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.
Always nice to take a break and post something here.
Looks like this design mockup got a black roof instead of the concept version getting a dark silver color.

Didn’t pick up on that. Good eyes. You probably know every inch of those two designs. BTW-which one are you getting?
In the Scout buck pic there is an orange Scout logo on what appears to be a book. Is that a book? Or is it just a ad piece mounted on a thick backer? Hmmmm?
May be a pile of ad pieces or brochures for handing out, note the QR code
Good point. I was just hoping there was already a booklet of sorts but I think you are correct.
I wish they would do an old fashioned brochure. No one does those anymore and I like having them for the cars I buy. Our Supra I even had the window sticker framed with pictures of the car for my husband for his office.
Was thinking. During your online build, would you select a $100 option to have a 20 page booklet that is images of your personal vehicle being built. Maybe an intro page with some renders like Jamie shared the other day then 8-10 pages of progress shots then maybe a shot in front of the factory and maybe one in front of the visitors center or something like that. Then have dates and times of each photo on the pages. That would be a pretty cool keepsake and I think I’d actually buy that. Like having a child-it would be a “birth certificate “ for your Scout. Should you sell it the adopting family would take it with them. Certainly not the Scout Encyclopedia but definitely a unique item to have
Oh I absolutely would. Like you used to get with Cabbage Patch Dolls.
They could also have a page with your original reservation and then when you place your order. And the picture of what it shows you when you make all your selections.
Gene Reginald-still remember that name on the CP certificate. Had a bald one
. Was thinking a lot of the production photos could theoretically be stock but just date and time added on the page. Then the only couple fresh pages they would need would be post paint pics (again-probably could be stock) so just the final assembly pic and the outdoor pic and in time-those could be stock as well but I think it would be a cool coffee table book “let”
I keep thinking of amusement parks. Where they take your picture in the middle of the ride and you get the picture at the end. They just need something like that.Gene Reginald-still remember that name on the CP certificate. Had a bald one
And then I’m hoping they do something like what BMW does. If you order a car from them you can track the progress. It’s in the paint dept, etc, etc.
I didn't realize BMW did the entire build process notifications. That would be very cool.
Our Ford & Lincoln vehicle only gave simple notification for order placed, build date, build complete & vehicle shipped.
My best friend ordered her X5. She was telling me where it was. It seemed to be more than just order placed etc. she was able to go in her BMW app and track her car. So it would be nice to have access to the Scout app after we place our order to follow our Scout and also get access to the owners manual.
Now I’m getting an image of us driving our Scouts on the test trail and getting a picture of us driving over the top of a humongous hill
Ohhh. Okay Jamie we need that! Like the cameras in Space Mountain at Disneyland!! And when you get to the end there’s a wall of screens and you can see everyone’s pictures.
Couldn’t work out the schedule to be there on a Friday or Saturday ball game, but we stopped by on our way home from my son’s visit to the Naval Academy. Was able to see the Baja truck through the glass doors.
We will definitely come back up from Atlanta. However, I have to say — the female at the security desk in the lobby was both rude and misinformed. She said the Connection Center had been closed two years ago and pretty much take a look in the window and get out.
Sorry, building security wasn't very pleasant. They don't work directly for us. Hopefully you can make it back during a game in the future. Eventually we will have multiple ways to see the vehicles, but this early on it is still tough.
