Extra, Extra....Read All About It!

I just saw this article asking if people are going to wait till Lidar is on the R2 to purchase.

It made wonder, what kind of things might be available on later model Scouts that the first ones won’t have.

Not being mean, but thats the lamest supra ever. Wheres the liberty walk widebody? Titanium Exhaust? HRE rims? Window Tint? Wrap? Seems the jeep gets more love. SAD.

She absolutely has window tint. She also has a 10 year new car warranty that was way less expensive since she’s a “Toyota”. We aren’t doing anything that could void that warranty. Toyota can fix her for the $100 deductible for 10 years if anything goes wrong. Also she’s only 1 of 4952 that year. In 25 years she will be stock. You know how hard it is to find a stock vintage Supra. And that will be even harder for the Mark V when there’s less than 5,000 for that year and they only made about 25,000 of the Mark V total. She’s gorgeous to us!

A 3-car garage would be nice. Presently I have all my ‘man’ tools in the 2nd bay.

Boys and their toys and tools and kids bikes and kids junk and donation boxes and a lawn mower and a work bench. Where’s a person supposed to park their dream Scout

Vehicles 80" and more in width are required to have additional lighting (3 amber lights in the front, three red lights in the back). Most manufacturers try and stay under that number, which is probably why Scouts will be 79.9 inches.

Seems to be the logical reason. And an extra inch doesn’t add value just more lights to replace

That’s pretty huge news

How’s your stock looking? Is it ticking up?

Whatever they are they will be more costly. That is for sure

Actually I wish I could park where the Supra is. I could move those trash cans and have about 3 more feet because that part of the garage bumps out.

The only issue is that door is 93 inches wide and I mean I would have to be straight on. Now I did used to park the Jeep there but the mirrors on the jeep only stick out as far as the tires on the Jeep do.

I always tell everyone. The mirrors on the Jeep are like whiskers on a cat. If they fit the Jeep fits.

On the Lightning, I can close the mirrors while driving. So if I needed to, I could squeeze in where the mirrors don’t fit. Hopefully the Traveler will have that option too.

That’s what I’m hoping. Then I would have plenty of room on the drivers side and when taking passengers I just back out.

SM - we need those mirrors to be able to fold while driving to get into tight spaces. Please and thank you.

I wouldn't have guessed a 392 in the Willy's edition-Price point should be interesting to see.

I was at the dealership getting the tail light fixed. Ended up just being a bulb. Easy peasy.

Anyway, there was a 392 MOAB in the showroom. $83,000. They must have lowered the price. I thought those used to be right around $100,000.

If Jeep made a BEV Wrangler with ~300 miles range, I don’t think I could stop my partner from buying one. Despite my distrust of Stellantis.

I know I’m really lucky. I just went and measured and I have about 6 feet on the passenger side.

Im golden on that side, see.

You've got space for days!.

I believe I have the smallest 3 car garage in existence.

I've got about 8inches from the edge of the garage door, to the drywall in the garage, on each side, and like barely 10ft ceilings. Still better than a small 2 car, but a 2 car garage with 2-4ft on the sides, and taller ceilings/more depth would potentially be more useable.

My jeep is currently in the garage, but I really need to sell it, to get the TUcson back inside the garage. The riding lawnmower (zero turn, I've got 1 acre of land with ~3/4acre of grass) and all the bikes/stuff is the hard part. So it does feel a bit like the "number of vehicles you can fit in your garage easily, is the number of garage bays - 1".
