Anyone hear of a projected date for this to open?

RIVIAN SOFTWARE CHIEF CONFIRMS SCOUT WILL USE THEIR TECHNOLOGY Scout Motors, Volkswagen's new electric vehicle (EV) branch, has introduced its first two models. The company plans to leverage software and zonal architecture developed through a partnership with Rivian. Wassym Bensaid, Rivian's...

Any rear charge port location SUCKS for trailer towing. There are almost no pull-through stations so far. The left-side side-saddle Superchargers would work but that's only one per station and not all stations are set up with one. That means you have to disconnect your trailer. Since it's a...

Yes, this is much wider than the original Scouts. However it is narrower than a Raptors if you include mirrors (96"), body does seems wider than the Raptor body

It all depends on the aerodynamics of the trailer. Generally the answer is a 50% penalty. Low trailer with limited drag penalty drops to 25%. Really tall and wide trailer, maybe 75% penalty. Weight is trivial vs aero.

I love the option. It's great for a dog to lie with its head in your lap! Also great for wife and a kid to both be in front for adventures. Hard to lose that great console, though. We'll see.

Yes, this is much wider than the original Scouts. However it is narrower than a Raptor if you include mirrors (96"), Scout body (91.6") does seems wider than the Raptor body (86").

Most vehicle purchases are about passion for the design.

Driver's side rear is awesome for Supercharger compatibility. Any rear charge port location SUCKS for trailer towing. There are almost no pull-through stations so far. The left-side side-saddle Superchargers would work but that's only one per station and not all stations are set up with one...

Personally, I prefer all EV but this may be a good application for an EREV. I reserved the Harvester but may change that if I order. Why would I get the EREV? Since it's a serial hybrid, you only need to use it when you really need it. My wife and I pulled a 24' travel trailer across country...

The Rivian is a great adventure truck. This looks better.

What an amazing homage! The bench seat is even more useful than it was in my Scout II now that there aren't one or two shift levers in the way.

Owning an F-150 Lightning for the last two years, including towing a travel trailer across country and back last year and Maryland to Texas and back for the eclipse this year, I am confident full EV is practical for most truck use. However, I will agree with you that EREV provides more options...

Terra represent! My first "car" was an International Harvester Scout II. My next truck may be a Scout Terra.

What do you want to bet they were held up by the politicians?

And now they’re late for the late start

Nice to hear they are using the old Terra & Traveler names.

Looks like the event is 30 minutes later than announced. I hope that’s not an indication of how the roll-out will go.

OK, I guess the link will show up when we get close to the event. Thanks.
