CYURE GOES TO NC!! 9/26/26

[Jamie@ScoutMotors]

Hey @cyure, @J Alynn, and @jdm111er.28078! I understand you'll all be at the NC event. Can one of you do me a huge solid if possible at all? Can on one of you get the actual step-in height for the trail-ready traveler? From the ground to the top of the floorboards/carpet. I know cyrue got an estimate from her phone, but I want the actual measurement so I can compare it to my '23 Silverado ZR2 that I had previously. That thing was a beast to get in and out of and I know the step in height on that. Generally curious about how they compare. I bet they are close. The Travelers with 35's look huge. It's not vital if it's not possible.

One of the things I tell everyone about these concepts is that the ride height isn't necessarily indicative of the actual production vehicles - especially depending on what trim and options you apply to yours. Likewise with the seats in the concept. They are fixed in place and don't have anywhere near the adjustments that the production vehicle will have.

So measure away in a very broad sense. But the concepts sit higher and have big wheels and tires (similar to an offroad package) so they look good. The production version will most likely sit a bit closer to the ground (offroad packages may sit a little more simliar to the concepts).

@Jamie@ScoutMotors any other instructions for Saturday or are we to just show up with our email confirmations and smiles in our faces?

The questions I have are;

1. is this an all indoor or all outdoor or mix of both event?
2. Do we need a blanket or chairs like an outdoor music events?
3. I know it says “free”. Is everything free but Scout merch that’s for sale?
4. Any specific parking instructions? (I got my first parking ticket ever at the SC event. I don’t need to repeat that.)

Thanks and can’t wait!!

1. Indoor and outdoor.

2. Good question. Depends on how crowded it is, but can't hurt to bring them if you have the room.

3. Correct.

4. I will ask.

You rock!

Please don't cut the height down and turn it into just another EV. If I wanted a car, I would have already purchased one. Ford even cut the height of the Lightning. Which at least in Texas made most buyers just walk past it.

The height looks really good now. I don’t want a family vanish SUV.

I agree whole heartedly! When I asked the question about the Traveler's step in height, that's exactly what I had in mind. It wasn't because I wanted it lower. It's because I want it to look more rugged and off-road like, want to maintain that height, and my Silverado ZR2 had the right look (just not the gas mileage, if you know what I mean). If I didn't want to maintain that, I'd just get another Rivian! I like the niche Scout is carving out.

I seem to remember they said an option for a lift and 35" tires would be available. So you will be able to get that height from the factory cool at a hopefully reasonable up-charge ().
