    Is Scout dead in the water? I'm not buying it at a 10-25% tariff added cost.

    I assuming that they won't and I imagine that is one of the reason they are in South Carolina as a right to work state. However, they are going to have to get some experienced production workers into a brand new production line. They can't all be rookies. They are going to have to offer...

    Is Scout dead in the water? I'm not buying it at a 10-25% tariff added cost.

    That sounds about right. That would mean most line workers at Scout would be paid between $55k and $75k annually. Yes, these prices will be reflected in the trucks, just like they have been in F150s. I have always assumed that a well equipped Traveler will be at least $65k before tax credits.

    Start of production coming late 2027 for Scout vehicles (update by Scout 1/20/25)

    Adjusted for inflation, the price of gas is not high. In Texas (near refineries and distribution centers), I paid $2.76 a gallon. Nationally, the average cost of a gallon of gas on 1/22/25 is $3.12 a gallon. The price of gas on 6/1/22 was $5.01 a gallon. Source: AAA...

    Roof top colors - multiple being considered, including body color matching

    I would say black roof color especially with the cabana top. I like the contrast. I could see them offering body color for additional money though. Personally, I just want that burnt orange one on the reveal. Clone it and that's what I order.
