Well, we have a '22 Bolt and a '21 MME.

Here's the thing: the house was not plumbed for natural gas, so we're necessarily FULLY electric. All appliances, including water heater and heat pump. As you might imagine, this was a total layup for getting solar.

But we overbuilt the solar array, so now I'm thinking of ways to monetize the excess energy because SoCal Edison will return pennies on the dollar...

Sold last ICE 3 weeks ago. Now we have a Tesla and an MME.
We moved to an apartment but wife gets free charging at work.

Upstate/Southern Tier of NYS here.

One car (MME Select AWD) household with a 1200 sq foot house and 2 car detached garage.

Completely electrified over the past year or so:

Natural Gas Furnace replaced by an LG Inverter cold climate heat pump (added central air which was a nice bonus)
Gas water heater replaced by a State Heat Pump Water Heater
All electric lawn equipment
Made some improvements to the building envelope like blown in attic insulation, some spray foam, and a new basement door

No solar, but my energy costs have dropped substantially since getting rid of natural gas - couldn't be happier

I did have to add a subpanel to the garage for charging the MME, but I think it was a real value add since I only had 20 amps to the garage before.

For anyone considering residential electrification I recommend checking out the "Electrify Everything" Facebook group as well as https://www.natethehousewhisperer.com/
