True, but ..Check out "Flyng Wrenches" Youtube channel to see how often new Ford truck require cab removal to perform routine repairs.

Well, since Scout wants owners to be able to work on them let's hope they make access a bit easier.

Encouraging to see overt specs w/out spare tire carrier, but would also like to know alternatives to carry spare underneath and/or inside.

Also good to know I can avoid a few things I don't need/want -

• off-road suspension option
• able to specify 35-inch tires for maximum off-road capability
• off-road enhancements like sturdy recovery points, heavy-duty winches, and off-road bumpers

I suppose I might be a better fit for a Rivian but favor Scout for retro-modern design and physical switchgear. I adore my XC90 but have given up on Volvo.

Yes! This! Very happy to see that these are options, not standard.

the harvester location is both good and potentially bad news. Seems it may be hard to service if placed under the bed as shown. Wonder what access will be like.

If all I fails old school cut a hole in the bed and hinge it with a door which is what they should do from the factory hey just a country two cents

They could have a large shallow lockable storage compartment in the rear bed of the pure EV version; if the box is omitted from the Harvester EREV version, the lid could provide access to the genset.

One advantage of a body-on-frame pickup is, the bed is normally fairly easy to remove. Pickup trucks used for actual work often have aftermarket 'service beds' installed.
The Scout bed could be designed to make that very easy (e.g.: wiring harness with enough slack, or a conveniently located wiring connector at the front of the bed, etc.).
