Article: Why More People Are Ordering The Hybrid Scout Harvester (EREV) Than The Electric One

Getting off the point. Utility scale battery storage is growing exponentially and its adoption curve is happening even faster than solar did. I generate 120% of my need. Yes, there are sectors where fossil fuels will be necessary for a long, long time. My household is not one of them. Enjoy your day.

I agree and you enjoy your day as well

Have solar as well and I know that Fossil fuel is not going anywhere anytime soon. There is far too much reliance on it and It fills a critical energy & manufacturing need. Unless you have solar for over 100% of your needs w/storage & you can ensure the sun regularly shines, you will need fossil fuels.

That’s exactly what we have. Large solar array and storage for backup. Net zero on an annual basis including EV’s with credits from the grid. Local grid in Vermont is almost 100% renewables, so we’re almost 100% fossil fuel free as far as utilities and transportation goes. It can be done. Helps to live in a state that has invested in renewables.

I need the range extender to tow my 7,000 lb boat to remote lakes and make it back home. I would love to stay all electric but I honestly wouldn’t consider a lake remote enough if it had a charger available. I live in Maine. It’s very rural. I like it that way. I love my wife’s model y. I look forward to trading in my F 150. Hopefully the scout is up to the task.

Must be nice, here I’m only allowed to generate at most 80% and I still have to pay the utility company at least $30/month even if I send them more electricity than I use

First post on the forum after putting my deposit down earlier.

I reserved my spot in line for the Traveler Harvester. Why? Because I plan to tow my Wrangler to the trails I frequent and they are between 250 and 400 miles away from my house. My hope is that the Harvester can tow 200 miles. If it can, this is my next vehicle. If it can't, I'm not positive I won't be canceling. At 200 miles, I would be stopping to fill my Wrangler up if I were driving so it would not change the routine too much.

The rest of the time, 150 miles EV would equal once a week charging. This vehicle hits all my bullet points. As long as the range is as advertised.

Interesting how many people think those of that want a harvester don’t really need one. One actually said we are being dishonest with ourselves…lol. I have EV today and any trip over 150 miles one way sucks to the point that I take one of my other vehicles. Harvester will be a game changer whether the Full BEV folks like it or not.

The harvester is the reason I went ahead and reserved one, and it will be my 1st EV because of that. If the range extender doesn’t pan out I won’t be getting one it’s replacing this
