  • 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.

    I started with a 326 2 barrel 2 speed and upgraded to a 389 3 x 2 barrel 4 speed…. Went from 12 mpg to about 8 mpg! No one accused me of being smart about it! But boy did I have fun on the streets and at Milan dragway

    Off-topic stuff…

    The first summer I had my license gas was.50 a gallon…. The next summer it was a dollar! Severely limited my cruising in a 66 Pontiac that got 8 or 9 miles to the gallon.

    July 2026 Scout Motors Production Center Update

    Well Mr. H, I know you’re still counting your winnings from the last guess/poll; but if you’re starting a new one for the first end-to-end build rolling out of the factory… My money is on March 2027

    Fun! Still a bit jealous, but my wife reminded me that the trip money would have come from the Scout account…

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

    Ok - once more I have to hope that my wife doesn’t read this… My truck was the first vehicle that had the birds eye view; she once asked me why the picture didn’t show the wood that we just bought in the bed! I successfully (albeit narrowly) held back the laugh…
