  • 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?

    Great feedback, Ford just recently incorporated rear AC in the Bronco with customer demand. With the removable hardtop or softtop, they went with AC in the middle console.

    Back to Baja: The NORRA Mexican 1000 Live Update Log

    Incredible write-up by the SM team, a lot of rich History here in the 1000. The guys seem to be enjoying themselves, This race is a marathon; I've been catching bits and pieces of it throughout the weekend and love seeing the Classic/Legendary class. What a great experience for the 1976 Father...

    Scout Color Poll #1

    I don't hate it. It would separate itself from what's currently offered in the 4x4 space. I recall Ford offering something similar on the Probe and Ranger in the early to mid 90s.

    That's a great reference Adam. I currently own a 2017 Tacoma and feel the inside cabin feels compact and small. In high school a friend owned a C-10, similar to the graphic shown and the cabin felt spacious. Amazing how all the features and comforts in modern cars have decreased our interior cabs.

    Reminds me of seeing something similar to this and how trucks have evolved over the years. We have traded longer beds in exchange of larger cabs.

As you mentioned, Jeep does a great job capturing a blend of colors and they look fantastic, these are limited funs typically. Hoping SM will follow suite with some limited runs that will...

    What Song Will You Play First in Your New Scout?

    Falling off the rails here Timmy. I'm sure this was perplexing for bystanders.

    Future Model: Scout Sport- Smaller, and more efficient, but still capable.

    Perhaps it's the longer window travel? I could foresee a sliding window like the Scout II in this design. The door could go back slightly further. The rear slope needs to be more aggressive here.

    Future Model: Scout Sport- Smaller, and more efficient, but still capable.

    If SM opts to go with a future 2door model, I hope they incorporate that rear flick as they did in the Terra as a nod to the 80/800's. I gave this a shot, this looks like a blend of Scout-60 series LandCruiser

    Saw this article on motortrend- https://www.motortrend.com/features/no-more-federal-incentives-for-evs-issues-concerns/ Thought this graphic/image was cool of what a 2 door scout could look like (well maybe not this color scheme) here...

    Will follow. Great story Colton, also my son's name so I may be bias. There's something about a bond that is created between father and son when it comes to vehicles. These things are therapeutic. Great find on the Comanche Scout.
