  • 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.

    Question about Pedal Feel and Driving Characteristics

    Search regen and one-pedal driving. Tons of discussion about how it will / could/ would / should be implemented. Did you adjust the strength of the regen when you were test driving? If you did not adjust the regen setting to low and it was set at high, then I would imagine that it would "feel"...

    Full time dash 360 cam

    I usually see the notification right in the app to make the update to the truck. Pops up a reminder on the screen in the truck when ready too. How do over-the-air (OTA) updates work? You’ll receive a notification and details on the update via the Rivian app and through your in-vehicle...

    Full time dash 360 cam

    That is not the only time you record events via gear guard. Things like hard braking will automatically record video under the "INCIDENTS" tab in Gear Guard. Also, see below: https://stories.rivian.com/software-update-2023-14-0

    Package options - what would you like bundled?

    Could go in a small compartment under the dash to the left of the steering wheel (above where you might find a manual hood-pull lever). Some cars / trucks have a secret compartment there for sunglasses.

    Package options - what would you like bundled?

    I would def exchange a compass for a drop-down overhead sunglass holder (if that was a configuration option). I would use the sunglass holder virtually every time I get in the truck when its not raining. Despite using a compass all the time while maintaining a heading in a boat (even with GPS...

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    Obvs 100% NOT.

    Package options - what would you like bundled?

    Yes, context is also important, since this will be Scout Motors first drop. Some considerations that come to mind: 1. Scout will leverage VW's massive buying power, which should result in strong value 2. Scout has set a bar around ~$60K for entry (and there has been no talk of that being a...

    Extra, Extra....Read All About It!

    Maybe, if we get to use Waze directly through the head unit and on the infotainment screen (at a barebones minimum)... We already get native app integration (like Spotify) so if Rivian can add more apps like Waze I might get over it. For now I will continue use Waze on my phone in parallel while...

    Pictures From Rodeo Event: Ft Worth, TX

    Plz remind me. Have we seen the updated Terra yet, but with the current Traveller tire & wheelset (all black / 35"s)? I know we have seen the silver and black version, but not sure if we have seen the all black version on the Terra and would like to see that. I have no interest in a ~20% or so...

    Scout Concepts in Fort Worth, Texas October 2, 2025

    Here, let me fix that for you. I like the retro modern steelie rugged but aero look of that wheel actually.

    What is one feature you hope Scout will include that has not yet been shown?

    It's def a thing everywhere. It blew wide open during COVID when you couldn't go in the lodge, but they eventually shut down parking lots and closed ski areas in New England, so then it became all backcountry skiing at that point out here. We used to grill and chill at the base (and still do)...

    Switching Harvester to All EV Model?

    Probably missed their tanker delivery and ran out of fuel.

    Toolbox

    Scout can sell all the axes they want (as accessories)... The same way any OEM may partner with third parties to develop specific add-ons that may work well with their vehicles. Keep in mind that these are all prototypes and prototype accessories. Since we don't yet have a production spec, and...

    Luxury features I would like to See

    I'm assuming you will keep the Jeep (based on the lifetime warranty) when your Scout arrives? Those types of warranties are either hard to come by now, or super expensive I'm guessing

    Luxury features I would like to See

    You posted something and I responded to it with actual data, now you appear to be triggered by my response. LOL. Its OK! I actually agreed with half of your post anyway.

    Luxury features I would like to See

    I agree with everything you are saying about the relationship between Scout and Rivian. They will be 2 completely different vehicles/brands. But, if Rivians speak to speak to an "elevated social class", as you state, then Lexxus is speaking to an even more "elevated" audience. You would be...

    2 door Terra option

    Can't believe that thing doesn't have truk nutz.... Usually those drivers are severely overcompensating for something. LOL.

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    No doubt - if that tractor was a Muppet it would be this one

    What would your last vehicle be if you had to decide today

    Duh.

    0-60 times with harvester

    I think most adults with driving experience (and perhaps some increased level of maturity with age) come to realize that going 90MPH instead of 80MPH over the course of a 1-hour drive is NOT really that meaningful and really doesn't allow you to spend that much more time with your family and...
