    When we put down our deposit on February 17, 2020, we didn't think it would take more than a year to get an install date. After upgrading our electrical service to 200 amp and installing a requisite main panel to go with it, we had to endure Permit Volleyball between Tesla and our city. Once that match was over, the last kicker (for now) was to see our roof replacement costs more than quadruple after the pre-install site visit.

    Having been through all that, I do know it's going to happen. Why? They actually dropped off material like flashing and underlayment at the house a week ahead of time. And in keeping with the way this project has been going, the early forecast has rain for two days during roof removal. Still excited, but damn I'm tired. I'll try to update this thread as the installation proceeds.

    Exciting! Our permit came through in 2 weeks, plan on tear off and install taking 3-4 times longer than advertised.
