OR a Rivian. Pretty well sorted engineering BUT need an alternative front end style. Really can’t consider buying one when I can’t stand to look at it (personal opinion not shared by all - shredded opportunity #2?).

I am assuming $70k+ also. I am betting leases will be available to help move vehicles. RE financing I typically get cheaper rates from my local credit Unions vs banks/dealers. Vehicle trade in could be a problem BUT rarely have I gotten a fair trade in value from a dealer. Dealers assume the...

YES on optional rear mounted spare. Spare underneath in rear (not sure). The Harvester crowd is already looking at the gen set/engine in that area, fuel tank under rear seat (all Scouts will likely be designed to accommodate this layout) which will not leave much room for for a spare tire). I...

Yikes, the list of death keeps getting longer. Still holding out hope.

The reservation numbers are not issued in consecutive order so none of us know where we are in the line. Also people don’t always post to this site immediately upon ordering. As was just announced with the Harvester, production will partially be staged by options/groups of option which will...

I saw the release today. IF there is a “generous” initial lease program might consider getting one to tie me over until the Scout arrives. Recon doesn’t have the same visual impact or target performance as the Scout. Starting price of $60k (2025 dollars) indicates Scout will REALLY have to work...

I had some issues a couple of days ago. I think high traffic on the site is making it “jumpy”. Try again at different times of day to see it it helps.

Ordered BEV but never thought of emissions check on Harvester. In WI the lib’s likely won’t give the Harvester a break (only a half green vehicle especially with smaller battery and towing capability). Likely will charge the Harvester models full EV license fuel surcharge and take your gas tax...

No details yet. Looking at the reservation tracker tells where the demand is. Hoping for a Chicago or Minneapolis/St Paul upper Midwest option.

Sounds like another vote for direct to consumer sales. My take on the high end dealership is they feel empowered to overcharge you for everything because you have $$ and they can. I use well qualified private shops where available as soon as the warranty is expired (I avoid the extended warranty...

No info, Jelly of the month club membership?!

The Discovery, and prior gen MB G Wagons, are the only European SUV’s that hold my attention. The Discovery is engineered for off-road capability and is used that way in other parts of the world. Most off-road capable vehicles in the US see very little dirt/mud/rock duty (mainly snow duty for my...

Great question RE coil springs vs. air suspension. I am still at the “not for me” phase. No_Remorse pretty well laid out my understanding of the issues. With coil springs you get more flexibility on lift kits/ride height modifications though within design limits the air suspension flexible ride...

THANKS for opening this thread. Went full EV on initial order. Plan to keep my ICE rides in addition to the Scout. I was interested in Scout as soon as the initial stories started to come out. I want the reduced driving cost/ maintenance benefits of EV and a vehicle that is new and unique. IF...

Not to sure about the wheels BUT the Terra color is AWSOME!

Wow! Delaying the BEV’s makes perfect sense from a business standpoint but… For now I will sit tight and see how things develop. Not willing to bail on a Traveler BUT like most of us, I still have a lot of questions about the Harvester. Looks like the “get rid of the frunk” argument has legs...

I am also am looking for a simple and reliable off-road capable vehicle BUT PROFIT is the reason manufacturers sell (push) high option vehicles (i.e. Jeep Grand Wagoneer). Scout will be needing high margin vehicles out of the gate to surge its cash flow. Those of you wanting a grand touring...

Quoting colnnwn “There is little chance that the Harvester would turn on with 70% battery power under an Optimize setting. I can't remember what they said they planned to call this mode exactly. That's too close to the normal limit that a battery should be charged to and stored at. In Tow mode I...
