So, welcome to the Scout Community! We encourage you to check back regularly as we plan to engage our members, share teasers, and participate in discussions. The world needs Scouts™. Let's get going.

Rear tire carrier looks awesome, but I image it will be a pain for daily use. Usually have a hitch mount bike rack on in the summers too. Also a little worried about garage fit with it. Currently my 2013 Pathfinder fits in the garage with the bike rack on (without bike loaded).
Makes me wonder if there could be a way to use the swing arm for things besides a spare, eg remove the spare carrier and attach a bike carrier. Maybe it would require some aftermarket modifications, but it’d be an interesting possibility.
Being a cyclist I think this is a great idea.
I wonder if the rear tire rack front cover that is over the wheel can be replaced with a bike rack.
Then it still folds out of the way when needed. Sounds like a good Idea to me.
I think. I’ll try to post. Ever since server swap it keeps saying my photos are all large so need to give it a try. If there’s a pic you know it worked, if not someone needs to teach me the easiest way to size down images on my iPhone
No go on pic but I have one. Try again in next few days when I’m back in the states
It seems to complain when I post screenshots in png format, some times they are large. I have been converting them to jpg format and reducing the size. This has been working for me and, the quality is still good. Maybe they have a new size limit.
I haven’t been able to upload pictures either. Im on iPhone, like when i posted the BMW superbrains and heart of joy. It said uploading, and it would never make it to done. It just stayed at 100
Glad it’s not just me. I remember last time they did big change on servers I had similar problem. Don’t know when or why it allowed that again-just sorta solved it itself
Tire carrier looks cool but hate that you have to swing it out of the way to open the rear hatch. I'm hoping that if ordered without the tire carrier, it will look more like the rear of the Terra with the cool lighting.
Hi Miranda77. There’s a thread all about the traveler without the tire carrier and various forum members have posted possible pictures. I don’t think there are any official pictures from Scout but if you search traveler without tire carrier a lot of posts come up. Again, welcome to the community.
Same here, I definitely only want the spare on while off roading, knowing me I would drop the garage door on it if it was on at home
The problem with removing the tire carrier is that there is no where else to carry a spare unless you put it on the roof rack, as the ICE is in the back. I still wonder how they will set up the ICE cooling.
I think they’ll use an ice maker that plugs in at the rear cargo and then just dispenses ice right onto the ICE
Ice, ice baby….

I’m still hoping for enough space inside to carry an internal spare, like the old Broncos but further back behind the second row.
