Agreed. The anti matter blue on the broncos was a little too dark so there is a fine line where the blue turns black-especially in low lightingThat might be nice to see a whole Terra or Traveler that blue.

so far, all solid-state batteries and claims are vaporware. What happened to the Donut Labs battery? Right now, they are doing independent lab testing which can be skewed. I won't believe the technology until an external test happens.Will someone that knows more about battery chemistry than me please tell me if this is vaporware.

So what you are saying is when I buy my next Scout in 2038 or 2040 it could have a solid state battery. And it feels so weird to type those years!This is real and on schedule.
Testing in vehicles will take a couple of years. Then it'll take a couple more years to get the production to an acceptable yield capacity.
Every realistic solid-state manufacturer has been saying early 2030s for availability in high volumes for about 5 years now. And they're moving along at that pace.
This doesn't mean every (or any) new EV in the US will have these batteries in 2030. We may not see them until 2035, at best.
About the time the new smaller, lifestyle Scout will be ready to debut to the U.S.So what you are saying is when I buy my next Scout in 2038 or 2040 it could have a solid state battery. And it feels so weird to type those years!
Exactly. See I’m thinking ahead!About the time the new smaller, lifestyle Scout will be ready to debut to the U.S.
I plan on getting my wife to love my Travler so when lifestyle comes out I can gift her mine and get the new one.Exactly. See I’m thinking ahead!
Good plan!I plan on getting my wife to love my Travler so when lifestyle comes out I can gift her mine and get the new one.
She’s the accountant/financial planner but I didn’t fall off the jelly bean truck yesterday.Good plan!
You have dreams about Scouts too! I’m not crazy.I consider this newsworthy: I had a dream that we were driving home and I took a wrong turn down a cobblestone road and ended up tucked away on the side of a mountain where there was a secret Scout Motors popup happening where they had a dozen different travelers and terras in different colors and configurations with some crazy accessories.
Sorry cyure I don't remember seeing PBY.
What “chemical” do you take before bed? I want some. What colors do you recall? And maybe you were brought there by aliens? Any signs of probing?I consider this newsworthy: I had a dream that we were driving home and I took a wrong turn down a cobblestone road and ended up tucked away on the side of a mountain where there was a secret Scout Motors popup happening where they had a dozen different travelers and terras in different colors and configurations with some crazy accessories.

Wow vivid dream!I take CBN every night!
I remember there was a really nice blue similar to the Rivian Blue, a seafoam green truck, and I guess what I'd call a "desert camo" traveler with a roof tent accessory and a bunch of other outdoor style accessories (a hammock swing, a grill that fit into the frunk, and some other stuff that I can't explain)
