Scout confirms more models coming in future. What models would you want?

[Scout]

A Heritage/Retro model for certain!!! On both the outside and the inside. Of course, we want the roof and doors to be removable too. And the front windshield to fold down. Two door models look awesome on SUVs, but we need to have a four-door in our family. And of course, please retain all of the original Scouts off-roading capability. And any increase in battery storage is, of course, always a huge plus.

Mid-size pickup in the Ranger/Colorado/R1T class. I actually thought that was what the initial truck model was going to be and was surprised it's a light duty truck.

Other than the optional 3rd row seating - the specs of the Traveler is a lot closer to the specs of a 2025 Z71 Tahoe than a Bronco or Wrangler. Very similar length, wheelbase, width, and height. This is not surprising, Scout said the vehicle would be a full sized SUV. It appears to also be priced in the same range as the Tahoe.

We tend to want to think it is in the Jeep/Bronco range because that is what many of us wanted. If they do make a Wrangler/Bronco sized one, that would be interesting. Hard to say how much it they would eat each other's market share. Likewise, Not really sure why they built it the size of a Tahoe without offering an optional 3rd row - other than perhaps they looked at both sales and use, and found the 3rd row either not popular, or practically useless.

I have a 2022 Bronco. I was an early reservationist, so when I saw it for the first time at one of Ford's Bronco tours, I thought it was too big. When my Bronco finally was delivered and I first test drove it, I still thought it was too big. I was expecting a size of the 1st Gen Ford Ranger/Bronco II (I had an '87 Ranger STX), but it's such a unique vehicle I bought it despite its slightly over-sized stature.

The Scout Terra may be too big for my liking. Will have to see it in person to make a decision.

I would like to see a 8-9 passenger Travelall version to dominate the big boys from Suburban family to Grand Waggoneer

Same here.a Travel all rebirth would be cool

At the right price point they would wipe up!

This is perfect. Just as I'm taking delivery of my Traveler I'll have to put in a reservation for the new 2 door, removable top model. My wife did say to reserve both the Terra and the Traveler so this might just work out!

 

[Callsign_DISCO]

2 removable doors, 4 seats, removable top, Scout II sized at most - call it SSII

The Traveler is Tahoe sized. I might be more interested in a 4dr Wrangler/Bronco sized vehicle. That said, unless their factory is set up to easily transfer between models - having a midsized, small full sized, and full size (and maybe even a large full sized) will cause a lot of internal completion between models. It's one thing to have 2 models, 4 is a bit more iffy.

My wag would be a mid-sized. It opens up an almost completely different market. Sadly it is not a market I am interested in personally.

I know it probably wouldn't play in today's market, but a true station wagon would be wild -- the images when you Google the old Travelall are amazing. Kinda bummed I was born too late for the Age of Wagon.

If the Scout has a bench seat for the pickup, I may go that way.

otherwise it’s the Traveler for me.

Not sure about the size. Without the spare tire on the back, isn’t the Traveler about 20” shorter than a Tahoe. The Traveler will be considered a midsize SUV.

Well yeah, why wouldn’t they?
