  • 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.

    Is the EREV going to be a flop?

    Do you know if this Bruder adjustable tongue weight hitch acts like a wdh? Therefore a 10,000 ( 900+ tongue weight capacity) Terra BEV could legally pull it? If not then how could the Terra Harvester ever pull it. The Kingdom Camping Karavan XL and Pause 22 4 are both just shy of 10k gwr.

    Is the EREV going to be a flop?

    This all sounds expensive. I have heard others project the Harvester models should not cost anymore then bev models. Does not seem possible to do all of these upgrades and not be more expensive. Again this 10,000 pound towing number that everyone mentions is for highway towing with a WDH. This...

    Is the EREV going to be a flop?

    Its kind of hard for them to defy physics. Keep in mind towing a trailer to places that Scout intends for thier rigs to go requires an articulating traier hitch. This means no wdh. That means like all 1/2 ton trucks (ev or ice) Scout will likely only have have a 500- 600 lb tongue weight...

    Is the EREV going to be a flop?

    No I am sticking with Eco warrior. We have already lost anyone that would be off put by this when Scout didn't offer a diesel or V8 model.

    I hope that the case. What happens if there are tons of issues or the Harvester do not perform as asspected?

    Actual delay official and order of deliveries confirmed?

    I am with you. Fond memories of driving my grandfather's Terra into the irrigation canal when I was 10 years old. Don't think it had power steering. If all this Harvester sillyness could have been put into the BEV line SM could have for sure offered a max pack version of the Terra that would...

    But won't your car and trailer be over 500 pound tongue weight?
  12. BartMan Terra Total EV

    Actual delay official and order of deliveries confirmed?

    All the power to you. My issue is not with folks like you. Its just short sighted to launch a rebranded off road vehicle as an electric vehicle with Off-Road prowess that in some ways is more capable then a Riv. Then just because the current administration broke up with Elon and took away the...

    Holy sheet awesome post. Makes me wish I hadn't have dropped out of college. Was a fellow free healer starting in 1978 at Alta Utah. Hate to admit this but gear was to heavy for backcountry skiing and I got old so i shaved 8 pounds and went AT. You know decents while backcountry skiing is were...
