6 miles north of me in NE Ohio.

Same! I haven’t bought a Rivian yet or a Silverado EV because I can’t find either nearby in a trim or color I’m able to test drive, although I have reservations in for both. Now, the R2 isn’t out yet but I can’t test drive an R1S nearby.

Interesing! Seems as though the only time there is a “Large Loop” of high voltage cables is when the vehicle is charging. Otherwise, the high voltage cables on camera right are the charging port to the battery (which is not installed in this video, or ‘uninstalled’). The remainder of the high...

I’m happy to pay for it. I’m frustrated that even a $90k Rivian doesn’t offer it. Has made me not buy a Rivian, buy a PHEV instead and keep waiting and watching.

Those 'limited' stores are also limited in what they can provide, meaning they are for delivery of your direct to consumer bought vehicle and service. I suppose that's good enough, maybe. Can't test drive or even sit in a prospective model. Tesla is exempt from this since they began a...

I’ve done this more times than I’d like to admit. I’m not trainable.

so sounds like you want a Scout from 1980. It’s practical. Not competitive in 2027, but practical.

frunk too. I think Lightening has this.

Ah, but there is property for sale adjacent to the Metroparks for an off road experience center. I know, I own 18 acres of it in Boston Heights. I have 22 Acres in Hinckley, close to 271 but not as close to the Metroparks. no need for camping. Just a 3 hour ‘experience’. Camping at Mohican or...

That’s why I think States with tree covered roads in forests like Clevelands Metroparks and towpath and Buckeye trail would make great ‘Experience centers’. North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Park is another great one. Gatlinburg in TN Scout could sell coffee , snacks or other drinks. You get a three...

30 minutes in my region is the most for me. Beyond that becomes too far to drop off and get picked up so it can be serviced.

I still wish they would incorporate rear wheel steer but that adds yet more complexity and cost. L

I used to Live in Blythewood where I retired from the military and my wife ordered me back to Ohio. I would have stayed if I could have. Loved the house I owned there. I would definitely take a factory tour, experience and off road course and drive back to Cleveland. I would fly in.

In Ohio, Tesla is a full "dealership" because they grandfathered. Rivian is a 'Crippled' dealership because you can take delivery and get service but you can't sit in one, negotiate (can't anyway DTC only) and can't test drive. Scout will, in Ohio, probably be more like Rivian. Could have a...

I’d like everything you’ve mentioned. We heat and cool the PHEV we have all year long via the app. Start charging too. if I could ‘vent’ the windows to a set 2 inches down and vent the pano roof via the app I would. Rain sense on its own to close. many may not want all this but buyers under 35...

Every vehicle I’ve been in with a Head Up Display has the ability to turn it off.

you can die at 80 MPH just as easily as at 125 MPH. As an Emergency Medicine Physician and Radiologist I’ve had patients die at much slower speeds. Anything that reduces the 40,000 deaths per year due to traffic accidents should be a priority for Scout. This includes Adaptive Driving Beams...

I agree. Not having an advanced Head Up Display, especially by 2027 is a big mistake. Has nothing to do with off road but the much more common traffic Scout owners will encounter. I’m in Cleveland but visited my cousin in Germany. I rented a BMW X4 with a HUD. On the autobahn at 204 Km/hr I...

I’m hopeful there will be one nearby. To Compete, Scout will need one. My F/F who are not as interested in EREV or EVs as I am are still aware of the Service centers. They all really dislike the dealership experience. Salesman are frequently less knowledgeable than they are about a particular...
