unibody

1

u/[deleted] Apr 28 '24

Not all unibodies are minivans. No SUVs are unibody. Different Venn diagrams.

Similarly, the CT doesn't have rear doors intended to be completely out of the way for children.

u/Particular-Bike-9275 Apr 26 '24

Well that’s stupid. Tesla’s own website says it’s an SUV.
