    Goodbye EVs in the US?

    The first step has been taken. The dismantling of government owned EV chargers and the sale of all government owned EVs. Pretty sure you can guess what comes in the following years although I don’t know how he’s going to rip out the private charging networks. As I’ve been feeling for a while...

    So many missing thread errors

    Apologies, could not find the forum support area. I’ve noticed an increasing amount of what I assume are deleted threads recently. Now, I can’t clear the alert for yet another deleted thread. Why so many lately? Here’s the message I’m seeing with increasing frequency:

    How close must a Scout Service Center location be to you? Poll

    I will drive up to 45 minutes but that’s likely my limit. Anything further away or that forces me to drive through a big city is likely a no-go. How about you?

    I'm skeptical of the range numbers [efficiency, charging speed discussions]

    Been doing a lot more reading up on EVs, PHEV, Hybrids, etc. I'm starting to think that with today's (or the near future's) battery tech, 350 miles is highly optimistic. Why you ask? Scout's coefficient of drag has to be very high, it's not exactly aerodynamic All terrain tires will rob about...

    Will the large spare be optional?

    For us that don’t normally go deep off-road do you think we can choose not to have the rear mounted spare? In many cases, that spare will make it impossible to get access to the rear cargo area in a normal two car garage.

    Should I double up and place ANOTHER pre-order?

    At this point, my Traveler with the Harvester option might not be the best option for me. Should I reserve both or would it best to wait and change it at confirmation time should I desire the non-Harvester option?
