You know, pay back, like you figure the pay back on a new TV, washing machine or what's the pay back on your lawn mower?
The solar panels give you a higher interest rate then most other investments, around 7% and are much more stable.

I've never figured out how to quantify the enjoyment of driving a car that is quite and smooth, refueling at home has it's own qualities and enjoyments as well that are difficult to quantify.
