  • 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.

    The weird part to me here is that some people didn't know that this was a temporary price. When Elon said that it was a 10 day only price. I had a buddy who actually was looking into the CT apparently due to this price drop, but he was surprised when I showed him it was for 10 days only. To be...

    Key Fob question

    Like you, I hate carrying things in my pockets. I don't know if I could handle using the phone as a key, because, well, things can go wrong, and batteries can die/phones can get lost. Doing a 4 day backpacking trip, and having to make sure that your phone has charge goes from "thats a nice...

    Spare Tire, Backpack, or Bald?

    Agreed. I really, really hope the frunk stays around. They are a game changer, especially for the terra. Simply because as you say, it’s another easy to access storage area that is watertight. So things like grocery store runs, with the kids, in the rain, get wayyyy easier. As I’ve...

    Harvester Battery Stage of Charge Question

    My PHEV probably has something like this, but I've not yet hit that limit. That said my PHEV only has a ~30 mile EV range, and the longest we've been able to go between fillups is something like 2-3 months (I think it was about 2300 miles on an 11 gallon tank), and it never came on...

    Nada here too. Good to know. I've got a buddy locally who has a Terra reservation. Guess I'll see when he gets his compared to when I get mine.

    Dixxon partnership, & EV whirring

    I agree, the onus should be on the driver for not running people over, but also think that having some noise to make people aware of a vehicles location without them having to turn and look at it does help with safety. No, its not going to prevent a kid from running into the street to get a...

    Super cool. Mark and I lived in the same area after I graduated from college and were involved in helping out the same youth group for a few years. I won’t claim to know him super well, but I saw him once or twice a week for a few years, and was conversational with him. We did some activities...

    All terrain tires

    That is embarassing :O. Yeah, thats why I went with the more "extreme" end of the on road AT, because the "most street oriented" AT's... looked like... they'd get you stuck in wet grass, even with a 4wd truck :D. You're also right about the driving through the wet, especially if you've got...

    Is there anything SM could offer to get you to switch from EREV to BEV?

    Uh, just chiming in here really quick, because it looks like a mis-type was here, but I think people might be taking it at face value. I have a 40 amp 240v outlet in the garage, with a Emporia L2 charger (well, an EVSE, but lets not get into that :P). As you say, that means you're charging at a...

    All terrain tires

    Agreed with everything here. And while strange, it is common to have a non-standard version of a tire for use as the OEM tire on a specific vehicle. The Cybertruck was one of those as well IIRC. Something about it being a normal tire, but with already-reduced tread depth for better mileage...

    Dixxon partnership, & EV whirring

    This. The actual law says something to the effect of "if a vehicle is moving without a combustion engine running, it needs to make noise of this volume under this speed". And its been that way since like ~2021 or so. Its because at low speeds, vehicles without engines running are quite hard to...

    Traveler Liftgate lighting

    This came up in another thread, but wanted to post it here, just for visibility. I'd love a light (or two) tucked into the edge of the liftgate, for use to illuminate the area both under the liftgate, and the surrounding area while the liftgate is open. Nothing crazy, just some small lights...

    Help me decide BEV or EREV

    Yep, any time I see a storm on the forecast that looks "serious" I make sure that the EV is topped off. Even if I keep the charging limit at 80%, I want to make sure that I am at 80%, rather than at ~40-60% in an outage. My EV can only put out 120v x 15amps, use all that much in the house, but...

    Scout delayed??

    Frunk is a huge appeal for me. Bike rack makes getting into the cargo area in an SUV harder/more annoying. Having the helmets/pads/etc in the frunk, would be great. Especially if it had airflow/could keep it from smelling like something died in there , then I'd feel better about keeping the...

    I put in my data way later than most. So I'm assuming I'll see it... someday, maybe in time for Christmas even :P. (nothing yet)

    I too would like additional discussion about PeanutButterYellow (sorry, even after all this time, I read that, still did the double take/read it exactly as above.) (something must be wrong in my brain)

    Rain/fog Lights in the rear

    I think having really bright reverse lights is a very useful request. We've all been backing up at some point in the dark, and barely able to see where we're going. My father and I put a 65w light on the rear bumper of our '97 Wrangler back in the day. It was super useful. Both in normal day to...
