Stalks or not?
Actually, I think it’s a significant omission as to whether or not her Tesla X had the old stalks, or the new “screen only” gear configuration (well, there are buttons overhead for gearing but they’re not intended as the primary selector).
I have a Tesla Y with stalks. I’ve test drove the new controls and personally would never buy a Tesla (or any other brand) with the new controls. I don’t buy MKBHD’s assertion that you get used to them.
The article says the family had 3 Teslas. Again, no mention of whether there was a mix of controls among those cars or if they all had one or the other set of stalks (or not). But the family doesn’t blame the car.
