For two years, I have waited patiently for a Tesla Model X.  I am 100% sold on the future of electric vehicles and Tesla is the only company today offering range up to 250 miles. My car arrived in Boston almost a month ago with a cracked windshield and Tesla has been attempting to repair it since then.  A consistent pattern of delays and lack of communication have exhausted my patience with Tesla and my desire for a pre-damage $100K car has evaporated.  Today I purchase a new BMW X1 to cover my long distance and off-road travel needs. I will continue to use my electric BMW i3 for local commuting. Audi is working on a long range electric SUV scheduled for availability in 2018 and so begins another 2 year wait. The X1 is a baby brother to our five year old Audi Q5.  It gets 32 mpg on the highway, is huge inside for a compact SUV, and is unequivocally fun to drive.  I hope to put its all wheel drive, off-road capabilities to the test on our upcoming cross country road trip.
