Delivery Options

[Blakelevy]

Does anyone know how we are going to get our new Scouts delivered? Will they be delivering directly to our homes? Would we have to pick up somewhere else regionally or would we have the option of picking up at the factory? I personally wouldn’t mind picking it up there, taking a tour of the factory, picking up some cool merch and driving home to Florida.

This is the information from Scout on State delivery. Factory delivery is also going to be offered.

Okay well now I have a question. If you buy it in another state do you pay your state taxes and fees in the purchase of your car or do you have to go to the DMV in your state and pay the taxes and register your car?

When purchasing out of state, you pay the taxes and registration for the state where the vehicle will reside. These costs are calculated during the purchasing process. All of this can be done electronically online now before actually stepping foot in a showroom. Picking up a Scout at the factory should be pretty simple as long as all the paperwork is completed ahead of time.

What Apex96 said. It’s very easy, I’ve done it and had no issues whatsoever

Welcome again if I haven’t already. There are numerous conversations here in the forum on various threads. If you use the search button and keyword delivery you’ll likely find hours worth of discussions. Check it out. The search is great for finding any topics you might have interest in. Odds are over past three years if it’s a legit Scout question, it’s been discussed. Now if your curious about one off things like how many rotisserie chickens will fit in the back of a traveler-then you’ll likely have to ask.

Can confirm. Thats how it worked when i bought my 76' Ford.

So the purchase would be completely done and when we pick up our Scouts it’s just fun, not dealing with anything financial? If that’s correct, YAY!

Since I have not seen anyone else mention it yet...

There have been several people in this forum that requested the ability to pick up their Scout at the factory in South Carolina. The official response from Scout has been "we are looking into it." So you are not alone in your desire to do a factory pick up, but there is no official word yet if that will be an option. I think the main issue is that South Carolina still has laws that prevent direct to consumer vehicle sales.

What made the BMW experience really cool-beyond the track stuff was the delivery center has a large entry and three individual glass bays and each person’s car was in a separate bay. I guess because mine was the “fancy one” mine was in the main entry so when we walked in as a group everyone went -Oooohhhh! And I had that 5 second moment of -yeah-that’s mine . But they went through the entire vehicle, front to back, top to bottom, set up my phone and made sure everything was perfect. Even called my wife from the car to test the phone. It was a very personal experience and considering it was 13 years ago I still remember it like yesterday so that’s how I know they did it right.

Okay now that sounds amazing. Ohhh what if our scouts were parked with a tire up on a rock or something like they do at the Jeep dealers.

I liked your original idea of parking them next to your lodging location on property. Realizing some covered shed corrals could be built for inclement weather I’d rather find mine and have the delivery experience be completely outdoors. And while wishing-maybe a nice size retention pond that is stocked with fish so the evening before when you arrive you could fish and enjoy the outdoors. Then wrap the night with s’mores and bourbon

Sounds great to me. As long as we get some nonalcoholic bourbon from NKD I’m down. I’ll even bring some of my homemade marshmallows for the s’mores.

If Scout allows for factory pickup and you complete the transaction online like Tesla and Rivian do currently, then yes.

Good point, Scout hasn't mentioned if factory pickup will be an option yet. Since the purchase will likely be done over the internet in the state in which you reside there should be no issue picking up the keys at the factory, if it's allowed. In this event the purchase is not being conducted at the factory. But I'll await more information from Scout on how payment and deliveries will happen.

I say we take delivery, throw some canoes on top of our Scouts and go for a real adventure in the wild.

Screw the stocked pond with hatchery fish.

Let's hit the river.

And J Allyn can do some archery
