  • 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.

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    I’m suffering bond villain fatigue. Does every product launch require a Steve Jobs copycat clutching an imaginary beach ball and pics of how you burned your first two rounds of vc? /end of rant …Scout, please find an on brand, relevant way to launch, would you?

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    …yes, WWI saw pocket watches being fit to straps what begat the popularity of the wrist watch. those canted at an angle are sometimes called a driving watch as the automobile was becoming a thing. the angle supposedly made it easier to read while hanging on to the steering wheel… …a Scout watch...

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    …it’s a Seiko Lord Matic- you can see the black ‘LM’ above ‘special’ on the dial, from the 1970s probably before 1975z. The 5216 on the back of the case is the model of the movement, or calibre. Seiko does many things differently, plastic parts being one of them. I’ve worked on a few Seiko...

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    …a Breitling branded Venus 178, all cleaned and reassembled. I have to wait for a tiny pusher spring to arrive but once that shows the movement headed back into the vintage Navitimer from whence it came…

    We have the Stripes, Decals and Emblems! How many of us relate to heritage Scout with all the stickies and how many of remember them without? I don't think anyone with a Scout in my orbit BITD could afford decals :ROFLMAO:...

    Do You Want Your Scout To Have A Hands-Free Driving System?

    The inevitability of full autonomy certain high profile people push is goofy. Even if the engineers were to ever figure it out Peltzman Effect and the lawyers will kill it quick. A little hands free in rural low traffic areas will suffice…
