Arnt USMCA parts and vehicles exempt from the tarrifs? Weren't these tarrifs aimed at China mostly? I don't think this is as big as a deal as its made out to be.. Unless you're buying 4runners built in Japan in about 1 year it takes them to figure out how to implement .
The stupid part about getting hung up on tariff is that the cdn dollar depreciated at least 10% and the carbon tax is only going up. Solve those two and it would go a long way to helping your purchase power. Vote the liberals and you'll be ok. The trade war is about Chinese owning govt...
I'm a little disappointed it's not 250 ev range in the harvester that's the magic number to do a lot of there&back trips because I'm expecting to get a much smaller % on that quoted range.
Will these be able to do the tank turns like the rivian? It's very useful on trails. With a wrangler I could million point turn and use the rear tire to beat back brush but with the scout I'd be worried about scratching up all that plastic.
Is it true they removed the feature due to fear it...
retractable bars don't last long where it snows in the winter. Salt and sand get into it and it locks up. It would need constant winter maintenance to have any chance of lasting.
Extra wide Rock rail sliders that double as steps might be needed from day 1. Not those TRD ladder steps that just...
This may be dumb but.. A big draw in EV is not being a high theft item. With big ground clearance Could the harvester at the rear have a catalytic converter that is very easy for a thief to access? Maybe. I hope it's protected however small it could be.
So harvester heating the ba
Wife and kids need to be able to jump in or I can't buy it. If it's too crazy height out the door I'll have to cancel my reservation. It's a daily driver and some households only have one car. my dog has no issue jumping into a jeep on its own but there's a limit on...
Some ev like kia ev9 don't allow power on warmup or whatever with doors locked I believe... It needs like camp mode, sentry mode, dog mode.
Imagine if there were phsycial spare "hot key" buttons that you could program digitally to do whatever combination of commands you wanted?
I would like to lower my car for fuel economy and ease of entry 90% of the time for short family members and only raise it when I'm off roading at Costco 10% the rest.
Does anyone have videos of someone of regular height Getting into a scout seat with 35's? I want to know how accessible it would be for short people. It looks to be a tall climb for a daily driver worried the wife or kids will struggle. Retractable runners don't last with salt roads. Combo rock...
So I should be able to car camp overnight in a Traveller with the heat on? I hope the seats fold flat!
Edit: I looked it up. Tesla does have a "camp" mode. That is what this car needs. Allow it to run HVAC and only HVAC long term. <1.6kw/hr so 1-2% of a tesla battery per hour
Traveller harvester. Dislike the smaller battery but range and towing range is more important. (lots of chargers here in mall lots, no trailer friendly stations)
I am not opposed to scout making a baby bronco or mini land cruiser for street use. But don't sully the flagship. It Needs to be a...
This is the worst idea ever from a a branding and legacy standpoint. It stands against what this car represents. You need a different model and possibly a different brand.
Just the other day in Ontario our highway got shutdown due to snow squall and people were stranded for most of the day. Overlanders like myself also car camp and would love to have the harvester model help provide cabin heat. Theres got to be a way to provide 10+ hrs heat exchanger support at...
I don't like the sound of that my city is filled with thieves. I would want to weld it on permanently.
maybe there's room for a spare down below if you don't get a harvester.
