What will you typical cargo look like in your Scout?

  • From all of us at Scout Motors, welcome to the Scout Community! We created this community to provide Scout vehicle owners, enthusiasts, and curiosity seekers with a place to engage in discussion, suggestions, stories, and connections. Supportive communities are sometimes hard to find, but we're determined to turn this into one.

    Additionally, Scout Motors wants to hear your feedback and speak directly to the rabid community of owners as unique as America. We'll use the Scout Community to deliver news and information on events and launch updates directly to the group. Although the start of production is anticipated in 2026, many new developments and milestones will occur in the interim. We plan to share them with you on this site and look for your feedback and suggestions.

    How will the Scout Community be run? Think of it this way: this place is your favorite local hangout. We want you to enjoy the atmosphere, talk to people who share similar interests, request and receive advice, and generally have an enjoyable time. The Scout Community should be a highlight of your day. We want you to tell stories, share photos, spread your knowledge, and tell us how Scout can deliver great products and experiences. Along the way, Scout Motors will share our journey to production with you.

    Scout is all about respect. We respect our heritage. We respect the land and outdoors. We respect each other. Every person should feel safe, included, and welcomed in the Scout Community. Being kind and courteous to the other forum members is non-negotiable. Friendly debates are welcomed and often produce great outcomes, but we don't want things to get too rowdy. Please take a moment to consider what you post, especially if you think it may insult others. We'll do our best to encourage friendly discourse and to keep the discussions flowing.

    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.

Venice, Florida, is known as the "Shark Tooth Capital of the World," where visitors can find fossilized shark teeth along its beaches.
This is a typical collection after an hour at the beach. My wife sifts and I watch. Occasionally I have to go pick her up when a big wave knocks her over. Hard to find anything better than a day at the beach.

He’s not kidding and filters are just a mesh/screen -various types -think gold sleusing but different. Daughter spent a few hours there last summer and came home with nearly same amount and a few large teeth. Very cool

Bikes! Lots of bikes. I usually haul around 5 or 6 bikes over the tailgate of my F150. Tailgate pads are always a bit awkward as tailgates weren’t built to carry bikes; but it’s a great adaptation. Thinking through this capability on modern trucks and creating something purpose built would be excellent.

Sounds like something like this will work., and still have bed storage.
