Poll- What have you Reserved... Let's get a small idea of the take rates.

  • From all of us at Scout Motors, welcome to the Scout Community! We created this community to provide Scout vehicle owners, enthusiasts, and curiosity seekers with a place to engage in discussion, suggestions, stories, and connections. Supportive communities are sometimes hard to find, but we're determined to turn this into one.

    Additionally, Scout Motors wants to hear your feedback and speak directly to the rabid community of owners as unique as America. We'll use the Scout Community to deliver news and information on events and launch updates directly to the group. Although the start of production is anticipated in 2026, many new developments and milestones will occur in the interim. We plan to share them with you on this site and look for your feedback and suggestions.

    How will the Scout Community be run? Think of it this way: this place is your favorite local hangout. We want you to enjoy the atmosphere, talk to people who share similar interests, request and receive advice, and generally have an enjoyable time. The Scout Community should be a highlight of your day. We want you to tell stories, share photos, spread your knowledge, and tell us how Scout can deliver great products and experiences. Along the way, Scout Motors will share our journey to production with you.

    Scout is all about respect. We respect our heritage. We respect the land and outdoors. We respect each other. Every person should feel safe, included, and welcomed in the Scout Community. Being kind and courteous to the other forum members is non-negotiable. Friendly debates are welcomed and often produce great outcomes, but we don't want things to get too rowdy. Please take a moment to consider what you post, especially if you think it may insult others. We'll do our best to encourage friendly discourse and to keep the discussions flowing.

    So, welcome to the Scout Community! We encourage you to check back regularly as we plan to engage our members, share teasers, and participate in discussions. The world needs Scoutsā„¢. Let's get going.

A few reasons it wonā€™t be 80k

-no ā€œstealershipsā€ involved

-as batteries tech improves, cheaper manufacturing becomes. Thereā€™s a battery that uses no mined materials that is said to be better than any battery seen before with faster charging and better life overall.

-hopefully by 2027 the market has gone back to pre-COVID levels.
Exactly! On all three accounts!
 
I have been a Tahoe guy for a long time and this is the first electric SUV that looks like it could be an actual replacement! Very Excited. 3" shorter than a Tahoe but same height and I am guessing same width with the mirrors out. (91.6" looks very wide considering a Hummer H1 is 85.6" wide)
I'm a Trailblazer girl. Mine is an '06, and I've taken really good care of her which is why it's still running well today. Haven't seen anything to replace it with until the Scout. Length is an issue, as it's 15" longer than my Trailblazer. Going to have to look at a garage upgrade.
 
I reserved the Traveler but I'm Terra-curious. I have a hybrid Maverick today and like having a Truck, but I park in a garage in Manhattan, and mid-size and full-size trucks are a bit big.
 
I wonder how many Harvester people have no EV experience, and how many do have EV experience and just want some added buffer and wouldn't mind having a secondary sub-system in their trucks?

In other words, if you already have an EV truck or car, are you in the minority (like me) ordering the pure EV because you know 350 miles of range is great and you would happily take it? Theory being that we have a ton of potential converts coming in for the Scout that want that "extra peace of mind" that the Harvester was (no doubt) designed to deliver? If so, that is great stuff for the new EV people if that 500 mile mark makes them more comfortable. Either way, I give props to Scout for rallying (see what I did there) those on the fence.

Having just under 300 miles of range in my R1T on 20's and AT's is pretty great, but grabbing ~60 or so more miles on AT's would be even better. Based on my current usage and road trips, I would rarely be able to take advantage of the Harvester. BUT, I also realize that I have this understanding (and comfort) because I have 40K miles on my truck, and would prefer the simplicity of 350 miles range from a pure EV...
 
I reserved the Traveler Harvester model as there are a few places (state and National parks) I wish to travel and spend a few days that donā€™t have public chargers yet.
 
Finally put my money where my mouth is and reserved a Terra + Harvester.

Hopefully my confirmation number isn't indicative of me being 7th billion person in line šŸ˜¬

I'm indecisive, so I reserved both the versions of the Traveler. I realize we can modify our reservation, but I wonder if it would restart your place in line if you changed a vehicle/option a year or two from now?

No. From the support page:

"Yes, you can change your vehicle selection on your reservation anytime by signing into your account. Making this change will not impact your place in the queue, but it may impact your delivery timing depending on the options you select."

I have a small farm and have been wanting an EV truck for a while. Ordered an f150 lightning but ended up not being able to purchase it due to other life events.

I don't have a connection to scout vehicles, but this is the vehicle that I have been looking for. 6+ seats, towing capacity, range, off-road abilities. My concern is that it's going to have to have a massive (heavy) battery to achieve the range.

I am back and forth between the Terra and the Traveler. The pickup format is useful, however my wife really loves that 'cabana' roof on the Traveler.
So this might be a bit too late, but the cabana top will be available on the Terra at release.

Keeping options open to jump to battery only Traveler if the development of Harvester means a generator is going to be running constantly. Would prefer a 400 mile battery only, to be honest.

Tesla owner here. Second car is a 625 mile per fill VW V6 TDI Touareg.

150 miles battery only is too little. 350 (or 297 actual, LOL) is fine. Harvester will be constantly running with such a low battery only range. For people who drive hybrids, this may feel acceptable. As a happy BEV driver, it doesnā€™t make me happy.

My fantasy for Traveler is that, by the time they are in production, we see battery range increase to 225 on Harvester version, and 400 on non-Harvester version.

Iā€™ll definitely punch out of Harvester if they can break 400 on battery only version. The 150 thing is making me feel like Iā€™m buying a Prius.
 
I think you may need to dial back some expectations. They said up to 350 mi EV and they showed a truck with 35s. They didnā€™t say a truck with 35s will get 350 miles. I would bet that a base version with like 32ā€ tires will get 350mi and an off-road package with 35s will get significantly less than that. Thatā€™s a big brick to push through the air.

We're all electric with a '22 Mustang (312 miles EPA range) and '23 Lightning (320 miles EPA range) with 50,000 miles total, mostly road tripping around the southwest US. I won't go back to gas. There's nothing about it that appeals to me. I don't even rent gas vehicles on work trips anymore. Reserved a Traveler EV.

No doubt about the many variables that will come into play with the range equation for the pure BEV - including wheels and tires. With my AT's Rivian states a 10-15% range reduction on my R1T. I also run Nokian Hakka LT3's in the winter (different tread) but run in colder temps and see about the same reduction on the LT3. With the Scout being designed (and shown) as a more rugged & off-road oriented truck, and with 800V architecture, and with what will hopefully be a very good-sized battery and BMS, who knows where we might actually end up in a couple of years in terms of range figures with AT's. Everything is getting better, lighter, faster and more efficient, so my hope is that range figures do come close to a 350 number as you see the Terra spec's today. It is completely achievable. Once you start customizations (add a winch, add a rack, add a RTT, lift the truck, add chunkier tires and reduce wheel sizes, etc. you are on your own in terms of range). The current proportions based on the Terra reveal look great, so I wouldn't want to stray too far from what was shown to maximize efficiency. Performance will be very good in that configuration.

Personally, and one thing I would eventually love to see Scout drop in a "package" eventually would be a "YETI" edition or "Terra Arctic edition" or something along those lines. For those of us that use a truck on snow more than rock, or live in cold climates and deal with freeze/ thaw, it would be really cool to have some things like additional heating elements in some areas, a slightly narrower wheel size (which would provide better traction for dedicated snows) and perhaps some additional efficiency options for better range in cold conditions. Could be a heat pump, could be using the same pull-out door handles, but in a recessed rectangle on the door so the handles are essentially "flush" to the body. Lots of possibilities for a cold weather package option for these trucks.
 
I reserved the Traveler Harvester, but may switch to the basic Traveler once I get a better idea of the cost. I have an 800 and a Scout II, and Iā€™m really looking forward to having one of these to drive the family around in.

Is the 150 mile estimate confirmed by someone from Scout? That is really low with the Harvester (which I reserved). It would be fine for commuting to work I guess, but the EV savings wouldn't really be there on trips. I am wondering if there will be a larger battery option to go along with the Harvester especially for people who are interested in towing.
