CYURE GOES TO NC!! 9/26/26

  • 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.
Now a couple from the Trail- Ready Traveler. The bench seat has made an appearance in the Traveler for the first time at this event!

That brick floor in the empty space beyond sure looks stunning!
In your last picture of the Mountainside, the wood grain looks like Realtree camo from this distance. Better than the OSB look I guess.
At one point I looked over to the empty area and a little girl in a pink dress was just sitting there looking away and I still think it would have been an award winning photo-was such a surreal image to see. Especially with the giant warehouse windows beyond. That said it did make it tough for camera lighting
 
8-900!? Wow. I go to Charleston for 4 days and I think I took 1 (and that was a quick texting pic.) Then again, they know me and my "abilities." My best friend wanted pictures of his event but gave his camera to my wife. He knows...
Yeah-I’m guessing I took maybe 150-160 total but tried to just cover things I wanted to share.
 
I wonder if the wood was better for the Ford employees feet when it was previously open for production lines.
It was originally done so if things damaged the floor in a given area they could simply pull the blocks and replace them. Unique space. The aerial shots I got inside were outside of second floor bathrooms which were just raised, modified shipping containers. Was cool!
 
Apparently, end grain flooring was popular in old industrial buildings where they could be very thick (a few inches). From Reddit, it seems like the advantages were they could handle extremely heavy loads, they would soak up oil and not be slippery, they were more forgiving to falling objects, and individual pieces are easy to replace,
Answered before I saw your post. And your statement is exactly what I was told in the facility
 
Seems like 35s on R22 wheels is a lot of tire for the less aggressive Mountainside version. I'm still wondering what it would look like with 33"s. My officemate just got her R2 with 32"s on R21 wheels. The Scout is more like the R1S (size-wise) so maybe the 33"s would just look too small. I wonder what wheels/tires the SM mileage predictions we currently have take into account.

Also wondering if the factory tires will be foamed or not. I know Tesla does that and adds quite a bit of cost so should be interesting. Fortunately our RZ just has regular

You identified my concerns with the 33s exactly! Will they look too small? My tires on my Silverado Trail Boss looked ridiculous. Personally, I love the 35" and 22" rim. I have a 22" rim on my Rivian and like the look, but there's a little too little sidewall for the curb checks, if you know what I mean. Not that I ever hit the curb. I'm just talking hypothetically, you know? 🫢

This has been my favorite interior so far. I love the two tone interior look, not necessarily these colors but a two tone interior is it for me. I also like the fabric on the doors and dash instead of the wood. I think the wood choices have been too busy for my liking and I currently have the dark wood in my Rivian so a texture change will be a nice change.

To date, the fabric panels appeal the most to me. Sure hope launch has a wood or fabric combination I LOVE, otherwise it could be my one compromise

We still have a wooden street in Cleveland! Much quieter when horses were the mode of transportation. 19,000 blocks and originally treated with creosote.

Gotta love creosote. Always wonder what seeps I. The ground from that stuff. Works great but imagine the environment pays a price
