No need to change until the time comes to configure and place an order for one.

It would be nice if one of the the VW brands serviced Scout, but they also want to sell them. That's where the problem arises. The dealers want all or nothing. They don't want direct to consumer sales.

The Cabana roof is canvas. There's no retractable hard top. There are 2 other roof options: glass and steel.

Slate is not an Amazon product. Bezos is an investor through his separate investment firm. Prime keeps going up in price because of live sports and purchasing MGM.

Scout Motors posts a factory construction update every month with photos. It's on their official blog. https://blog.scoutmotors.com/july-2025-scout-motors-production-center-update/

Your friend got some bad information. Both Traveler and Terra will offer bench or bucket seats. Scout has never indicated otherwise since the unveiling.

Jamie from Scout Motors mentioned them over at the Scout Motors Forum: "This was an early development/design build. I believe the wheels were just generic aftermarket pieces." Make of that what you will.

Scout did say at the introduction there wouldn't be any Canadian service centers in year one. I can see why that would be frustrating. But plans change. They haven't built any experience/service centers yet. Who knows what things will look like in two or three years? But if that's how you...

American Axle, not Detroit Axle.

Scout is repainting the Traveler and Terra concepts this summer. It will be interesting to see what colors they choose!

This is what Jamie@Scout Motors posted last month on the official Scout Forum: "options and trim packages won’t be announced till roughly late 2026. And as technology evolves we will adjust."

Ramcharger has been delayed until first quarter of 2026. Some people are making a big deal out of that, but I'd rather see them work out all of the bugs as opposed to releasing an unfinished product.

There will likely be a liquid cooling system for the batteries. It could be modified to assist with engine cooling. I'm sure Scout is working on it. Their engineering choices for the Harvester will continue to be hot topics.

The gas tank is probably up towards the front of the vehicle. In most internal combustion engine cars, the engine in the front and the gas filler is at the back. That's not new. The Harvester is based on a Volkswagen engine, so it will require oil changes just like any other ICE engine. There...

Harvester models have a smaller battery. 150 mi of range. The gas engine generator will provide approximately 350 mi of range for a total of 500

I'm not sure the packaging works without eliminating the frunk. The gas tank has to go somewhere. Not to mention the added weight and cost.

I read that. I'm sure if you asked the Scout engineers they would reluctantly acknowledge that it is a hybrid. That term is confusing to many people, including you apparently. Most people think of a parallel hybrid when the term hybrid is mentioned. That's understandable. Parallel hybrids like...

What was I mistaken about? An EREV is a hybrid. There isn't one kind of hybrid.

Engineers determine what to call it, not me. It's okay to learn something new or admit you're mistaken about something.
