FYI, here are the quotes:
Hayes Electric - $700
Lenhart - $550
Pikes - $423.
I used a 10% off for Jan 2024 with Pikes. Would be $470 without the Jan discount.
SO impressed with Cassandra at Pike's. Their quote is very detailed, sent PDF to me this morning. Specs out the entire Job in writing. Yikes! They have our business for sure.
Prime example of getting a few quotes for jobs around The Villages...
Thanks again folks...

In 2018 Lenhart charged $200 to install a 50A outlet (NEMA 14-50) just below the breaker box in the garage. Evidently the price has gone up, but anything over $300 is ridiculous considering how easy it is. Material cost is negligible. It's all labor. It took them less than half hour.
To be honest, I would think twice about bothering with the 240V oulet . In my Wisconsin house I have one 14-50 outlet where I charge my Y. I charge my X with a regular 110V outlet since the plug won't reach and I don't feel like playing musical cars. I even use an extension cord with the 110V mobile adapter. I can get 100 miles a day charge with 110V. I guess if you regularly drive more than that then you need 240V.
