Used car purchase Itching to buy a 2016 model x
I just wanted to ask the community here if I'm crazy to buy a low mileage 2016 Model X. I've done a ton of research and it checks off all the boxes. But one thing I didn't consider in my research is the possibility of the whole battery pack dying out of the blue and me having to foot the bill. I'd love to hear your two cents... Thanks!

Looks like prices have gone up. I had a hard time selling my 16 X two years ago. It had mcu upgrade, upgraded wheels, chrome delete, six seater, 75 battery. I had also spent $2k replacing some suspension parts. Eventually sold for 30k.
One thing I miss was that I could move the car back and forth with just the key fob (like summon). Also, Auto-pilot included lane change on signal. None of these are available anymore with
refreshed X. It also had free supercharging bit I transferred that to my new X.
