CYURE GOES TO CHICAGO 12/10/2025

If the carrier is easily removed, we would probably get the backpack and the carrier and only use it when we’re camping.

I have been lobbying for a removable carrier for some time. That would the best. The Traveler with the carrier is 28" longer than the vehicle it will replace and the access door in the garage to the house is directly in front of that space. It makes for a tight squeeze into the house.

I need to measure my Jeep. It has a steel bumper on the front that has these two little bump out on it and then my tire is a 33 so I think it’s longer than I think.

I’m all in on the tire carrier. I have a cabinet I can take down in the garage if need be. Her and her whole tire carrier fabulousness are going in the garage.

With the BEV the spare can be mounted under the floor where the harvester is going. I can always use more storage on long trips so having the option to place the spare tire under the vehicle and then attach an extra storage space to the rear tire holder is a win.

You know me and questions. Let’s say someone has a 35. There would be enough room under the floor of the Traveler for a 35” tire?

Good question... Hopefully we receive an answer to this in the new year. If it will come stock with 33s then I will take a gander that at least 33s will slide under the vehicle. I could be totally wrong though... I know on my current Ford, I can fit a 33 in the spare well but it's real tight, I would not be able to fit a 35 between the frame rails I believe.

When my husband sends me pictures sometimes I notice something I didn’t notice in the moment. The tire carrier has a pattern on it and they carried it through onto the backpack so it matches. I love the details like this.

That is a nice detail

Just can’t imagine that being an easy on/off feature and imagining first person not properly fastening and now the carrier is sliding down I-95

Under the traveler is questionable with traveler. Pretty’s sure they said 35’s would fit under Terra. But struggling to recall

I t was my understanding that the 33" will fit under the Traveler but 35" requires the spare rear tire carrier. I think this was all but confirmed in January of this year.

I really like the detail of the tow hooks and I would love them to be the Scout logo colors.

Even two tone. Blue on the outside and the orange on the inside. Something like that.

Welcome agree on a lot on our scouts but I like these as they designed. I could see Scout colored shackles or truck nutz but I like these as shown. But I still everyone gets what they want

Okay so here’s a picture of the A pillar handle on the passenger side. I know Jamie has said we are getting one on the drivers side too. Are we thinking A pillar there as well or on the ceiling.

I hope it is a pillar handle. The vehicle will be rather tall and a roof handle will not be reachable by a large group of owners.

Without a scale, those tow mounts look like they could be incompatible with a lot of my hardware.

The round hole on top appears too small for most of my >6000 pound shackle bolts.
The oddly-shaped hole behind would cause any reasonably-thick strap to bunch up and thus become weaker at that point.
The thickness of the material between the outside of the shackle and the weird-shaped hole appears thicker than most of my hardware would accommodate.
The thickness across the tow mount appears way too much to allow adjustment of the hardware as necessary, which could cause “hot spots” where the metal-on-metal wearing eventually causes weird weaknesses and failures.

But I can’t really tell from the photos.

I’d have to bring my recovery hardware to test.

I should also seriously consider upgrading from 1920s tech to today’s soft shackles so I have less concern with flying hardware when things inevitably break.

Maybe Scout will include recovery “hardware” in the form of a couple of soft shackles, a 20,000 pound flat strap, and maybe a couple of other pieces that are tested to work with the recovery points.

Prefer a handle on the A pillar and another grab location on the ceiling/roof as well. Something I can sort of loosely hold onto while driving… that is if my elbow sits comfortably on the window sill and I can still reach the ceiling/roof

Old habit's die hard. Some new hardware is probably a good idea.

I do the same thing. So two handles would be great.

A pillar would give shorter statured drivers better access in case of lifts, etc…

An overhead view of the console. I’m really hoping next time I see them I can get a picture in the phone charging slots. I’m curious how deep they are and if your phone will run into cups in the cup holders.
