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.
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...
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’.
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.
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.
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.
