Model X cannot drive off-road. In terms of cargo/people-hauling space it's not even close to GM's full-size SUVs.

Wife and I live in DC proper with our 2 kiddos in car seats. We park on the street which already rules out EVs. We have ILs nearby who provide childcare. I am often driving the whole clan around. We frequently go to IL's house in Delaware where we have a surf fishing permit and like to drive on the beach. Model X or Sienna would not be a good fit for our use case.

A minivan has the same people/cargo-carrying capabilities as a Suburban though it cannot drive off-road. My wife and I also prefer the higher seating position and curb weight of the truck.


What are you talking about? None of those off road.


Tahoe/Suburban can definitely drive on the beach, just air the tires down to 10-20 PSI.

Beach isn’t exactly off reading.

Do you realize what riverbeds, mud and rocks are? Those aren't going to be able to do that kind of stuff but sure, you can do fake basic off pavement and call it off roading.

You think it looks great? I think it looks like a ridiculously enormous vehicle that's 2-3 times more likely to kill people if you hit them with it, and that's contributing to our planet burning up.

I know. But it's 2019, most of the money in America does not believe in climate change, gas has been cheap for years and big SUVs make people feel "safe" in a tumultuous and uncertain world.
They won't be able to make these fast enough.
USA! USA! USA!

off pavement is literally the definition of off-roading.

"it's not *real* off-roading unless your car tumbles end over end down the Rubicon trail...and yes my Wrangler is used on paved roads 99.9% of the time. What's your point?"

You're not going to get a minivan over the dunes to a house like this.



I miss my Suburban!

Dude. Sea levels are rising NOW. Recognize this reality, ignore this reality, whichever you want - the sea levels don't care.

Cargo space? Gas mileage? Ease of entry/exit? Get outta here.

It's a nice looking vehicle. What's the sticker price?

I already know I can't afford it, lol.

Someone who owns a Suburban and lives/works in DC has a much lower carbon footprint than the minivan owner who commutes in from the far suburbs every day.
