The Scout Times

  • 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.
Tennessee denies Scout Motors direct sales dealer license application
So will SM keep trying since this is a commission and not a court of law or is it essentially the same thing. What a bunch of BS

This is such garbage. Just utter garbage. "According to the [Tennessee Motor Vehicle] commission, multiple Volkswagen dealers in Tennessee oppose Scout selling its vehicles in the state because they contend Volkswagen owns the company, which already sells its vehicles there." So let me get this straight. OEM dealers are mad that they're going to have competition in their state. Their complaints based on unsupported conclusions. Yet you side with them? It's pretty obvious here who butters the commission's bread.

@Jamie@ScoutMotors I was interested in possibly working for Scout. I love my current job, and don't want to leave, but I believe in Scout so much it had a draw. Alas, I missed out on your legal hiring. I've been defending lawsuits for 22 years and also advising human resources. Prefer the HR work, but I like the fight of litigation. Currently in-house doing both. I'll be happy to come to work for Scout and crack some skulls! My family and I will happily move to Charlotte where the weather is much nicer in the winter!
I appreciate your legal analysis on the hub. Thank you.

I would say, keep your eyes on our hiring as we are still very much ramping up.
