    Incentivizing home charging

    A week ago I got a quote from Qmerit for $1100, not counting the cost of the charger. My panel is in the garage so I’m within 30’ for any spot in the garage for a level 2 charger.

    Electric Solid Rear Axle = “EBeam Rear Axle” — Underbody Photos & Analysis

    Is this the ultimate ’square body’? A 392 or 549 with wide ratio 4-speed.

    Incentivizing home charging

    I just saw a post on the State Of Charge podcast, detailing Ford’s new policy. Buy a Ford EV, they’ll pay for home charger installation. What a great idea! I think Scout Motors should do this! I’ll be even more EV incentivized. (Although a new Scout already has me salivating). This seems like a...

    Towing what with your future Scout? -- Using Traveler or Terra?

    Very nice. No shower or toilet I presume?

    Terra: bed cover?

    I like this, it would definitely be a contender for me. It would be cool if it could be paint matched to the truck.

    I want the swing-out spare tire carrier on the Terra!

    Good to know. I just like the look of the rig on the Traveler, that’s all.

    I canceled our two reservations

    No they weren’t. Particularly the 4-bangers.

    What is the Turning Radius / Circle?

    Yes, but there are other factors as well, such as suspension, steering knuckles and tire size. Consider the difference between the Scout 80/800’s and Scout II. Both had 100” wheel bases. I want what the Scout II had… but you know the saying, ‘if wishes were fishes, we’d all cast nets’.

    2027 Scout Reservation Deposits List - Tracker & Stats 📋 📊

    Is there any indication of the ACTUAL number of reservations? The list at the head of this forum is going to be only those who’ve taken the time to report. That may or may not be everybody.

    NACS Charge Port Location

    Would an easier resolution be to place a 2nd port at the right front? That’s a conflict with the Harvester filler neck, but just move that to the drivers side. Plus all the recent DC fast charging news I’m watching on YT indicates that new charging stations are going with longer cables.

    What is the Turning Radius / Circle?

    Is there any info on the turning circle? The Scout II was as good as the original Bronco (tight). Wondering if these Scouts come anywhere close.

    I want the swing-out spare tire carrier on the Terra!

    Good point about the garage. I guess my primary desire is it doesn’t sit in the bed, instead of stuff I want to carry.

    I want the swing-out spare tire carrier on the Terra!

    I didn’t find much searching for this feature so I’m bringing it up here. I know that supposedly it’s not going to be available on the Terra… but it absolutely needs to be done, IMHO. I reserved the Harvester option, and I can’t envision a 35” spare in a 5.5 foot bed. Meaning it steals limited...

    True enough. Who knows what‘s 2/5/10 years down the road. My initial resistance to EV’s has been the dearth of DC fast charging stations, and what I thought was hugely expensive home charging set-up. Now that I’m beginning to research this…. I’m warming to the idea of some form of EV.

    Me Too! This Scout cannot be all things to all people. And I think towing is not the primary intent of this vehicle. If you need towing, I understand, there are much better options out there.

    Time to give up the frunk (if you want the Harvester engine)...

    Have to agree here. Plus, if the motor goes up front, the hood should hinge at the front… just sayin’
