Great design review. I think his analysis is spot on.

Most fun I've had listening to a professor, ever. I identified with how he praised the Scout designs as "mature" and contrasted it to all the overly aggressive & angry ("glowering") that other manufacturers are so hot on. That's a spot on analysis and why I find the Scouts so attractive.

This was what I needed to hear. I have a 2021 Bronco and I love its design and roots. The Scout is definitely in my opinion a cross between the Rivian and the Bronco … ( If Rivian and Bronco had a baby = Scout!)
But the Scout has more refinement in their whole approach that I’m looking for and is offering something the Bronco isn’t currently… (electric/hybrid power).
The Scout interior is beautiful. I hope this concept will be the reality.
Thanks for sharing this video. I’m definitely a fan.

"It doesn't look like it was designed with a ginsu knife."

"It looks really timeless...this is still going to look good 20, 30, 40 years from now."

He's pretty over the moon on the Scout suv and pickup design wow. As was Bembli.

Would like to hear Frank Stephenson's design review too. Especially cuz he's usually hard to impress.

Uhh, did people hear what he said? That he is close buddies from college with the Scout designer? This is the opposite of an objective review. Interesting to hear from him, but his bias is massive.
