How would you build your Scout?

[J Alynn]

Answered this awhile ago so trying to remember. Basically your build but with butter yellow and white roof 35’s and I think I’m gonna gamble the cabana roof. Otherwise identical. Second is same but a non metallic lagoon blue/green with white or gun metal gray roof. I absolutely love the Tahitian red but suspect everyone will be going that way. My first Scout was butter yellow tone so the nostalgia of it. I also think I’d like the tinted Ralleye strip but curious how it would look on butter yellow

This is a beautiful machine, I have not seen those graphics on any other scout. The scheme matches perfectfully.

And to my surprise, the gold/bronze looks really good together

I adore those graphics! I hope they have multiple styles of stripes because those are amazing - great colors too!

Okay now that I have seen them in person, I decided to revisit my thought experiment and see what’s changed.

Traveler for sure. I am not a truck person.

Yellow, but it has to be the right yellow. There were quite a few yellow vintage Scouts there that day and it’s amazing how different the color can be from yellow to yellow. No highlighter yellow, no orangey yellow.

I really like the charcoal grey roof that’s on the Traveler. Having seen the transition from body color to roof color with that dark windows and the black molding piece, at this point I prefer the dark charcoal.

I really like the wheels on the green concept that was posted a while ago. Of the three designs I have seen so far that one is my favorite.

I am not sure now if I want colored brake calipers. I’m hoping at some point they show some color options. I would like to see red, orange and blue brake calipers.

Same for the tow hooks. Would like to see different color options. Red, orange and blue tow hooks.

35s. I know, I know, range but I have always wanted them.

That tan/grey interior in the Traveler is beautiful. Just like that. It’s the prettiest tan I have ever seen in a car and I have had multiple vehicles with tan interior.

I really liked the doors in the traveler with that fabric. I don’t know how it will hold up versus the hemp but I preferred that over the hemp.

Dark flooring with rubber floor mats. SM please don’t make tan flooring. Had that in a few cars. Gets too dirty.

Glass roof for sure.

Rock sliders. Saw some vintage this weekend with a big step. No thanks. Not my cup of tea.

After seeing the bench seat and the regular bucket seats, I’m buckets all the way. Love that console in the middle. Definitely want that.

Loved the Rallye stripes. I’m 95% sure I want those.

After seeing the roof rack I’m sure I don’t want that. Don’t want to worry about height and I want the glass roof to be a completely unobstructed view of the sky.

I do like the brush guard on the bumper but I would need to see it in person. I don’t really need it and if it gets in the way of getting to the frunk then I would not get one.

Have to do my research on air suspension. Not sure on that yet.

And the big question still is to harvester or not to harvester. My husband is 100% harvester and all these articles lately about how EREVs are the new thing aren’t helping.

Okay this is where I am as of now. It will be interesting to see what we all change or stick with after we all get to see them in person.

Again, if they are anywhere even remotely close to you, go see them. You won’t regret it!!

Okay another decision made. No brush guard. I don’t off-road. I don’t need it. And I want to be able to get in the frunk easily.

As much as I like the burly attitude given by brush guards, I think it would spoil the beautiful mask Scout incorporated into the front of the vehicles. +1 for no offroading

YOU HAD ME AT BENCH SEATS

YOU HAD ME AT BENCH SEATS

I watched the reveal while sitting in an airport lounge and (with some difficulty, completely unrelated to the free booze) was frantically putting in my deposit as soon as I saw the bench seat option.

For me I was walking my dog watching on my phone and as soon as I saw the tire carrier I went immediately home and put in my reservation.

While I was blessed to be at the event I had literally pre-typed a text for my wife with my forum password and everything ready to send so the second I knew if I wanted one I could hit send. 2seconds after that door opened and they pulled out I hit send. Then typed a second text that said-make two reservations. My goal is still to convince my dad to buy one. He’ll be all but 86 when they hit the streets so I don’t know if it will happen but would be so cool.

Awh that would be awesome!

There are many threads about colors and features and interiors and exteriors. I thought it might be fun to have one place to talk about how we would build our Scouts. At some point Scout is going to send us an email that says the time has come. You can build and order your Scouts. We have no idea what they are going to offer but we can dream.

At the moment I have two ideas:

Traveler
Yellow
Dark grey roof
Bead lock wheels - dark grey
Colored brake calipers - blue
Tow hooks same blue color as the brake calipers
35 inch tires
Two tone dark grey/light grey vegan leather interior
Wood grain interior trim pieces in a grey/blue color
Dark carpet with Rubber floor mats
Glass roof
Rock slider/step

Or

Traveler
Yellow
Light roof
Light grey/chrome bead lock wheels
Colored brake calipers - red
Tow hooks the same red as the brake calipers
35 inch tires
Saddle leather interior - dark brown/lighter brown two tone
Hemp wood natural color trim
Dark carpet with rubber floor mats
Glass roof
Rock slider/step


The three features I am totally unsure of are the bench seat, Rallye stripes and to Harvester or not to Harvester that is the question.

I do not off road so I didn’t include things like air suspension and brush guards and winches or things required for towing. And I don’t want the roof rack with lights.

How would you build your Scouts??

I wouldn’t do headlocks unless you’re planning on airing tires down below 12 psi. They are a bear to balance and change tires with. If you just like the lock there are fake beadlocks.
