Man! I am starved for more information on these things after looking at these pictures. For one, the swing-out tire carrier looks easy to remove in these pictures.

NC doesn't allow direct to consumer sales. Everyone that has a Rivian picked up out of state.

one pedal, it's not even close.

Based on Rivian and Lightning reports the impact on range is is more due to aero than weight. Since it doesn’t appear Scout is going for an overly dramatic aerodynamic shape (Lucid style), I’m wondering if aero will be less of a concern here. Plus, in order to reach 350 miles of range in a...

21’ Egret Moccasin 210. Weighs about 3,000lbs with the full aluminum trailer. I need to be able to tow 150 miles to the coast. Real world, I need about 190 miles of range for security.

Government mandates have to be involved though. The vast majority of modern tech would not exist without some kind of government mandate to always improve. Imagine the Space Race... With that said, I agree with you. Any government incentives moving forward should be to standardize/improve...

If I can still get a decently equipped vehicle for under $70K I will still make the switch to the EV. A tax break would have been great but it's not a deal breaker.

I saw those on the RivianForums as well. I’m hoping it doesn’t come to that for scouts as well.

I agree there are better sounding options out there. BUT, there are several areas that I drive through without any cell service; the NC mountains, coastal NC when out on the beaches, WV going to Snowshoe, etc. While it's not a 'dealbreaker' to not have XM, I feel like it should be available.

I know people have anecdotally mentioned Scouts will have AA/CP, however, until it is listed on the scout motors website I still do not fully believe it.

Does anyone know if Scouts will have true SiriusXM? The prototypes and website images do not seem to have the usual shark fin antenna on top. Rivian has promised XM (for at least a year now I think) but it's only going to be a data streaming app, not the true XM satellite feed. I do have a...

I wouldn't call the fight already. While it's true the Scout will be using the Rivian framework, the implementation is going to be vastly different. Scout is going to have physical controls, Rivian doesn't (other than the limited steering wheel functionality) Scout is going to have coil sprung...

TLDR: Check out the Audi RS Q e-tron Hybrid Dakar Race car https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a39851967/audi-rs-q-e-tron-hybrid-race-car-first-drive/ We don't yet know and it depends. What you're asking boils down to the law of thermodynamics. If Scout puts a beefy ICE motor then what you're...

Nope, I think those prototypes are pretty representative of the final product. I think they will have either a metal or plastic pin that will fit inside of the tire carrier swing hinge to protect threads and keep the aesthetic as clean as possible. Also, the tire carrier can't simply attach to...

I doubt it. The Traveler has a spilt tailgate like a 200 series Land Cruiser, the Terra does not. While they might paint the black center tailgate trim shown on the prototypes, I wouldn’t hold my breath for that either. The black trim looks more like anodized aluminum or some other tough...

I highly doubt they would offer 2 different rear ends. My guess is the tire carrier will bolt to the bumper and be about a $1-2k option (not including the wheel and tire, prob a $2-3k total package). The bumper will be the same regardless, if it’s a lower trim and/or optioned without the tire...

It look like the rear tire carrier is a simple hinge pin with a retaining castle nut, like a prop on an Outboard Motor. It should be really easy to remove and hang on the garage wall. Really hope that is the case.

Personally, I want a basic app. PAAK is cool as long as it works and there's no delay, like Rivian owners just standing there waiting for their door handles to "present". The ability to set charging limits, PAAK, and temp remotely via the app is all I need. Charging limits just case I decide to...

The Traveler is pretty much the size of the new Land Cruiser 250: Width without Mirrors: 77.9" Width WITH Mirrors: 82.5 Overall Length: 196.4 Wheelbase: 112.2 Height: 75.7

Added mine. My primary concern right now is proximity to a Service Center. I'm only 3.5hrs from the factory, but for issues I would like to be closer. I know NC can be in issue for direct sales.
