  1. What differentiates Terra Pickup Truck vs. other EV competitors for you?

    The Terra exceeds my Ram's payload rating by 800 lbs and it's tow rating by 2500 lbs. So it's more than enough truck for my needs.

  2. 📊 1,000+ Scout reservations on tracking list! Stats on take rates & options preferences

    After Lordstowns infamous "100,000" pre-order debacle, I don't blame them lol.

  3. Question about EREV Extended Range EVs on Long Trips (Harvester Gas Engine)

    You're who it's marketed for. You'll probably never run out of charge on EV either, but the Harvester makes you feel secure. In reality, if you actually tried to coast to coast with a trailer in one, you'd be filling that little gennie tank every 75 miles because it can't keep up. But, 99%...

  4. 📊 1,000+ Scout reservations on tracking list! Stats on take rates & options preferences

    Maybe I'm biased, but I'm surprised there aren't more Terra orders.

  5. Question about EREV Extended Range EVs on Long Trips (Harvester Gas Engine)

    I suppose it's perfect if you are on the road all day every day. I daily drive a truck I've personally put 342,000 miles on, and I'm not on the road all day every day. Maybe once a year I tow across several states. 99% of the time I'm just going to work, a supplier, a customer. 250 miles of...

  6. Question about EREV Extended Range EVs on Long Trips (Harvester Gas Engine)

    So, like everyone else, I don't know how the Harvester works for sure. I can speculate, I'm an engineer, in the automotive field no less. The Ramcharger can keep up with the EV demand infinitely, as long as it has fuel in the tank. Or you can plug it in like a PHEV. This is more efficient...

  7. VW dealers / NADA may sue to change Scout's direct-to-customer business plan

    Yes, this, sorry to be unclear. I loathe the entire dealer experience, high pressure BS sales tactics, constantly telling my wife we're gonna die if we don't get a fuel system treatment, that our vehicle is in demand, bait and switch pricing... I'm not signing a deal with 8k in warrantys and...

    Not as bothered as I am by my squarebody Chevy's that have a door on each side of the truck

  11. VW dealers / NADA may sue to change Scout's direct-to-customer business plan

    Dealers have had a monopoly for decades, and Tesla and EV start up's are bringing it down. Hope VW wins.

  12. Towing what with your future Scout? -- Using Traveler or Terra?

    Trailer is 1700, TDI 4runner is 4200. Also have a 78 C10 that's about 3400, and a 88 D100 that's also about 3400.

  13. What differentiates Terra Pickup Truck vs. other EV competitors for you?

    I use my truck to haul things, not like shot shot trucker or mobile mechanic, but more than my fellow colleagues at work who's bed covers have never been off and haul a camper 1 time a year. I haul 1k in the bed once a week, 8k on a trailer once a month, and drive 200 miles a day minimum. So...

  14. What are you driving until Scout release date? Photos thread!

    My daily is a 18 Ram Ecodiesel, it's got 440,000 on it, so I have my doubts that it will make it another 3 years or so, but we'll see.
