It's a bit better, it starts to make a bit more sense - with parts now becoming about $1500-1800 or so. At that length, it's reasonable to figure that labor and pulling that wire may take that much. I'd say it's starting to make sense now. One clarification question you might ask them is whether their "3-wire" specification means 2 hot + neutral, or whether the 3-wire includes ground. If they're assuming neutral, you can tell them it doesn't have to be and that they can forego the neutral, because it's 240V-only.
Thank you once again FlasherZ, your help with this has been invaluable. I've discovered another benefit of owning a Tesla, I get to learn all kinds of new things that otherwise I would never come across! Thanks again!

have you had Solar City give an estimate? It's worth trying them for that price.
I have tried, they gave me a contractor in the Chicagoland area, probably won't be cheaper since I've heard other members here complain about them being pricey.
