  • 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.

    Are there ways to be involved?

    I’m in! Shall I submit my resume in this thread? I could be a crash test dummy.

    Navigation and Co-Pilots

    I have not seen a new wagoneer yet, not the interior anyway, but that sounds cool. Ford is making their own version of On-x or Gaia type maps that integrate with the infotainment system and the ford pass app. It was supposed to be done a long ass time ago, but ya know…FORD. It actually sounds...

    Idea: Cradle to Delivery

    Ford sent what people call their “baby pictures“ of their broncos rolling off the assembly line. They’re basically built in just a couple days (except for the unfortunate dirt mountain builds), so they don’t send a series of progress photos. I never got my baby picture, many others didn’t...

    So what does everyone think of the first new Scout designs...

    I would love to be involved somehow in the testing. Put me in a vehicle that I don’t owe money on or have to pay to repair, and I’ll find all the weak points.

    Good call. I like that idea.

    So what does everyone think of the first new Scout designs...

    A lot of the suggestions in here are characteristics of wranglers and broncos. I agree with most of them. I’d like to see a real electric off-roader that doesn’t break the bank like the hummers. I like the body on frame modular design that’s easy to modify and add aftermarket accessories. I love...

    So what does everyone think of the first new Scout designs...

    I know I’m not the one you were responding to, but I’m very happy with my bronco. It’s certainly not like there’s nothing to criticize. I’m not brand loyal at all, and I’ve never been a Ford guy even though I currently have the bronco and an old 7.3 powerstroke. Both of my work trucks are Chevys...

    So what does everyone think of the first new Scout designs...

    This list is exactly what drew people to the Broncos, and if they check all those boxes, I’ll be a buyer. I just hope that the rollout of these Scouts isn’t as much of a shit show as the bronco reboot.

    So what does everyone think of the first new Scout designs...

    The near vertical slant on windshields results in rock chips being much more common. Even Jeep sloped the windshields more on the JLs. I have a new Bronco, I was on my second windshield in less than three months and the new one was already chipped three weeks later. There are tons of other...
