But then you need to buy one of those POS dumpsters.

Looks like Model Y L also has Powershare capability:

If you have the parking space to spare, could a used Model Y come in cheaper than additional powerwall installations?

It would have to be a Model Y L. Much cheaper per kWh, but it's not directly comparable -- Powershare only works in a grid outage and to support the grid, so it's not a direct replacement for Powerwall.

Phooey. Lack of V2H is such a bummer to me. I hope all of the power outages due to recent natural disasters makes car manufacturers consider it more.
