Accessories Poll For Scouts

[Jamie@ScoutMotors]

Hi all,

At the request of the Scout Community, we are looking for feedback on your most requested Scout Traveler and Scout Terra accessories. You can vote for your top five, but our teams will consider anything added to the poll. If you would like us to add more items to the poll, please respond below, and I can add them.

I’d like to see roof lights integrated into the rack or at least attachable in a low profile manner. KC lights and similar are fun but a low profile set of LED or HID lights to light the front area of the vehicle would be great for tasks at dusk or after dark

Running boards?

 

[chucchinchilla]

Removeable spare tire carrier for Traveler.
What's on there looks awesome but would be cumbersome on a daily driver. Would be great to attach it when doing road trips then keep the spare/rack in the garage the rest of the time. If a body mounted rack can't be achieved, then a swing out hitch mounted rack would suffice. Note I will probably go this route either way, but I'm sure Scout could come up with a more elegant solution than what's out there.

Running boards?

Electric powered running boards.

 

[LastDayScout]

Moulded contoured all weather floor mats and matching cargo mat. The cargo mat needs to fold so you can easily access the under floor storage.

Running boards?

Functional and good looking running boards

I think what they did is the better option

A ramp for dogs with a touch of arthritis and/or wheeled things?

 

[Bodie]

Running boards that stick out far enough to prevent door dings.

I’d like to note that when I vote for rock rails, they can be very multi-functional. There are many examples out there that not only provide rocker protection when off road, but they also double as a step to get in (without sacrificing ground clearance) and be able to hand wash the roof or access a roof rack. They can also stick out far enough to keep excess mud and rocks off of the sides of the vehicle and keep parking lot scabs from giving you door dings. Done right, they can serve many purposes all at once.

I was thinking the same thing. Rock sliders that also function as a step. I have the factory rock sliders on my TRX and they have a small step built in (I’d like the step to be slightly larger).

Found myself selecting most all of the options until I read "top five" from @Jamie@ScoutMotors

100% agree.

I don’t want steps that stick out below rock sliders. But I’m ok with sliders than can function as a step. I just want the sliders to be smooth. So no protrusions below the slider, or along the slider.

I also don’t (personally) want running boards. They get ripped off too easily. Although if somehow a step deployed from a rock rail/under the vehicle, that would be ok too.

There are a lot of things I want, but in general I would probably prefer to handle with aftermarket parts. So my first would be working with aftermarket providers.

I will want an aftermarket front off road bumper with bull bar. But aftermarket can give a lot of options here. I will probably want a front winch, but again - aftermarket can offer a lot of options here as well. I will probably want off road lighting - but I have my own after market preference here as well. Quality floor mounts - aftermarket. I might be willing to get OEM rock rails, OEM accessory switches could be nice if done correctly. I WILL want roof bars or moreover a roof rack - but honestly, My main request there is a roof with GOOD attachment points. I will also probably put a dog divider in - aftermarket. Actual mollie style panels - well I am sure if I really want them aftermarket could cover that as well.

Agreed - I voted sparingly (Paint Protection Film, Frunk Fridge, Rock Sliders, Roof Rack) because while it would be awesome to get great accessories for all the things on the list directly from SM, based on other brands on the market the aftermarket companies will likely come out with great options

Factory window tint. Of course, it would be legal limits. Dealerships sell it on new cars as a profit center, but it is convenient to pick up your new vehicle with it already done.

 

[Lost in the Scout]

1)Window tint

2)Air compressor. Or maybe an open place to put one with the wiring in place?

3)Bidirectional charging, or a way to power a home with power outages. Have the harvester integrated into this.

4)A “camping mode” to heat or cool the traveler when parked. Let you limit the max watt hours used.

5) Tire chains.

6). Recovery points that can use a high lift jack on all corners

 

[RebelliousPeasant]

Can the vinyl exterior graphics be 80's-inspired and run down the side of the vehicle?!?

 

[ID_ENG]

I didn't see an option for Bed Shell / Camper Shell. That's high on my list.
