Looking at the Scout vehicles... which, technically speaking, don't quite exist yet. :(

There are 2 prototypes, truck and SUV, but the factory to make more is still being built. Hope is 2027/2028?

With a gas powered generator, it will in theory have a 500 mile range.

Actually, Scout vehicles do exist. I have one. It was made in 1967.

Yeah, the OG Scouts, the new ones will be electric.

Yup, and wasn't the brand bought by VW? Mine was made by International Harvester. So not really that closely related, except maybe for body shape.

Yup, they bought IH and Scout came with it.
