  • 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.

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

    This makes a lot of sense. And this may be a bigger niche than most of think. I was a partner in a local delivery service in the early ‘80’s in Boise, and with side-opening toppers the Slate would have been the perfect solution.

    I’m blessed, I have good students and parents.

    Air Suspension vs. Coils - Long Term Durability vs. Real Capability

    Think I’ll exercise some discretion here

    EV reservation holders, would you consider the Harvester

    Hmmm… Goldilocks. Find her in the PBY scout.

    Air Suspension vs. Coils - Long Term Durability vs. Real Capability

    Standard 40’ conventional. Our old busses had air-leafs in the back, none of that on the new ones, just straight leaf springs with overloads.

    Air Suspension vs. Coils - Long Term Durability vs. Real Capability

    What’s the big deal? The suspension in my school bus is a brick.

    Concern about the complexity and cost of repairs/maintenance for EREV

    This looks like a wash to me. You will have all of these factors for any ICE vehicle you buy.

    Scout Traveler and Terra Photo Collections and Wallpapers

    This tire carrier on the Terra, and with a Continental kit.

    Concern about the complexity and cost of repairs/maintenance for EREV

    I don’t see how. There is absolutely no drive train encumbering the generator.

    November 2025 Scout Motors Production Center Update

    The driver said “Get the 7734 out of the way, I’m coming through!”

    Air Suspension vs. Coils - Long Term Durability vs. Real Capability

    I’d like to see this on the Black Bear, first switchback below the ruins.

    Air Suspension vs. Coils - Long Term Durability vs. Real Capability

    Yes, I see this as a gimmick only. I mean really….

    Are you OK with Scout vehicles starting under $60K?

    Just like Wayne and Garth… “…you’re not worthy…”. :p

    Ideas for the revamps and the Travelers Sister!

    You know, the Silo color isn’t that far from CSG—just a little sparkly-er.

    CYURE GOES TO CHICAGO 12/10/2025

    There was plenty of room in the old 4-cylinder Scouts for this sort of thing.

    No need for a bib, you are going to hose it out, remember!
