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.

Age is just a number. When we first moved into our new home and needed/wanted some electrical work, we got several glowing recommendations for a local family-owned electrical company. When we hired them a young man about the same age as the one in the video came, and man he knew his stuff. Recently his father retired and now he own's and operates the family business. I recently saw one of their trucks at a neighbor’s home and went over and asked if when he was done, he could stop by for a discussion about a EVSE install in our home. He stopped by and I explained my intention, he said they have been doing a lot of these installs. We talked for 20 minutes on breaker & wire size, amperage and location as he spouted code, much like the electrician in the video. I then told him I wouldn’t need the work done for about a year. He said no problem, just give me a call when you’re ready. I tried to pay him for his consultation, he said no; you know you’re on the friends and family discount plan. Sorry for the long winded post. Bottom line. When you find a good electrician hang on to them.
Agree. Have an archery parent that has his own. He doesn’t run when I call but he schedules me in when he’s closer by to keep my costs down and he always takes care of us when we need something. He will be my call when the time comes for the chargerAge is just a number.

I reserved the Terra on Monday and opted for the all electric model.
I don't drive very far daily, and don't need more than 350 miles for range. Part of the appeal for an electric vehicle is the reduced maintenance, I don't want to have the worry about about oil changes etc. for my electric vehicle.
For the record, I think having the range extender is a great option over a traditional hybrid vehicle.

Congratulations on your BEV Terra reservation.
Welcome to the most exclusive club on this whole forum! BEV Terra reservation holders, otherwise known (by me) as The Cool Kids.
You bumped us up to 8.7%. We're moving up in the world. At some point everyone else will realize how cool we are and they'll all log in and switch their reservations too.
Thank you for the warm welcome Wilson! I was surprised when I saw the breakdown that the BEV Terra had such a low percentage. Thanks for the reassurance that I made the correct decision!
Current Bronco owner here. Just reserved a Traveler Harvester. Love the thoughtfulness and throwback styling. Very exciting to see where pricing will fall.
Congratulation on your Traveler Harvester reservation. It is very popular.

Remember the built in search on the forums is a great place to start getting answers to your many questions.
Welcome to the community. Former Bronco owner. May I ask why you are going Scout? Is it to replace the Bronco? I had issue after issue with our Bronco so just curious what your thinking is
I've had my Bronco (Outer Banks Sasquatch) for two years. She's mostly a grocery getter and garage queen. I have taken it off road--a couple of great trips to Moab, and some intermediate level trails here in AZ. I have not had any mechanical issues, but have had issues with the hard plastic molded-in-color (MIC) top cracking. It's a thing (https://fixourbroncotops.com/). The Scout will replace the Bronco for couple of reasons:
1. The Harvester option. We do long road trips, and to have a gas generator is key for me. If the Scout gets 500 miles of range as advertised, just wow. And all battery on short trips--a perfect balance for our needs and lifestyle.
2. The Scout looks like it will be more refined than the Bronco. On the Bronco, cheap plastic is everywhere (both inside and out) with very little insulation. Tons of road noise on the highway. I "get" that this is an off road vehicle, but for $67K (sticker, not what I paid), The cheap plastic, lack of insulation, and crummy plastic MIC top are a miss from Ford. I think the Scout will be a more comfortable daily driver, which is where I spend 98% of my time.
3. The Scout design. Great job from Scout designers pulling old school cues into the new school design. I love how this thing looks, and all of the thoughtful options that the Scout team keeps incorporating into the mules. However, I do love how the Bronco looks as well...Ford did a great job on the design.
We had the soft top and bad hinge joints were actually cutting through the canvas top. Had to dump it. Having seen the traveler twice in person I can say it is leaps and bounds better in finish. And having had a scout as first driver at 16 the new is the perfect evolution of the old Scout II’s. Glad you’ve at least put the Bronco through a few paces
