Dropped in a reservations, we’ll see what comes of it. Would be great to replace the RAV4 with something with some off road chops and love the Range Extender option, best of both worlds. Curious how it’ll ride with that solid rear axle and BOF.

Those are…some dimensions though
YOOOOOO GR Corolla bro

The Traveler is a Land Rover knock off and the Terra is a Rivian knock off. No thanks...

It’s new and nice. Fine. I prefer bronco styling, but OMG a bench front seat?!? I freaking love that.
Yep I'm digging the front bench seat.

But reservations ... nooo! Will this be another one of those "reservation not a reservation" schemes?

Probably, but I threw down on a reservation anyway... It actually looks like it has potential with the range extending gasoline engine. As much as I might otherwise hate on it, this could be a decent vehicle (if they don't f' up the pricing and deliver something similar to the prototypes). I really don't believe that they will meet the price targets anymore than Tesla did with the Cybertruck.

I'm guessing the Scout will be decent, but once it gets over 5 years old or so, it will turn into your typical German car maintenance headache.
now now. 7 year old GTI here, 85K miles. It's been as reliable as any Corolla you've ever seen. They nailed the Mk7 platform. Plus, I don't mod it and I maintain it.

you really don't know how big corp works, do you.
For me, working over three decades in the aerospace industry, much of it in management, yes, I have a clue how big corps work.

It is Ford and the Ford apologists that really don't understand how to run a big corp, decade after decade, living up to the mantra, Fix Or Repair Daily. You really need to step away from the kool-aid and realize there are other brands worth considering, me, I've never bought the same brand car twice in a row, and every dealer takes care of me just fine, without a decades relationship, which really doesn't matter, since most service advisors only last a few years.

Some how, I feel it will be more reliable, check back in 3 years, meanwhile, loose the kool-aid.
VW has always been known for their super reliable electrical systems… Who wouldn’t want to buy a vehicle from them with even more electronics crammed into it?

Way too many haters in here. It's not a cool look, it's pathetic.

I think this looks great, but I doubt how many they will actually make under 60k, I'd guess none.

I heard price starts at 60k. I paid 42k for my bronco and I thought that was expensive. They do look nice but not even close to being sold on electric yet.
