I never tow, only haul. Payload is fine for my needs but I get how this could be a non starter for some folks. Maybe Scout will listen. I am somewhat tempted to switch to EV instead of EREV, but for now I’m keeping my Harvester reservation. I don’t need to buy a truck. My 2014 Tundra has 150k...

I would like to know this as well.

Shades of grey with maybe a little color as accents pieces like the scout logo or stitching. Red preferably. Or maybe even a blue dominant plaid. My first truck was a 1969 Chevy C10 with a blue bench seat. I’m not an earth tone guy but I appreciate the color scheme on the Traveler demo car. I...

I like what Dodge is doing with this truck. That said, at this point, I'm sticking with the Terra Harvester. Here are a few reasons why. - 800 volt system - Aesthetics and interior design - Zonal architecture (not sure if Dodge will have something like this or not TBH) - Frunk - Offroad...

I'm planning to keep my reservation as-is for now. We are pretty far out from getting solid information since they are literally still doing the engineering for these vehicles. Once we have solid commits on specs, I will decide if I want to keep the Harvester option or not. I placed my...

haha, ya they are little. I have an 2012 (NC aka mk3 aka 3rd gen aka boat) so it’s slightly less tiny, but I barely fit in it. Flying Miata exhaust, Racing Beat sways, Koni yellow adjustable struts with Progress springs. Konig wheels and summer tires. It’s a special edition in white with a black...

Damn, that’s terrible! I used to have an 87 Buick Century that I loved until some lady in a lifted jeep decided to run over the corner of it. When the Mazda Miata was first announced in the 80s, I was so excited about it that I carried an article about it in my wallet. I had always wanted one...

Sorry to hear that!

The Scout Terra will replace my 2014 Tundra. Honestly it’s going to be hard to say goodbye to “Bear”. This truck has been extremely good to me and my family. 100% reliable, capable, utilitarian, comfortable, spacious, and good looking. Like the Terra, the Tundra already has a power rear...

ya I’m thinking about cargo, tent, etc. The rack they had on the Terra at CES with the light bar and satellite was pretty sweet.

For the different roof option, cabana, glass, steel, I wonder if they will have different ratings for how much status and dynamic weight they can support. It would be nice if they all had the same strength.

I didn’t realize fuel weighed so much less than water! My math was wrong. ~650lb difference is pretty interesting. That’s the weight of 3 good sized passengers. Sounds like Harvester models may have a higher power to weight ratio.

At 18mpg equivalent, the fuel would weigh 50% more than that by my math, but maybe still lighter than battery? What would 350 miles of battery range weigh roughly? 350 range of battery vs 150 on battery plus gas engine and tank + fuel.

Most of my driving fits inside 150 miles round trip, so I suppose that would work for me. It will be interesting to see the weight difference between the EV and EREV. Gas isn’t light and neither is an engine, so it might not be terribly far off. I need to think about this some more, as I was...

Oh! I didn’t realize that! I just assumed the quote was an error.

That’s not what Scout Motors website says. “Pure electric models offer up to 350 miles of range. Scout’s extended range models offer 500 miles of range or more through a built-in, gas-powered generator.”

I thought it was 350 on battery alone and 150 more with range extender.

Am I the only one that is wondering if there will be an aftermarket fuel cell to boost range even more without refueling? I don’t think we know the tank capacity yet, but I’m guessing 5 gallons based on the rear mounted Jerry can they showed at CES.

That is the biggest debate for me as well. I’m leaning toward bench for the nostalgia and so my dog can lay down next to me, but I haven’t been able to decide which is more important. Seat comfort is a factor as well. The m not sure if the bench seat will offer the same comfort on long drives...

I’ve watched several videos from CES, but this one included several details I had not heard before. For example, the strap in the door that goes from the speaker across the bottle storage is meant to represent the water fording depth it is capable of. Or that the pull out tray for the front...
