2 Door

I think it’s important to offer a 2 door with a removable roof

This two-door/four-door debacle will last until SM decides to make a 2-door. And they should, a scout was a 2-door vehicle, and buyers should have the option for two-door in the future once technology improves. I was talking with my dad this weekend, and he seems pretty irritated that a 2-door is not an option. I have been talking with others, and they are irritated it is only going to be electric, not gas. Here is my opinion on the matter:

IF International Harvester was still around, they would be making a 4-door scout. They probably would have made one 20 years ago. That was the direction the market was headed, people needed to be able to haul the families around. I definitely think an IH Scout 4-door would have been an option by now, definitely by 2026.

Also, International harvester would be offering an electric variant by 2026. Again, the market was headed in this direction and they would have been going the same way.

IH was always ahead of market curves with the scout. The prototype for the Scout SSV in the 80's was fiberglass, which was way ahead of it's time. Not to mention the first Scout 80's were the first vehicle of it's kind, period. They had a turbo-diesel option before the big 3 put them in full sized pickups. Not only do I think International Harvester would have been offering a four-door and an electric option, I think they would have been the first ones doing it.

.... This is what I have to keep telling myself to convince myself to get one in 2026

I think those at Scout Motors here us loud and clear although their logic makes sense. I think those of us who are hell bent on a 2 door can have a compromise if the design of the back doors are hidden, for example like the FJ Cruiser.

Been on board with this idea as well. I think that would be the ideal solution

Now if we can just get Ford to bring back the t-tops on the Mustang!

I think the 4 door would suit better on the Traveller or TravellAll longer frame and wheel base. Just to throw idea's into the pot I think an extended cab door could pose a pretty solid option for the shorter wheelbase or even on the the concept art that's out now.

Having just posted the new Jimmy 4 door under competitors I’m now onboard with that size as a 4-door. Kinda wishing the Jimmy would come state side. Also wish Suzuki was better quality but maybe they’ve improved over last 5-8 years.

I thought you were talking about the old GMC Jimmy at first, LOL! You mean the Jimny…
