I have a Traveler EV reservation and plan to sit tight until I can actually drive/ride in a Harvester (either). Interested in how the gas engine changes ride/noise/vibration/ harshness of the vehicle. Also how/when engine kicks in for charging on the move. Can live with EV range of 275 mi (time...

We’ll see as it plays out. I love my ICE PU trucks/Jeep and V8 car BUT as a hopeless mechanical addict, I also want to have a EV. I knew Scout was the one as soon as it was announced in 2022. Confirmed as soon as I saw the pic’s. Also drawn to the reduced maintenance needs of EV’s and the charge...

I think answering the question of factory available off road protection for the battery/vulnerable motor/control components is important for Scout to address sooner rather than later. Scout has positioned itself as an off road capable vehicle but the initial promo vehicles appeared to only have...

I think it is a Stallantis hang over. They have hung Jeep out to dry for 3+ years and now are paying the price.

Car and Driver has released pic’s/initial details of the Jeep Recon EV which are now available on the Jeep website: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a63805271/2025-jeep-recon-ev-first-photos-revealed/ My initial impression reinforces my decision to reserve a Scout Traveler. The Travelers...

Scout buyers are a diverse crowd with an amazing range of vehicles. Really enjoyed seeing the pic’s. Will add my 23 Gladiator diesel to the party. Purchased it as my drive it to the end vehicle (we’ll see if the EcoDiesel holds up its’ end of the bargain). Will likely spare the Scout Traveler...

I have always had mixed feelings about EV gas tax exemption (roads don’t fix themselves). If you look at truck plates the weight of vehicle determines the registration fee. Can’t really argue that increased weight does not increase road damage and obviously EV’s weigh more than ICE counterparts...

Scout has stated $60k as a target price and out the door prices close to $50k “with incentives” (which may be long gone by likely 2028 delivery). In defense of Scout the projected content level is NOT a stripper with above average range (300+ miles) and 2 high output motors (0-60 3.5 sec)...

IF solid state batteries are emerging by 2028 production timeline would pay extra as an option (keeps stated starting price intact BUT significantly moves technology ahead).

My experience has been that sales tax is collected by the state DMV where the vehicle will reside at the time of vehicle registration. Dealers may collect the sales tax and forward (often done between adjoining states) or the dealer may issue a temp plate (keep copy of sales doc’s with car)...

I recall hearing that vehicles were being delivered by a manufacturer on tribal land since tribal government is not subject to state laws. Scout could set up a delivery center at a nice hotel on tribal land, put together package prices to stay over if you want to make a mini vacation of the...

Take the time needed to get things right. Progress since 2022 announcement has been impressive. Recent addition of Rivian as a technology partner should be plus.
