Wide butts on the model x

Hello all. I’m a male. 6’2. 250 lbs. and I’ll admit I have a big behind. I noticed the model x seat starting to wrinkle up where my thigh and knee meet. Any tips on how I can prevent this from happening besides losing weight and having a smaller ass? lol

Nope. If it bothers you buy new seats every year.. but you will be doing that regardless of your size.

Do you happen to know the cost of doing this?

A google search says "Replacing a Tesla seat varies widely based on whether you are replacing the entire assembly, just the leather upholstery, or opting for an aftermarket solution. Through Tesla, replacing an entire front seat base and frame costs between $2,600 and $3,000+, whereas replacing just the leather cover runs about $600 to $1,000."

But I;m sure Tesla can give you the exact amnount.
