  • 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.

    That angle makes the Trail Side look like it is popping it's hip to the left. That's a real model pose for you! 😁

    Add Nut Plates

    Wouldn't rivet nuts be a better solution? Using rivet nuts would allow you to put the holes exactly where you need them without requiring markings on the truck's body (to indicate where the nut plates are).

    I seem to remember they said an option for a lift and 35" tires would be available. So you will be able to get that height from the factory :cool: at a hopefully reasonable up-charge :(.

    Update?!?

    No updates in a year? Have you even looked at the OFFICIAL SCOUT NEWS AND UPDATES page (link)?

    The drive is 750 miles in a single day? You'll definitely want to stay away from the snack section of Buc-ee's then! 😄

    If you are going to stop at a Buc-ee's on the trip out you might want to skip packing snacks from home. Buc-ee's has a huge selection of road-trip worthy snacks, and you'll miss out on the experience if you already have snacks. But, if you skip the snacks in Buc-ees you'll likely save about 30...

    Scout's comin' to Cambridge...Wicked pissah!

    I am taking off on Friday so I can see the prototypes without fighting the weekend crowd. Now we just wait for the official announcement in the EVENTS AND APPEARANCES section so we can pile on! 😄

    Watermark Preference

    That's an excellent idea for tagging your photos that get scraped by robots and/or lazy internet trolls. I have voted. Hopefully the explicit text helps with the issue and doesn't just get cropped off. If you do see people cropping them and want to stop that, you'll have to start embedded...

    Traveler 240 outlet

    Would people be willing to accept an 30amp 240V outlet that required plugging into the charge port? Or does it have to be a separate outlet in the vehicle? For example, I have the OEM V2L adapter for my Ioniq 5, which gives me a 15amp 120V outlet via the adapter in the charging port. I am fine...

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

    I don't understand this statement. Why would you be limited to Level 1 charging from a solar system? If you are providing solar power to a house, wouldn't you need dual phase 240V for household use? You just need an inverter that can output dual phase 240V power, right?

    July 2026 Scout Motors Production Center Update

    Since Scout is starting from scratch, I doubt they will do any financing themselves. It will certainly be through another lender. If any of you that will be financing your Scout don't already have an account at a local credit union, I suggest you start looking for one soon. One advantage of the...

    CYURE GOES TO SC!! 8/22/2026

    Thanks for letting us know. I have made a reservation and requested time off from work Friday. I do not want to fight weekend crowds when it will be my first time seeing the Scouts in person.

    Yes, it is very wrong of you to deny anyone the right to get a Scout. It is especially rude to exclude someone just because the are a football fan!
