  • 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.

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

    Skoda (a part of VW) has some neat simple features that could be useful and incorporated into the Terra and Traveler. See the linked article. https://www.theautopian.com/skodas-come-with-a-useful-accessory-hidden-on-the-inside-of-the-fuel-door/

    Jamie@ScoutMotors, what is the lead time on shipping orders from Scout Supply? I placed an order on March 8th and haven’t heard any updates since the initial confirmation email. Does it really take 8-10 business days for processing and shipping purchased items? Thanks

    Ask Scott for a Stagecraft volume like they use on the Star Wars franchise 😉

    Does SM use On-set virtual production (OSVP) for rendering and background images?

    A properly equipped 1/2 ton diesel truck equipped with the towing package (additional cooling capacity, upgraded shocks, brakes and rear differential) will give you the capacity to tow up to 10,000lbs. Just be sure to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines. We tow a 16ft steel horse trailer...

    Will the upcoming colour choices be listed on the media tab so we can see what they are going to be ?

    Ah darn! I’d be intrigued to see a Terra test mule under a Crafter body.

    So is that a hint that test mules might be running around Europe disguised as VW Crafters or similar ? ( i.e., something the size of a Mercedes Sprinter or Ford Transit).

    Well yes. I work in quality so there are certain things that get flagged when it catches my attention and needs additional clarification.

    Agreed on item 2- If that’s accurate then I’ll have to stick with a brand that offers a diesel in a half ton truck to allow for acceptable towing capability.
