Are you still a Scout buyer without $7500 EV tax credit?

[SooprB]

If Scout can reach their price-points I am in regardless of the tax credits. I like what the company is trying to do philosophically, and if I understand the Harvester option correctly there isn't anything else on the market like it or even announced at this point.

doesn't matter. I wouldn't qualify anyway. Just build it, or better yet a 2 door!

Here here!

That being said, I will buy the Traveler w/o the tax credit if everything is on par with Scout Motors plan of record + expected inflation...

Will losing $7500 make you switch your purchase to an ICE vehicle?

I think it will be interesting to see if that happens with Elon as an advisor, cabinet or whatever he becomes. The $7,500 will benefit Tesla as well.

I am in for the Harvester so it makes no difference to me.

All that tax credit is, is a waste of the tax payer money. DOGE will most likely remove the Credit from the federal level and will make it become a State Governed Tax Credit.

I’m not here to argue. So don’t quote this/reply to this. Only react to it. If you have comments DM me.

The mods are doing a great job. I started a similar thread not knowing this one existed and they made sure there was only one thread with this topic.

Heres a bit more on this, everyone always jumps to its gonna hurt the EV market. No its gonna hurt the whole Auto industry. Because just think about how many more people saw it and said i’ve never owned a car but this will help me with getting one, even if they didn’t buy an EV it still probably got the sale since someone took the time to go out to a showroom floor. Thats why i think it will either stay at Federal level or it will become a State government level.

The answer to the question is yes.

I’m buying a Traveler because of it’s body on frame, solid rear axle, extra width compared to my Wrangler, and the Harvester option. A tax credit has nothing to do with it. I’d never buy one if it was only an EV.

The BEV SUV and pickup truck markets are getting more competitive. For me it will be a bang for buck decision but I will only consider a domestically built vehicle. That's my redline ...
