As for whether it's worth it, I think the record so far is they've accounted for about 25% of our energy one month, so not bad.

Made your bills 25% less? how many panels are on your roof?

I lied, it was 23% though it may have been better earlier. I can't find the previous bills. They only send the solar part via paper, you can't look them up online funny enough. It got worse due to the combination of it getting hotter and we added a popup pool so we're running the pump nonstop. That or my kids are leaving windows/doors open again.



This many panels, this is a shot of my neighbors roof and they have the same house we do. Also that's their master bedroom window so I'm officially creepy.



Other things factor in like if it's too hot they don't generate as much as if it's just nice and sunny out. Also it's entirely possible they need to be hosed off. It may have been dusty up there for a long time, rain might have washed it off but it's still likely that it's covered in a layer of dirty rainwater spots. We also run something like eight computers all the time so if our actual energy usage was lower the solar offset would of course account for a higher percentage of it. Meritage actually claims that their smallest home in this development breaks even at free for energy every year, generating enough surplus in the winter to offset the higher summer months.

Also our cars are neat (on topic).

This was not good news at all in my opinion. 41k for pretty much just exterior upgrades. Pretty expensive for a 200hp car. I know our cars aren't known for speed but that's an outrageous price.

Yeah, when I found that post, my heart dropped... but at the same time, my buyers remorse immediately went away

Can you come up with a list on who is riding Friday at 5:30 because it seems the list we have right now is a list of everyone who is coming but not leaving with the "caravan".
