    Road oriented trim

    Yeah same here. I don't want/need 35s and all the off-road upgrades. Would be happy with some 32-33" trail terrain tires and minimal off-road goodies. I had a 2021 Bronco Big Bend and it was pretty stock (non-Sasquatch) and all I did was put some better tires on it. Was way more off-road ability...

    2027-2028 Scout EV Traveler SUV Colors (Assorted Previews)

    Cactus Gray is the only thing I miss about my Bronco. Loved that color!

    I canceled our two reservations

    I hear you - I'm driving an EV6 right now that I leased for $180 per month, going to be a tough pill to swallow converting that to a $700+ per month car payment. I have both a Scout and Rivian R2 reserved, I might just cancel both of them and lease another EV6 or Ioniq 5 next year.

    Estimated charge time for Level ll (home charger) for BEV or EREV models?

    BEV: 20-100% 14.3422 hours EREV: 20-100% 8.7756 hours ......ish. Seriously though, I have no idea.

    Anyone else losing excitement/interest?

    Totally understand how it's hard to be excited about an SUV with how things are going right now. A few months ago I was happily self-debating about having to choose between a Scout Traveler and Rivian R2, and figuring out if I'm going to wait on the Scout, get both, what configuration(s) I'd...

    New Traveler Sketches w/ new wheels style

    The split tailgate seems like a good idea to me, I'm fine with that. What I'm not good with is the swing-out tire carrier. If there is an option to delete it, I'll take it. If there isn't, I'll do it myself. After living with a swing-out tailgate on my Bronco for two years I vowed never to have...

    4-Cylinder Harvester EREV engine confirmed by CEO Scott! + 0-60mph, range, payload, towing specs discussions

    I must be getting old because my 6.5 second(ish) EV6 seems plenty fast for me, and shaving even two more seconds off that would be amazing - let alone three. I can't imagine needing something much faster than what I have for anything other than bragging rights.

    4-Cylinder Harvester EREV engine confirmed by CEO Scott! + 0-60mph, range, payload, towing specs discussions

    Hmm...yeah I'm starting to re-think my choice of the BEV. 150 miles should allow me to run on electric power 95% of the time but not have to stop and rapid charge on longer trips. Luckily I probably don't have to decide for another 1.5-2 years anyway.

    Confirmed: Bench Seat will have folding center w/ cupholders & arm rest

    I'm really hoping for a well-thought-out bench that is independently adjustable, has good accessories/cup holders/etc. when the center is folded, still allows HVAC vents/controls in the rear, etc. If they can't pull that off I might just pass on the entire vehicle. I know it sounds petty - but...

    EREV battery capacity deploying 6x faster than BEVs. Implications for Harvester?

    I live in San Diego and daily drive a 2024 EV6. Average 3.9mi/KwH (8k miles so far). I think 300 miles is reasonable to ask, especially given how cheap batteries are getting - so put a decent size battery pack in there Scout!

    EREV battery capacity deploying 6x faster than BEVs. Implications for Harvester?

    Glad we have options, I'm the opposite actually. All I want is the all-electric version and for it to have 300 miles or so of honest-to-god highway/cold weather range. I have zero interest in the Harvester if I can get that.

    EREV battery capacity deploying 6x faster than BEVs. Implications for Harvester?

    Simply put, people want more all-electric range so manufacturers are putting larger batteries in them. I don't see how this affects the Scout one way or the other.

    35" tires (35's) on the Scout - size 35x12.5R20 BFG KO3

    Give me 18" wheels and 33" tires please. No need for a 35.

    PowerCo: Possible Battery Manufacturer for Scout EV

    Dropping fast. Estimates were around $145-155 per kWh in the last year or two but the latest is putting them closer to $115. By the time Scout has to source them, I'd expect them to be well under $100 kWh. I doubt SSBs will be ready by then, but perhaps for a mid-cycle refresh around 2030.

    Current and future Scout Reservers: Have you cancelled reservation(s) or plans for other EVs?

    I'm somewhat partial to the smaller size and efficiency of the Rivian, I had a 2021 Bronco for two years and learned that I don't need that much off-road ability. The Scout might be overkill in that area and the extra size/expense might not be what I need. But it looks really cool, and life is...

    Current and future Scout Reservers: Have you cancelled reservation(s) or plans for other EVs?

    No, I have an R2 reservation though and am probably more likely to get that than the Scout.

    Current EV owners: are you sticking with full-EV or switching to EREV Harvester Scout?

    BEV for me. I have a 2024 EV6 that I leased as an experiment for owning an entirely electric vehicle, and it definitely convinced me I don't need gas.

    Instrument Cluster Gauge Display -- Opinions, Requests, Wish List

    As long as they don't do what Tesla does I'll be happy. A minimalistic HUD would be a nice touch though.

    Pricing & trim levels details in 12-18 months. Scout dedicated to $50-$51k estimated price for Traveler & Terra

    I'm perfectly fine with a bare-bones Traveler EV as long as it's range is over 300 miles. I can live without all the bells and whistles. If I can get that under $60K I'll be happy.

    Scout confirms more models coming in future. What models would you want?

    I'd love a midsize crew-cab pickup truck. Something comparable in size to a Tacoma, Colorado, etc. Honestly I'm baffled by the comments wanting something ICE-only. You have lots of options there already. Go buy a Wrangler, Bronco, or Landcruiser.
