What's the common receptacle used for 240v Ranges

Not an RV question but my daughter is looking to replace her 240v electric stove/oven. I have not had an electric range in over 30 years. She said the receptacle in the wall now is for 3 prongs. ...

So now it is clear as a bell. :h

In my house i just wire new appliances in like the old one coming out.

Having to buy a new cord and rewire is BS to me. I have a three wire on my drier and stove.

Delivery guys have tunnel vision and probably for a good reason.

Can't you just tool over there and hook it up for her and shove it back in the space?
