Amortized out over the first 50k vehicles produced, paying an employee $50k over the next year to post these details would definitely be worth the extra dollar I'd have to pay for my Scout...
What do we think is going to happen on the 24th of October?

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 volunteer. How do I get that job? I would love it!!
Some more ideas:
How many colors will be available at launch?
How many colors beyond white, black and grey?
How many wheels?
How many tires?

It’s a fair point. I politely disagree but I traveled to see them and seeing them has continued to show change and info that lets me know things are happening. It’s a tough point in the journey to provide info when everything is being finalized and market shifts are likely driving their procurement division nuts. If they are still locking down things they can’t talk about them. But there is regular news-just not on the daily
Love to hear an announcement of how they are quietly working on battery technology for the BEV Terra. This way they can compete with Rivian, Tesla Cybertrucks, Chevy EV and any other EV truck. Then when the tides change in the next few years Scout Terra BEV will bust out and lead the pack.
I like pop quizzes!
I’m going with:
Q1: 8
Q2: 5
Now the tricky ones
Q3 and Q4 are 4 unless you ordered the full size spare, then 5
(Sorry - couldn’t resist)
Well it’s now 10/24/26 and nothing has happened! What the hell
DUH!!! Everyone knows that the 2026–27 FIS Alpine Ski World Cup season officially opens on The Rettenbach Glacier in Sölden, Austria today.
Should park a scout on the downhill ski jump ramp -covered in snow and drive it to the top
Happy 2 year Launch-aversary!!
I’ve been thinking about this a lot the last few days. Where this all started for me. My first introduction to the Scout was when I Googled “vehicles that look like a Wrangler” and this came up…I still have it saved in my pictures on my phone.
I know there’s lots of gnashing of teeth about how they are taking too long to come to market, etc, but for me I’m secretly glad they didn't release them right after launch.
I think about all the experiences I have had on this journey to owning my Traveler. All the events and road trips. I met Scott and have been on a podcast. I got to post the Friday wallpaper picture of the new build for goodness sake!
The best part, I have made friends along the way. Actual friends that I call on the phone and care about.
So yes it’s been a wait, but this journey has been so much fun.
Thanks @Jamie@ScoutMotors for keeping us all in line. Thanks @CP1@scoutmotors for always being so giving of your time and taking such great care of the concepts. Thanks Chris@ScoutMotors for all your great work and my husband has so enjoyed talking to you about Red cameras. Thank you Mr. Benjamin and @aileen.barraza and the entire CMF team for your beautiful designs. Thank you to every one of you at SM who are making our Scouts a reality.
A final thank you to @Scott@ScoutMotors. The culture at a corporation starts at the top and works its way down. What you have built and are building will be spoken about when the topic of “how to successfully bring a legacy brand back to market” comes up. SM didn’t have to create this community, but you did and I’m very grateful. It was wonderful meeting you at the Harvester Festival.
I can’t wait to see what you all have in store for us in the years ahead!

Happy anniversary. Next years will hopefully be very exciting. Hoping that they will open up reservations to orders..., well next year.
Happy Anniversary Scout Team and Thank you so much for all of your hard work! Congrats on reaching another milestone. We are all looking forward to getting our Scouts!
Some news about Scout expansion broke earlier, but it's behind a paywall. I suppose if we wait a couple of days the news will trickle to all of the usual outlets

I got a little bit more. He is speaking in Georgia tonight so I bet it gets announced at the rally. (I never talk politics on here. This is just what’s happening today at a rally).
Happy 2 year anniversary to all of the Scout Community
I wonder why they need to expand the plant? I guess maybe they are expecting they will need a higher capacity with the reaction the Scouts have been getting.
Update: never mind i found out why,
