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.
We are Scout Motors.
Have you noticed any charging stations going in at Walmart stores?
Excellent. There’s lots of info on here. The search function is very helpful. A good follow is @Jamie@ScoutMotors He keeps us up to date on updates from the manufacturer.
The concepts will be in Springfield, Ohio at IHS Nationals June 13th to the 15th.
Welcome aboard!
I know some one the ones have charging in the back of the parking lot. usually 2-4 spots from what I've seen.
Scout. “People. Connections. Community. Authenticity." Welcome to the Scout community. Enjoy the ride.
I'm a senior transportation planner and project manager for an engineering consulting firm. I'm currently managing the Dallas to Fort Worth segment of the proposed high-speed rail project in Texas, taking the project through the alternatives analysis, conceptual engineering, preliminary engineering and environmental analysis and documentation phases (NEPA).
Boy you sure have your work cut out for you. They have been trying to kill that thing for years.
Wishing you the best of luck from East Texas!
Wow, a lot of tenured professionals here on the forum!
I'm in retail management in SoCal, but I dabble in programming special effects for haunted attractions for fun.

Ive worn a few hats in my time but the current career keeping me afloat is driving a truck. been doing that a few months short of a decade now. in the next year or two im going to be transitioning to working more on the farm we bought last year, and i hope to transfer to that completely within 5. Time will tell
Yep! Know all about that. It's kind of a running joke at the museum....
I guess I hadn't seen this thread...
I'm a retired software engineer. I wrote code for machine controls (for CGI/Marposs), telephony/data (for Symplex Communications), and finally video encoding/transcodiing/decoding (for Motorola, 3Com, Pace, Time Warner, and Comcast). Oh, and a 2 yr. side project writing the code for the LP3000 lighting console

Mechanical Engineer, lead designer for our drilling division (oil & gas). Early 40’s very far from retirement lol
I'm a hockey dad, firefighter/EMS Coordinator, retired Army medic/flight medic, a former VSO.
My job is nebulous, but if I were to distill it down I design and install the computer infrastructure that runs industrial facilities.
Cool - a fellow Industry 4.0 / IIoT guy?
I worked on ModBus, XMPP, and MQTT in the 80's and 90's
In fact I worked in a GM site on the first modbus gage to machine control (I was told) from a Modicon PLC to Cincinnati Milacron grinder to control workpiece size...
(of course it was RS-485 in those days)
Lots of ModbusTCP and SCADA integration. I'm a little younger by the sounds of it, so I did a lot with Telemechanique and Schneider. I'm now with a major DCS vendor.
