Scout Color Poll #1

  • 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.

Unfortunately Jamie confirmed that those are just samples for training and not official colors for the Scouts. I love the blues that are up there though so I'm hoping there are some similar ones at least.
Unfortunate that the yellow is just for training, but aside from the yellow and the red/reddish copper colors, the colors don't really "pop". It's a dull palette. I want some bright blues, bright greens, bright reds, bright, bright all the colors! I'm not talking neon, but fully saturated colors, none of this dulled-by-adding-gray-to-the-color-to-pretend-its-not-gray shiz that's all over the place these days.

That reminds me of the time we stopped at Niagara Falls going to my brother's soccer tournament when we were kids. One of the boys on the team repeatedly yelled at the falls, "I want to see some color!" as we were waiting for time night show to begin with colored lights on the falls.

I want to see some color!

If the palette is half monochrome, there's a good chance I'll cancel my reservation. I'm so sick of boring, "playing it safe" colors.

I fully agree but sad truth is most buyers will choose neutrals. I’m good with toned down color because i still think it appeals to more buyers. Trends come and go and that includes cars so people tend to resort to safe colors. I get Jeep offers great colors on the wranglers but that is just one of their vehicles. Scout comes out of the gate with only two models so there has to be a safe middle ground. I’d prefer they stay on course then annually or so they introduce a new Bold color (for any trim level) and make those limited so they have a reason for non savvy shoppers to trade in every few years for the new trendy color. Having seen a few so far I think they are muted a bit but colors are unique and look very good so I personally think it’s a good move.

Those pink Wranglers sold out at our local dealership immediately.

Make those neutrals not all just have a grey undertone. Look at Silo. Gold flake. Mix it up with the flake or the undertones. I think a Cherry Cola black rather than just a plain old black would be amazing. There’s ways to do it so it’s not just the same white, black and grey like every other manufacturer does.

P.S. PBY!!

Agree 100% but I will say silo does have a drab gray touch to it and the pacific blue is neutralized as well in light but both are great colors-just a bit safe as these are family haulers not fun adventure vehicles in the wrangler/bronco sense of things but don’t get me wrong -I’d still like to see brighter colors

So you're saying that Scout shouldn't do a canary yellow and mute it down some, perhaps going with traditional Post-It note yellow, or some such shade? :ROFLMAO:

Some kind of a soft yellow would be great. If only there was a catchy name?
Jaundiced flesh? Don’t eat the snow? Zombie pus? If only ……
 
Couple of renders I did last fall in those similar shades
If Scout was planning on coming out with this type of removal top and roll bar setup they wouldn't be able to make them fast enough! :love:

Additionally I think one thing that the Scout community has made crystal clear is the request for more color choices. Surely we'll get a couple to choose from. 🤞
