I also have a deposit on a Ramcharger order slot. The initial range estimates were and are good for how i drive. However, now seeing 27 gallons of gas acting as a generator only, affords me only 690 miles of range, my initial excitement is tempered. Currently I can drive over 900 miles on 33...
Point taken and yes a valid one. There are also many unknowns at this point, and many that could also be a disappointment for me as well and a deal breaker. Manufacturers can seemingly say all the right things three years from production, and then the final product is ultimately just a watered...
Respectfully, I'm not wrong. My wants and needs simply differ from yours. It's not a pissing contest at all. I would just much rather have a 600-700 total range than a 3.5 second 0-60 SUV.
As the owner of a 4 sec 0-60 car, I understand how seldom you can truly utilize this level of power and quickness. Not to mention the suspension and brakes needed to safely control all of it. If Scout can produce a real world 5.5 sec 0-60 vehicle I will be MORE than satisfied. That's absolutely...
Everyone has their own fight. I know the EV credits are huge to certain people. For me, if states continue to fight customer direct purchasing, that's big for me. I think the dealers are the evil elephant in the room. End rant
I may be in the minority here, but I'm interested in the Scout Motors vehicles entirely because of the vehicle itself. The look, the throwback styling, but with modern amenities and technologies. I would be equally interested if it was a full ICE vehicle. So the incentives, any mandates or any...
As much as I would like to see it personally, I agree for all the reasons mentioned above. Plus, anything with VW and diesel would likely be dead in the water immediately.
I personally never agreed with the tax credit incentives from the very beginning. I'm not currently an EV owner, but my interest in this new Scout had nothing to do with receiving a tax credit or not. Bottom line is, at the end of the day if I feel the product warrants the price asked, I'll buy...
As the owner of a Ram Ecodiesel 110% for diesel from an efficiency standpoint. Emission standards aren't going away, but for a powerplant to strictly be used as a generator there's got to be a way. It would be huge.
