My wife's Wrangler 4xe is slated to build next week and ship on Friday.  We shall see.  I could the use the $7500 credit this year.  Already got the level 2 wiring done and the unit is sitting in my garage.  30% credit for the wiring and the unit, so that is nice too.

Does the charger need to be "professionally" installed to qualify for the credit?  We have the wiring and the charger, just haven't put it in yet.  My BIL is going to assist me and he works for Peco, so that's kind of a professional there.

 

BTW, f wire costs these days.  Dropped over $500 for our wire to reach from the panel to the garage

I got an invoice from my guy.  I am guessing that is all you need.

And, no shite!  The install for the wiring cost me $850 due mostly to the wire costs.  Unit itself was $600 (Juice Box 40 from Costco $599).

It's insane.  I have an unopened spool of 14/2 wire I was holding on to from my 2018 condo remodel for our basement remodel.  I'm thinking of trying to take it back to Lowes for store credit

I got mine from Costco as well.  Massimo 50Amp Level 2 Electric Vehicle Charger.  Was normally $650 but I got it on sale and was $150 off.  Looks like it's no longer available though.

That's a hardwired unit, correct? The Juice Box plugs into the wall outlet I had installed.

Yeah.  If you plug in a 50 amp charger you only get 40 amps, so it makes sense to hardwire it.  I *think* there is a 240 plug adapter for it but don't quote me on that since I plan on hardwiring.  

 

I am going to also install a regular 240 volt plug in the garage in case we end up with two garaged EV's.  That's down the road when the bleeping wire costs come back down.

There was a recall in June over battery overheating issues with DC chargers.  Hopefully mine won't have that issue since it was built in October.  Plus I plan on using those only in absolutely necessary scenarios (long trips).

You should be ok.

The title of this thread is due for a change since unemployment is at an all time low and the national average of gas prices is near pre pandemic levels. Thanks to Grandpa Joe.

Thanks for Fing it up Brandon.

I’ve seen you post that about gas prices twice.  It’s up 40% from Feb 2020 (it’s up higher from March, but will use Feb higher value since you say pre-pandemic levels).  I wouldn’t classify that as being near in value, but we may differ in that definition.

Yeah, not my go to, but it’s a nice change up.

Hey guys, gas near me keeps going down. Is Biden still president?

No. He’s just referred to as the GOAT now.

No.  Trump and Biden had a Face/Off operation a while back, which is why it seemed like Biden did well and Trump got his a** kicked in the midterms.  But they could switch back at any moment. 

Don’t know what’s going on in Harrisburg/York area, gas is stuck at $3.99
