    Scout rendezvous who’s going!

    I know this is probably sacreligious to those older Scout owners that have likely been going to Scout events for years but I wonder if the Columbia, SC area will start to plan/host annual Scout events (not necessarily take over existing ones). If you look at my profile you will see why I have...

    April 2025 Scout Production Plant Construction Update

    I want to do the same and feel lucky I live in Charlotte, NC, which is essentially a 1 hour drive down I-77 :) Never dreamed Blythwood, SC (Columbia for that matter) would get a nice big new car plant, especially a plant that is going to build an exciting new car like this! Can't wait.

    Is EV model's 350 mile range with 35" tires or, if not, what tire size?

    I have stock 35s on my Bronco Badlands, which Ford basically forced Jeep to start to offer the same as a high end factory option when the new Broncos arrived. I spend a lot of time on the Bronco (and sometimes Jeep forums/pages) and there is a big following to have factory setup 35s on a...

    March 2025 Scout Production Plant Construction Update

    Can you see the plant from Interstate 77? I drove by this way a couple of weeks ago on my to Columbia and saw a large area of land being cleared. Thought it had to be for the plant. Will be impressive to see from there.

    March 2025 Scout Production Plant Construction Update

    That's so cool as I got a Badlands too after waiting for a one year reservation, but for some reason they didn't take a pic...

    Off-Road usage

    Ha. Well I have a $60K Bronco Badlands that I took to major offroad group events within 2 months of getting it and have since gone again maybe a dozen times. I paid for that capability so I definitely want to experience it and take advantage of it. There are ways to go offroading to avoid damage...

    Looks like the Scout will be better than the other choices...

    Definitely better than Teslas now! I can't figure ole Elon out so want to stay away from his products. Glad I bought a Ford Mach E now...

    Public debut of Scout Traveler & Terra @ University South Carolina Football Game -- Photos & Video

    Yes like at our Carolina Panthers game, which would be more exciting than watching them play this year lol. I would buy some cheap tickets just to see it.

    Question about EREV Extended Range EVs on Long Trips (Harvester Gas Engine)

    Good point about the Cayman. Looking forward to seeing how all of this unfolds, while also feeling we might be helping Scout in someway setting all this up!

    Question about EREV Extended Range EVs on Long Trips (Harvester Gas Engine)

    Ok I appreciate you providing the link to the Volt power train as I do stand corrected. Kudos on how you handled that! : ) I now recall this going back and forth in those initial years as I think the big confusion was how one defines how the gas engines provides assistance. Which as you know...

    Question about EREV Extended Range EVs on Long Trips (Harvester Gas Engine)

    I agree with you, I would rather just get the full EV version and enjoy the bump in performance and range over the gas extender that only prolongs the battery's depletion.

    Question about EREV Extended Range EVs on Long Trips (Harvester Gas Engine)

    I agree with all you said except the part about Volt's planetary gearset. That was a myth and was never the case, atleast not in the Gen1 vehicles. The engine was only used as a generator with the battery providing full power to propel the vehicle in motion. What many may have confused this...

    Harvester owners (future) here! Who's going EREV Electric + Gas Range Extender 🔋⛽️

    Just posted more detail on the other Harvester thread, so will just summarize on this one. I also haven't read thru all 7 pages, so hopefully this hasnt already been argued to death. It is my hope that Scout is watching these boards as they appear to be listening to their potential buyer base...

    Question about EREV Extended Range EVs on Long Trips (Harvester Gas Engine)

    Hi, we think alike so wanted to give you my thoughts and concerns. First of all, I have put a deposit down for the Traveler with Range Extender so am really keeping my fingers crossed (with cash) that this range extender is more like you described. However, I now have my doubts after reading a...
