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 think @SpaceEVDriver ’s math might hurt some feelings over there.

I reserved the Terra - Harvester in hopes that Scout will won't fail me in terms of limiting the tow capacity of 5,000 lbs (Rumored).
I'd pay more for a stronger battery with the harvester to prevent limiting the towing from 10,000 to 5,000 lbs.
I will probably cancel if the rumor is true.

Welcome to the community. You are correct this is just a rumor at this point. We just have to wait and see.
This is currently what we have as far as an official response to towing capacity concerns.
I love having backups. I love the harvester is a backup for when powers out or not accessible. We had a bomb cyclone in the NW last year and has power out for a week. Having a harvester in a vehicle I could back feed my home the whole time just by adding gas to the harvester most likely. All you need is a gas can in the back and you can go as far as you want into the country. Love th concept, scout is the first I think to do it right with battery vehicle with the gas back up support. Can’t wait and hope the option for harvester and lift doesn’t break the bank.
As a side note based on some long term BEV drivers, you could probably easily run your critical items from the pure BEV for a week or so as well. So both vehicles can be used as back ups.
I'm excited for the Terra Harvester! Scout is a cool brand, but it's not a nostalgia buy for me. Didn't grow up anywhere near the brand. My issue is I love the benefits of an ev platform (quiet, great torque through the entire power band, simple drivetrain with minimal error points, etc), but I have to drive 500 miles from the city up into the middle of nowhere pretty often, where the nearest supercharger is easily another 200 miles away. 10+ hour drives without that are just out of the question, and even with it are inconvenient at best.
This Harvester platform is what I've wanted to build for years, but someone (way better at it than myself) is finally doing it for a civilian pickup! If I am able to use the 150 mile electric range during the week around town, then rely on the harvester on weekends to recharge the battery back up and keep refilling along the way; this will be the perfect truck platform for my use and will likely get the attention of a lot of people in the midwest.
...plus it just looks freakin' gorgeous!!!

Welcome to the community! I’m so glad you found what you were looking for! There’s 2-1/2 years of info on here from other equally as excited people so have fun searching. A great follow is @Jamie@ScoutMotors he keeps us updated from the manufacturer side. Welcome again and have fun!
The Terra Harvester sounds like it will work out fine for you.
