Is $67,000 to install a 17.4 kW solar system with 2 Tesla Powerwall 3s a fair price?

Project Details

I'm trying to get a gut check on this solar quote for panels and battery storage, as I'm looking to get this installed before the end of the year. My home is new construction from 2018, and the asphalt shingles are 7 years old but seem to be in solid shape. The installer is a local company with a good reputation, having installed 7MW of systems locally. They also do commercial solar and EV charging installations, and their strategy for 2026 is to primarily switch to EV charger installations. They also service solar systems installed by companies that are no longer around. While it's hard to have full confidence in a local private company, their customers seem happy (4.9 stars on Google), and they appear to be adapting their focus to customer demand. They operate in NC, SC, and GA and seem more diversified than other local solar companies.
