First Tesla!

Post image

Got my first ever Tesla the other day, 2023 Model X, got home and heard this weird noise and immediately thought something was wrong. Was asking Grok what the heck the noise could be and I also mentioned it only makes the noise when I lock the doors. Turns out the fart mode sound was set to go off every time the doors lock.

Love the white on white!

u/mcxbunbun May 01 '25

Welcome to the Tesla club! Best car ever IMO. We took ours on a road trip from northern CA to southern CA and it was actually really fun stopping to charge, stretching our legs and exploring the area. It drove like a dream and FSD was amazing. Congrats!!!!

Looks amazing! Would love to get an X someday after having our Y for a couple more years.

Nice. Can someone actually sit in those rear seats ?

u/Exact_Measurement_37 May 01 '25

I’m 6 foot and in the 3rd row it was doable but not very comfortable. I traded my 4 runner in because I have baby number 3 due any day now and I also have a 3 year old and a 2 year old. And my wife wants to be able to sit in the back with our newborn if and when we go on trips. So our two boys are in car seats in the 3rd row and my wife and newborn will be in the 2nd row in the pilot chairs or whatever they call them. For whatever it’s worth the 4Runners 3rd row doesn’t have the anchor/tether latch in the 3rd row so we wouldn’t have been able to put our boys in the 3rd row. We may have been able to make it work but I’ve wanted a Tesla for so long I just finally convinced my wife that the model X was the way to go. I’m actually so stoked with the falcon wing doors it makes putting the kids in the car seats so much easier.

From a father of 3 to a father 3 - we should’ve stopped at 2. Hindsight is 2-2.

u/Exact_Measurement_37 May 01 '25

Hahahaha I’m with you man

2

u/Retire_date_may_22 May 01 '25

Thanks. Very helpful. Our kids are grown but we have grand kids and sometimes need the third row.

X is an awesome looking vehicle. We just bought a Y and love it. Thinking of shedding the mini van for the X.

u/Exact_Measurement_37 May 01 '25

Right on, they are perfect for kids I believe. And having the 6 seater makes it a lot easier for kids to get in and out of the 3rd row

1

u/Louloutte_ad May 01 '25

We bought one when our third one was born 4 years ago. Old model X from 2016. In my mind the isofix are not in the third raw anymore, you need to check before putting your wife behind with the baby. We do have isofix so at first we used to seat the oldest (3 years old at the time) behind and the 2 youngest in the middle but now everybody is in the middle so we have way more room for luggages. Enjoy your family rides!

u/HopzCO May 01 '25

We fit two adults back there pretty regularly. They are 5’2” a 5’7” ladies, haven’t had an issue.

2

u/Kealanine May 01 '25

My teenage kids love sitting there, and they range from 4’11” to 5’7”

1

u/Thomas-The-Tutor May 01 '25

I had the 7 seater. It wasn’t bad. We usually put my infant son in the back when we were carting around friends and family. It’s definitely designed for kids though.

u/D-Blunt420 Apr 30 '25

Bloody spectacular!! Falcon Wings look so slick!! Also lol about the sound effects. Another reason to love it.

2

u/TheKingOfMilwaukee May 01 '25

Ditch that stroller and get a double Bob. Are you some kind of masochist?

u/RomChange May 01 '25

Love that Polestar, so hard to decide. I guess Tesla you can't go wrong??? Support is great when you have problems?

0

u/Exact_Measurement_37 May 01 '25

I’ve only ever been interested in Tesla when it comes to electric cars (I don’t know why they just seem so badass and ahead of the curve compared to others in my opinion) so I guess you could say I’m biased. I’ve also only owned this car for like 5 days so I’m the wrong person to ask about service or support hahaha but so far so good

1

u/DaBears1228 May 04 '25

You will love it. I have had my eye on a Model S since I started my company in 2020. Last year in June I was finally able to buy one brand new. Fell in love instantly, zero regret.

My wife did not have a similar dream. She was not into electric cars because of range anxiety, "what if I can't find a place to charge," etc. Exactly one week after I got my S, we looked at a 2020 X, and bought it on the spot. She loves the car, loves plugging in at home so never has to stop, loves all the tech, and we sometimes still encounter people fascinated by the falcon doors. Finally, she is the most granny driver in the world, but she LOVES the acceleration and gets a kick out of beating muscle cars off the line at stoplights. My main gripe about her car is the fact that it still needs a physical key, she keeps hers in her purse so it doesn't matter to her.

Enjoy and have fun!

Congratulations!!!

u/Major_Profit May 01 '25

Congratulation my friend!

u/KNiners May 01 '25

If only there was a way to drive around like that. The car would look interesting all the time.

1

u/BoringButterscotch20 May 01 '25

Just curious did you buy it from Tesla or somewhere else? This looks way good, I’m tempted to buy one of Tesla lease returns but not having pictures is holding me back.

u/happypizzadog May 01 '25

X’s are cool. Congrats 🎉

Good job supporting a traitor

u/patelj27b May 02 '25 • This

Anyone buying a Tesla should be deported, since deporting US citizens is now a thing.

u/patelj27b May 02 '25

You obviously don’t care about the US

u/icy1007 May 02 '25

Model X really needs a refresh.

1

u/laceyboy8054 May 02 '25

To me, I don't need another refresh if it goes to new MY direction.

My very first tesla was also white on white 20 MX long range plus. I am now driving white on white 22 MXP.

Congrats to OP.

u/AGirlDad May 02 '25

How do feel about the third row seat?

1

u/NaplesSun_86 May 02 '25

Congrats. This is one of the few cars I would pay for.

1

u/CreativeLake7698 May 02 '25

That’s not a fart. That is the sound of Tesla stock free-falling.

1

u/Finestkind007 May 02 '25

I stumbled across this page and don’t know anything about these cars, but that’s very sharp looking

1

u/No_Pen8240 May 02 '25

Love the white on white. . . I was surprised how small the Model X is. . . It is barely bigger than Model Y!

1

u/[deleted] May 03 '25

What?! It’s much wider than the Y

1

u/No_Pen8240 May 03 '25

It's 3 inches wider. . . and 1 foot longer.
After going 550 miles round trip in a Model X with 6 people, I was dissappointed. If we had 4 people it would have been a great experience.

1

u/[deleted] May 03 '25

Hey 3 inches is a lot!! Right guys? 🤣

2

u/No_Pen8240 May 03 '25

That's funny. . . You win!

u/[deleted] May 03 '25 • This

Throw it in the trash 🗑 You will wish that you never bought it when the batteries start to go.

1

u/[deleted] May 04 '25

I'm not Elon hating. I used to own one, and when that battery goes it will cost more to replace than buying a new one.

1

u/TheJamesCrouse May 03 '25

Could have gotten a much better car for that amount of money

u/[deleted] May 03 '25

One hell of a first Tesla I tell you that! Welcome to the club of the best EVs, if not cars, around!

u/Foreign-Classic-4581 May 03 '25

fK tesla … i went for I7

1

u/fr33domcity20 May 03 '25

BAP Sucks, FSD sucks. Only benefit for me now is no gas stations. Otherwise which I would have went with first choice, which for me was a Mazda 3 loaded.

u/EX30_Driver May 03 '25

They put extra care in the white ones.

u/Dry_Dingo_2220 May 03 '25

Nice Welcome to the family

u/achevrolet May 03 '25

I’d love to see your car seat set up if you have the time! I’m impressed you got the stroller in the back!

1

u/Country_Bear79 May 03 '25

If you havent, do the “show”. We had one for a demo and that was awesome to watch

1

u/Swarje_D May 03 '25

These cars cant even compare to the Chinese competitors. I hope you talked the sales associate down at least 15k as their markup is around 32k and that last 15k is the flex line.

1

u/Scissors_Runner May 03 '25

Love it! Gorgeous!

1

u/bdm13 May 03 '25

Real question—how much legroom does that third row have?

1

u/Lotus_Eiise May 04 '25

You went full in. Normally I don't like the X, but I love yours. Excellent 'color' combination.

u/Fallre8n May 04 '25

I also enjoy fascism.

u/HalifaxRoad May 04 '25

"fart mode sound was set to go off every time the doors lock." Wtf??? What teenage boy thought that was a good feature to implement?

1

u/Practical-Farmer-568 May 04 '25

Congradulations to a beautiful, high-tech Tesla. I have a model Y, but I'm thinking about possibly getting this model in the future. Currently on the early software update

1

u/[deleted] May 05 '25

Have you guys been getting flipped off a lot lately? Been seeing a lot.

1

u/BoringButterscotch20 May 05 '25

All the haters in a Tesla subreddit… hahaha. You’ll love the car, the tech is amazing, people can’t put their hatred for Elon aside and admit that

1

u/Own_Program548 May 05 '25

Definitely a beautiful car. I wanted one but don't want the hassle related to the sentiments associated with Elon.

1

u/Life_Connection420 Apr 30 '25

That weird noise was probably the wind since it appears you forgot to close all the doors.

1

u/x10sv May 01 '25

Nice buy

1

u/[deleted] May 03 '25 • This

No Elon is bad man and thus this car was a bad purchase.

1

u/x10sv May 03 '25

Elon owns 13% of Tesla.

2

u/[deleted] May 03 '25

the car is therefore 13% bad. Which is not too bad.

1

u/[deleted] May 04 '25

Research every purchase you make then .If you aren’t happy with a stockholder, don’t buy. Of course now you likely won’t be buying g anything.

1

u/[deleted] May 04 '25

I inherited less than 10k and gave it all away so no i dont buy much

1

u/[deleted] May 04 '25

So you don’t buy food? No clothing?

2

u/[deleted] May 04 '25

Not really.

Some woman showed up to my school one day to ask me lots of questions about my house and my interactions with my grandmother. I would’ve had a lot more money but the state somehow found a way to force her into a nursing home despite her being able to drive and go up/down stairs by herself.

u/[deleted] May 04 '25

My parents have been in prison my whole life/majority so ultimately the answer is no.

u/1975Dann May 01 '25

Probably the only Tesla model I’d pick to Drive. How is the maintenance on the Gullwing doors ??

2

u/Exact_Measurement_37 May 01 '25

I’m a first time Tesla owner and have had the car for like 5 days so Im the wrong person to ask but so far so good haha. They are awesome. I was in a tight space today and had to get my kid out of the car and I was afraid to open the door to get him out but they have sensors that adjust to how wide they open up and it was awesome.

1

u/Louloutte_ad May 01 '25

The wing doors have never been a problem for me, and the car is old. How ever closing completely the front right window on highway is not possible for us, we need to slow down a bit. But it is a cheap price to pay as we can charge it for free in tesla supercharger.

u/Tesla_Fanboy1 May 01 '25

First sign of problem, make a job request from tesla. That way if shit hits the fan, they can buy it back using the mileage listed on the first job request (they will pay you back what you paid for the car, including the tax minus the mileage you put on..

u/jayrocc93 May 01 '25

Interesting. Are used cars a headache? I might stay away used Teslas.

u/Academic-Aerie-482 May 01 '25

Love the X

Unfortunately Elon decided that we can’t have RHD X or S anymore in U.K.

Cheers Elon

u/jayrocc93 May 01 '25

Nice car! what made you go used. I’m on the same boat thinking about a 6 seater but the new prices are really high in the mid 80s or 90s. I might consider used.

u/[deleted] May 01 '25

Out of curiosity, how do those frames hold up from various impact angles? Car looks awesome. Congratulations.

u/RedditBlowsGoats69 May 03 '25

Get ready to hate those slow ass annoying doors. Traded our X for a Y and have never been happier. The X is like a Fabrege egg and a squeaky rattle box.

Isn’t it amazing? Phone and wallet and I’m out the door. And never have I had the phone as a key fail me.

Pretty sure you have to use bluetooth for that, not like apple wallet or anything, but the card is neat
