I'm getting a Scout Traveler with 35" tires and winch (if available at launch) despite living in a city (admittedly, St. Paul's streets are sometimes worse than off-road trails). I'm clearly already overcompensating for something so I might as well go all in. Never do anything half way!Agreed!
As long as that is a configuration choice, and I can get a different noise...
The last thing I want is for my pure BEV Terra to sound like is an overcompensating gas-guzzzling V-8.
Booo! I had hopes for the horn.Don't throw stones, but I could do this in my 2022 Tesla Model 3. Well the lock sounds at least, the pedestrian speaker and horn are Gov locked I think.
Same for the most part, however, I'm counting on having the winch to inspire me to act even more like an hooligan offroad than I do now. Right now I see that mud hole and know it will sink my truck so I'll take the chicken route.

I don't call it overcompensating - I call it expressing my 70's Matchbox Scout inner-self!I'm getting a Scout Traveler with 35" tires and winch (if available at launch) despite living in a city (admittedly, St. Paul's streets are sometimes worse than off-road trails).

Had a realtor years ago I worked with and that was her mindset. I drive a big Mercedes so people see I’m successful and success means I sell houses and isn’t that why they are hiring me? Made sense even though it just made me realize how much they make for sometimes very little work-kinda like car dealers"You have to dress for the job you want, not the job you have, and you have to start doing the work you want to be doing." - Austin Kleon
I would say that quote applies to vehicles as much as clothes.![]()

I might give @Broverlander crap, but it's really realtors that belong deeper in Dante's circles, with few exceptions.Had a realtor years ago I worked with and that was her mindset.

Me while driving to work in the winter and seeing someone in the ditch: "I'm sure they've already called for help and would be embarrassed if I stopped. Also, it's dangerous for me to stop on the side of the highway. I'll leave it to the professionals."
Definitely needs more tire.Next tires. Way too small. Like I walked up to it thinking that’s it?
It’s a 265 on an 18” rim, so 31 or 32” tire? Also a brand I had never heard of.
I still really want to see a 33” on an 18” on the Traveler. I’m really curious how that looks.
I’m running 285s on my Wrangler and I think the Recon would look better on a bigger tire.

Sigh. Stop rubbing it in.When I got in the seat was all the way to the floor. They said they do that to make it easier to get into. It really wasn’t necessary. It was t that tall. It felt tight un the seat. I think it’s because the center console is so wide. I never felt that way sitting in the Traveler. I know it’s wider, but only 4 inches wider than the Recon.
It’s just bulky.

Definitely.Definitely needs more tire.
Sorry.Sigh. Stop rubbing it in.
Not all of us have been offered the opportunity to sit in the Traveler.![]()
You’re fine haha. My jealousy wrote that, don’t mind him.Sorry.![]()
I can’t wait till you all have the opportunity. I’m hoping next year more and lot of us are seeing them and sitting in them and it’s not such a rate occurrence.You’re fine haha. My jealousy wrote that, don’t mind him.
Bring on the jokes. Most of them a true anyway!I might give @Broverlander crap, but it's really realtors that belong deeper in Dante's circles, with few exceptions.![]()
And yet try to sell your home without one. They treat it like the plague and avoid it due to less commission.Bring on the jokes. Most of them a true anyway!
Realtors. Ninth circle of hell. With the advent of MLS and online listings, they do even less than they did for the share of the 6% commission the National Association of Realtors admitted was illegal yet still somehow charge.![]()
