    Because you are just like any other unoriginal Bay Area parent of 4 who get wet dreams about a model x.

    Just note you will need to plan your family road trips around superchargers, and assuming they are not all taken on the popular routes like 80 east to Tahoe/Reno

    Save yourself some money by putting that 90k into a down payment for a 1 bedroom Waikiki vacation condo and rent it out.

    People can only agree with you have they already have a model x? :/

    Real points: Teslas have some of the highest safety ratings out there and the falcon wing seats of the X are perfect for carseats.

      Also real points. Compared to cars in same class it has similar or worse safety. The falcon wing doors are known to be very unreliable and prevent you from having a roof rack

      True, if a roof rack is important, it's a no-go. The lower center of gravity due to the battery doesn't help that much huh?
