Favorite road tripping snack

  • 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 Scoutsā„¢. Let's get going.


    We are Scout Motors.
I have never been to one. I need to go.
One of my friends parents traveled 9 hours just to go one, then complain it was too crowded. The one they went to was 2 hours from here, and when I go visit family It’s my preferred charging station, they have the nice Mercedes Chage point DCFCs and they’re usually a little cheaper than the EA at Walmart. I will say as a gas station/store I find them overrated and very crowded, but being able to get hot food while charging is nice

There are always a few on our way to anywhere in Texas.

May sound weird but I stop for the bathrooms. They are always clean and there are close to 50 stalls so you never wait long, if at all.

When you have a family of 6 this can be the difference between a 10 minute stop and a 45 minute stop.

Would love it if they offered showers at all of their locations like the Truck Stops.
 
They’re opening one in our town sometime soon. I’ve already decided I’m not driving that direction on the highway for a few months after it opens. They’re predicting backups down the ramp onto the highway so I’ll take the backroads if I have to go west

Oh for goodness sake. It’s like when an In and Out opens in town.
 
We still haven’t been able to go, they’re overcrowded, and still have traffic guides by the road, who for some reason tried to direct me in as if the building owned the left lane of the road
Okay when you do go they have a ā€œsecret menuā€.

Neapolitan shake - all three flavors mixed together.

Protein style - no bun

Animal style burger - grilled onions and patty cooked in mustard.

Animal style fries - onions and sauce on the fries.

You can get bigger burgers. 3x3 or 4x4. So extra meat and cheese. That would be a lot.

Oh and I always ask to get the fries well done. They are too soggy if you don’t.

Oh I just found out today there’s something called a Flying Dutchman. I have no idea what the is.

I’ll keep that in mind once we’re able to get in. Thank you!

"The Flying Dutchman represents one of In-N-Out Burger’s most intriguing secret menu offerings. Unlike standard menu items, this protein-focused option embodies the chain’s commitment to customization and customer satisfaction. At its core, the Flying Dutchman consists of two slices of cheese melted between two beef patties—no bun, no vegetables, no spread. This simple yet satisfying combination has developed a dedicated following among low-carb enthusiasts, protein lovers, and In-N-Out aficionados seeking something beyond the standard burger experience."

No sauce. No thanks!

Now that we've entered the unhealthy snack/food portion, I'll chime in. I love Munchkins on road trips. Conveniently in a 50-count box, and with a mix of blueberry and chocolate, you never know what you'll grab.
