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

    My VW and Audi dealer are one and the same. The dealership has changed names three different times in the past few years. They are well known for being a horrible dealership, the people that I know that own Audi drive three hours away to utilize a different dealer.
  2. Diesel engine for range extender (Harvester EREV)

    I am a strong supporter of a diesel power plant but since they are stuck on EV then at least a Diesel generator. It will be more fuel efficient and reliable. If a DEF is required, no biggie I’ll just delete it. I personally applaud VW for skirting the dumb emissions regulations, just hate they...
  3. Externally mounted Harvester - Ridiculous?

    I can assure you that just as many people are a hard nope because of the EV. I honestly have zero desire for a EV but I’m holding a reservation just in case I change my mind. I am someone that does spend 8 hours or more in a vehicle fairly regularly and a EV is pretty much useless to me because...
  4. Externally mounted Harvester - Ridiculous?

    I’m on my 4th Ford 6.7 diesel and over 1 million miles driven between those 4 trucks. Not one of them ever needed to go to a shop. I also don’t spend multiple hours refueling. If a diesel was offered it would outsell the EV 2 to 1……
  5. Externally mounted Harvester - Ridiculous?

    Or just put a diesel engine in the truck and get better range, good mileage, good torque and not have to worry about the EV problems
  6. Harvester EREV analysis & predictions: 3 cylinder gasoline engine, HP output, EV battery pack size, fuel tank location, approach departure angle

    A diesel generator would be more fuel efficient and have a much better lifespan. If they use gasoline it will just be another poor decision on powering this thing
  7. Traveler Ultimate Wish List for Scout Motors

    A diesel engine would be my first choice Solid front axle 4 link system in the front and 3 link in the rear Now that my first wants, and never will happen, are out of the way. At least make the strapped on generator a diesel. Front and rear lockers are a must. Bench seat available in all...
  8. VW dealers / NADA may sue to change Scout's direct-to-customer business plan

    I would walk from my reservation if forced to deal with a local VW dealer. My local dealership has changed names 3 times in the past decade, they are the sole reason I won’t consider buying an Audi for my wife.
  9. Smallest size wheel that fits is 18" inch. Anyone prefer 17" ?

    17” would be preferable if it’s going to really off road. Based on what I’ve seen there really isn’t enough capability in these to need the extra tire.
