  1. 2027 Scout Reservation Deposits List - Tracker & Stats 📋 📊

    Yikes, the list of death keeps getting longer. Still holding out hope.
  2. 2027 Scout Reservation Deposits List - Tracker & Stats 📋 📊

    The reservation numbers are not issued in consecutive order so none of us know where we are in the line. Also people don’t always post to this site immediately upon ordering. As was just announced with the Harvester, production will partially be staged by options/groups of option which will...
  3. New Rival: 2026 Jeep Recon Revealed

    I saw the release today. IF there is a “generous” initial lease program might consider getting one to tie me over until the Scout arrives. Recon doesn’t have the same visual impact or target performance as the Scout. Starting price of $60k (2025 dollars) indicates Scout will REALLY have to work...
  4. Scout gift for reservation holders - Any guesses?

    I had some issues a couple of days ago. I think high traffic on the site is making it “jumpy”. Try again at different times of day to see it it helps.
  5. Smog Check required for Harvester EREV gas engine in the Scout?

    Ordered BEV but never thought of emissions check on Harvester. In WI the lib’s likely won’t give the Harvester a break (only a half green vehicle especially with smaller battery and towing capability). Likely will charge the Harvester models full EV license fuel surcharge and take your gas tax...
  6. 20 Scout Service Centers Locations

    No details yet. Looking at the reservation tracker tells where the demand is. Hoping for a Chicago or Minneapolis/St Paul upper Midwest option.
  7. Audi to build a luxury Off-Roader SUV (Hybrid EREV range-extender) on Scout platform

    Sounds like another vote for direct to consumer sales. My take on the high end dealership is they feel empowered to overcharge you for everything because you have $$ and they can. I use well qualified private shops where available as soon as the warranty is expired (I avoid the extended warranty...
  8. Scout gift for reservation holders - Any guesses?

    No info, Jelly of the month club membership?!
  9. Suspension differences

    The Discovery, and prior gen MB G Wagons, are the only European SUV’s that hold my attention. The Discovery is engineered for off-road capability and is used that way in other parts of the world. Most off-road capable vehicles in the US see very little dirt/mud/rock duty (mainly snow duty for my...
  10. Suspension differences

    Great question RE coil springs vs. air suspension. I am still at the “not for me” phase. No_Remorse pretty well laid out my understanding of the issues. With coil springs you get more flexibility on lift kits/ride height modifications though within design limits the air suspension flexible ride...
  11. Electric-only people get in here! Who's going full EV only? 🔋

    THANKS for opening this thread. Went full EV on initial order. Plan to keep my ICE rides in addition to the Scout. I was interested in Scout as soon as the initial stories started to come out. I want the reduced driving cost/ maintenance benefits of EV and a vehicle that is new and unique. IF...
  12. Scout Traveler with 22" inch wheels & Terra coming to LA Auto Show

    Not to sure about the wheels BUT the Terra color is AWSOME!
  13. Report: Scout EV Delayed. Only Hybrid Harvester at Launch / Start of Production

    Wow! Delaying the BEV’s makes perfect sense from a business standpoint but… For now I will sit tight and see how things develop. Not willing to bail on a Traveler BUT like most of us, I still have a lot of questions about the Harvester. Looks like the “get rid of the frunk” argument has legs...
  14. Zonal phone call control

    I am also am looking for a simple and reliable off-road capable vehicle BUT PROFIT is the reason manufacturers sell (push) high option vehicles (i.e. Jeep Grand Wagoneer). Scout will be needing high margin vehicles out of the gate to surge its cash flow. Those of you wanting a grand touring...
  15. Harvester Selection -- use the gas engine to keep the batteries close to fully charged?

    Quoting colnnwn “There is little chance that the Harvester would turn on with 70% battery power under an Optimize setting. I can't remember what they said they planned to call this mode exactly. That's too close to the normal limit that a battery should be charged to and stored at. In Tow mode I...
  16. Time to give up the frunk (if you want the Harvester engine)...

    I ordered the BEV Traveler. The Harvester is likely a safer bet BUT if I need both drive systems to make the Scout work for me I’ll save the $$ and keep driving my 1500 diesel pick up with 700+ mile range between fill ups. Let’s see if Scout can surprise us all with a innovative and effective...
  17. 2027 Scout Reservation Deposits List - Tracker & Stats 📋 📊

    The administrator has to approve the request. Looks like the admin responded to your initial post. Should show up soon!
  18. Harvester Selection -- use the gas engine to keep the batteries close to fully charged?

    Vehicle software will likely engage the Harvester to maximize vehicle range and performance without the driver making that decision. As long as you started with fuel in the gas tank and a reasonable level of charge you should make your trip with only a possible stop to top off the gas tank...
