  • 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.

    Do You Want Your Scout To Have A Hands-Free Driving System?

    I am very optimistic after seeing Rivians recent demo of their self driving tech.

    Vehicle Visualizer/Configurator Tool

    Bumping out of boredom. Hoping this comes out sooner rather than later.

    That’s where the shovel comes in.

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    No it’s completely fair. The Overland thing has captured a lot of the “Glamper” market. Many of the expensive things people buy to kit their vehicles out only get used a few times. A lot of it is just to look the part. You can still have a great time with a cooler and a ground tent in a Geo...

    VW is scaling back their investment in PowerCo and signaled they will be looking for outside investors to help with cash flow.

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    Listen buttheads… I’ve got nothing. Too true 🤣 Though everything I have as far as camping gear stuffed in there is all ultralight stuff now, like backpackers use. It’s pretty expensive compared to regular camping and overland gear. But it packs down very small and usually weighs far less so...

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    I’ve been a busy bee. Haven’t been posting much. Got the new Mosko Moto Reckless 80 luggage system. Tested it on my commute for a few days with an entire camping setup. It’s rock solid. Very impressed with the quality. Between that and the Rade Garage skidplate I have around 85L of storage...

    Bigger Gas Tank - 15 Gallons is Abysmal

    I’m not stressed about it. The aftermarket industry always fills in the gaps. My motorcycle has a 3.4 gallon tank that is integrated into the rear subframe, and the factory airbox is where a normal fuel tank would be under the seat. I wanted more range and a company in the Czech Republic...

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    I mean heck, the way I see it, I got a bunch of free upgrades for the bike in exchange for a sore ankle. Ill take that deal anytime :cool:

    I would love some Weathtech style floormats along with the carpeted ones if they have some lively options. I am pretty fastidious about my cars interiors and dont allow food or colored drinks in them, so I think the carpeted ones would be fine for daily use. If I am going on an adventure or...

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    Just a little update. Other party finally answered when claim adjuster called. He was dodging them for a while. They admitted fault. Witness corroborated my story. They cut a check for the damage to the bike, with some extra for medical stuff... Which I wasn't expecting. The claims adjuster...

    Those floor mats are a vibe I can get behind. It's cool to see a little personality down there.

    Won't work for my needs, but still a rad little vehicle. If I was kid free and in my twenties again I would be all over this thing.

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    Appreciate all the support from everyone. Just waiting to hear back from the attorney if they can represent me and what the police report says. Apparently road rage is considered an intentional act, so it means insurance won't cover it and the only option is a civil suit, which isn't worth it...

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    Honestly the cops that were talking to me were right. Even though I was boxed in, I probably should have just jumped the curb and ridden to the nearest police station if he was still following me instead of getting off my bike and confronting the guy. Could have been way worse. I was on my way...

    The Garage (What did you work on today?)

    Well.... funny you should mention that. (cracks knuckles) Been riding it a lot since the wife smashed her van and is driving my Lexus. Over 1,500 miles in less than a month. Already had the first service done. BUT.. I was on my way into town Thursday night to pick up something from Academy...

    Still haven't gotten mine. Did log in the website and added my address. Wonder what I will get since I still have two reservations...
