Rooting Verizon Moto X

[rsweepe]

I've done tons of research and heard and read so many conflicting things so I thought I would just ask. Is there any way to root the Verizon Moto X? Really want to root this phone for various reasons and can't seem to get a definite answer. I bought the phone on Craig's list its clean and I'm using it on T-Mobile right now so I don't know if that makes a difference.

If anyone can please help or shed some light. I sure hope this phone is rootable lol. Thanks!

This is the only way so far. I've also read that this will no longer work on 5.1, so keep that in mind.
