I think Starlink will be the first to offer new Satellite cell. Iridium has been around since the 90's. Premium price but they have 100% coverage with the poles covered. Both are Low Earth Orbit, so low latency. Iridium is only 2400 bps, while Starlink is 11-60 Mbps. The total throughput...

Wheels are a personal choice. I think I like the rugged large sidewall tires meant to go offroad more than the pavement princess low profile tire and wheel combo. A little too Escalade for me. Love the colors. Maybe they will have a special color each year like the TRD Pro's.

JoeWilk45 nailed it. To add some math to it, a Scout with an electric motor can be capable of towing X while a suitable gas or diesel can tow X, too. However, the gas loses fuel economy dramatically like an electric truck. So, the gas truck adds expense with each towing fillup. If used for...

It should hold up as well as any quality convertible with a canvas top like Haartz Twillfast . They don't have as much stretch or shrink from temperature and sun like the cheaper vinyl tops. They also are not prone to cracking. The key with a cloth top is to not use it when it has dirt in...

Manufacturers are adjusting to the times. Audi dropped the convertibles for 2025. Ford only makes 1 car for the US(Mustang). Toyotas keep getting bigger. Sales for 2 doors are in the toilet except for sports cars which also don't sell as well as a vanilla SUV. I don't see a startup digging...

I don't think anyone should be buying a new vehicle if $7500 is going to break them.

At the recommended 3500w per ton for A/C, and a 2500 square foot house receiving a 3-5 ton A/C unit(depends on vaulted ceilings and such), you would need a 10,500-17,500w generator. That is what I based my recommendation for a 22-25kw generator. Good to hear about your real world usage example.

Most likely only a few things. A whole house generator is $7-15,000. It comes down to the kilowatts you need. Plus, it would be a drag that you are away from home when the power is out and your fridges and family have no juice.

I get that, Latrant, but everyone is coming out of the woodwork "asking" for so many items that would make an option list longer than on Porsche with the threat to cancel their order. Obviously a startup is not going to have many options because of economics. Things like the most profitable...

The more you ask for, the more it will cost.

This totally makes sense to reduce startup costs. Building a new engine manufacturing line would cost far more than any tariff. This also baby steps in to the Scout line. If wildly successful, then they could decide to build an engine production line in the US.

That is pretty cool. I was just touring Lamborghini's plant last week and I don't think they had the photo op for those expensive orders. They were coming off the line every 30 minutes. The Urus side may have been faster as that is the mass produced model.

Maybe he should go to the support page for assistance instead of a forum that can only guess. https://support.scoutmotors.com/en/

There is a 343k mile Nissan Leaf for sale on Autotrader. 99-03 Corbin Sparrows were city runabouts that I haven't seen many miles on. The Tesla Roadster was a paperweight when the battery died until the aftermarket support group came about upgrading and repairing batteries. Now, with...

BE the first with an ICE swap. You may be able to help supplement the cost with videos and selling the motor and battery or installing those in a classic International Scout. An old EV and a new ICE.

Great idea PMurphy(I like your pizza). I am sure they can let out a lot of non proprietary information that will be exciting to the average joe and not be a lost secret. There is a lot of cool stuff in fields like metallurgy, electrical engineering, robotics, paint process, manufacturing...

The want it now mentality is not satiated with a long term delivery. Luckily, I like to plan and 2 years goes by faster and faster. I would be stressed at Scout trying to reach the finish line in time. I am sure they have goals and milestones set to try and keep on track. I don't think...

Neps is right here. We can ask for everything and end up with a $250,000 ICON build that not even 1% of the people will buy. A new car is a starting place for the end user to modify as needed for their specific purpose. I actually think more fun is had building up the offroad beast than...

Add The Indicator and you have the trifecta.
