  • 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.

    Cost and Ease to Repair/Maintain the Traveler and Terra

    Hopefully it’s basic mechanic/homeowner. Some manufacturers have gotten a little on the ridiculous side the last few years. With some vehicles requiring a scan tool or navigating through the dash through 5 levels of nonsense to put the brake calipers in service mode.

    I think we’ll see more brands start to go away as more people switch to ev’s it seems like most of the manufacturers are having a hard time they seem to be very hit and miss.

    Potential completion - Telo

    Someone else had link to this in another thread. While I can see the appeal of it the price seems high. I could see it being a good option if the price would fall around the starting price of a new maverick. But then again you never know they may sell millions of them.

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    I think they confirmed a fold down arm rest on the bench seat models

    Yeah I’ve always been partial to Chevys shifter. Some of the other brands I’ve seen feel like they’ll fall off if you’re not careful.

    I was talking more about the base model version not being a completely stripped down model. Like jeep and the bronco has been done

    Also I really hope that they will keep both models mostly like the concepts and don’t strip everything that makes the concepts so cool on the base model.

    Yeah I’m sure we barely know anything about what it’s taken to get this far.

    Hopefully scout can keep out of dealerships. I did see a interview where scott kind of broke down the relationship between scout and vwag. He basically said that when they started the company it was setup in a way that made it separate from vw but still under the group.

    Dealers are just mad that they won’t be able to jack the price up well over msrp and rip people off. I think most manufacturers are still mad over the prices during covid. It looks bad on the brand when your dealers are ripping people off.

    Speculation Alert - possible Harvester Engine Choices

    I knew they was planning an option for a spare in the bed. I didn’t know if it was required for the harvester though.

    Speculation Alert - possible Harvester Engine Choices

    I’m still trying to figure out where they will put the harvester on the terra. I don’t see a 33” spare and the generator fitting behind the axle.
