Removable/replaceable recovery points. It would be nice to swap out for other gear, and could be a mounting point for an aftermarket bumper that just covers the current bumper and leaves holes for sonar/radar/camera points. Or just make all the electronics modular and have it pop out of the current bumper and snap into a new one.

This would be genius. Why has no other manufacturer done this already? Is there possibly crash test / safety rating issues going with this type of construction?

I would think that it would avoid all of that by not changing the original bumper. But it’s likely more complex that I know.

Please make the Scout Traveler Flat tow-able.

Vanderhall Brawley will be flat tow-able and even charge while being towed. Please make this happen.

I will be selling my Class A in the spring of 2027 (to large for what we now do) and getting a smaller TT, which will be towed by the Traveler. The new ultra light modern TT's are really nice, and we no longer take 6 week cross country trips, stay in the Western states on 4-7 day trips. With a 7K lb towing capacity it's not an issue.
