    Scout gift for reservation holders - Any guesses?

    Don't expect too much. Probably a letter and maybe a nice postcard or artcard.

    Scout Mobile App Spotted! [Video & Screenshots]

    280 miles at 70% would make 400 miles at 100%. Even if it was a placeholder, you'd think they would mock it up close to 500 miles since thats what they've been advertising. This would be highly disappointing and a deal breaker for me if thats the actual range with the Harvester once released.

    Electric-only people get in here! Who's going full EV only? 🔋

    I really do like full EVs, love my R1T, but its brutal to do long road trips due to all the time spent charging and other shenanigans related to finding fast chargers, broken chargers, wait times, etc.

    Scout has been quiet lately

    Scout is probably heads down trying to get ready for 2027 production but like every other manufacturer I'm sure they are trying to figure out supply chain and costs - which is even harder for a new manufacturer. Lets see if they can pull this off. Rivian had similar headwinds with Covid when...

    Convert to full EV later from harvester

    Doubt it. Unless you want to do some after market swap. That's like saying you want to swap from v6 to v8 later. Sure. you can do it if you really want but the manufacturer aint doing it. And likely you'll be voiding the warranty. Even if battery tech advanced greatly so that you could get...

    Cabana top opening in action (videos)

    Its definitely going to be louder than glass or other metallic material. I think Scout mentioned that during the reveal or in on of the interviews.

    Traveler with black roof - photos of official design buck

    Kinda looks like a vinyl wrapped roof already.

    Anyone else losing excitement/interest?

    Its still a long ways away from 2027 so its a wait and see. Rivian went through turmoil as they were preparing to launch in 2020/2021 due to the pandemic. Somehow they got through it though their long term success still is TBD. As everyone else, my investments are down. I don't know if it will...

    Trump to impose 25% tariff on all imported vehicles & parts [LOCKED DUE TO NO POLITICS RULE]

    We know Scout will be built in the US and is sourcing a majority of parts domestically but still might impact them and bottom line price. https://www.nbcnews.com/business/autos/trump-auto-tariffs-which-companies-how-much-when-what-to-know-rcna198223

    Interior Color

    I hope they have real leather as n option and not just vegan leather. I'm not a fan of the light colored wood they have in the Terra. Maybe it looks better in person but in pictures it looks cheap and plasticky.

    RAM 1500 Ramcharger - Blueprint for Scout

    This could be the blueprint for the Scout Harvester. Very interesting watch. If Alex's guesstimate is right, its going to be a bear to charge the Ramcharger (no DCFC). Scout is going to be able to learn from how RAM executes on their EREV.

    Digital rearview mirror (useful on Traveler with spare tire carrier)

    i absolutely hope they add this. spare tire carrier, passengers, stuff can all block or obscure the view to the rear.

    Dislikes about your current vehicle that’s offered / solved by the Scout Traveler / Terra?

    I like almost everything about my R1T except road trips. The Harvester will address the biggest issue for me - the number of times I need to charge - without me compromising capability and performance.

    4-Cylinder Harvester EREV engine confirmed by CEO Scott! + 0-60mph, range, payload, towing specs discussions

    It's probably a generic statement about the highest range model having 350 miles of range. It'll have smaller wheels and street tires, probably have less clearance and maybe lighter overall. I could see it hitting 330-350 miles.

    4-Cylinder Harvester EREV engine confirmed by CEO Scott! + 0-60mph, range, payload, towing specs discussions

    Which is why theres no chance they're going to do NMC for the Harvester, its going to be LFP. Its cheaper, can charge to 100% daily, and its less dense so performance isn't as good which lines up to what the CEO stated. 99.9% sure it'll be LFP.

    4-Cylinder Harvester EREV engine confirmed by CEO Scott! + 0-60mph, range, payload, towing specs discussions

    If its cheaper chemistry and less dense, then it is likely LFP for the Harvester. It would be illogical for them to go with NMC for the Harvester since its a low range of 150 miles, people will want/need to charge it to 100% more often. Very, very unlikely its going to be NMC.

    4-Cylinder Harvester EREV engine confirmed by CEO Scott! + 0-60mph, range, payload, towing specs discussions

    I don't see why the Harvester would cost more. If the battery in the EREV is half the size of the BEV battery and uses a less expensive chemistry then it should be equivalent or cheaper than the BEV version. A 4 cylinder engine is surely cheaper or equivalent in cost to a 60-70 kWh battery even...

    Start stop button location

    i can see the argument either way for having the start button but it’s likely not going to reboot the vehicle nor will it impact vampire drain. No EV turns off completely. it’s more like its sleeping Rivian has the issue because of engineering and software. While they have improved it some...

    Is Scout dead in the water? I'm not buying it at a 10-25% tariff added cost.

    Tariffs aren't nothing but still a bit early to see how it impacts their base price. Maybe they remove some features to try to keep that price and raise the prices of more optioned models. I could see the top spec Traveler being in the $85-90k range now. Which would be a bit too high for me...
