  • 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.

    You would think there'd still be a need for storefronts even with DTC, so still a place for "dealerships" - just not the way they currently exist. Which means less money because they won't be able to be sneaky about add-ons, or as was linked above, bait & switch tactics. It's always about the...

    That article, and the sketches/concepts in it, is definitely interesting, but I could have sworn there was an actual scene with a truck even closer in design to the Cybertruck. Must be some kind of Mandela Effect situation and/or I'm blurring a bunch of sci-fi armored vehicles together (similar...

    That original redesign for the Mustang was AWESOME. And to clarify, I don't think it's necessarily bad - I also liked the Challenger retro design & the New Beetle was a fun spin on that classic - I just wouldn't want everything to be retro-ized. That's just the opposite end of the spectrum from...

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

    You mean you don't miss having one of these bad boys in the passenger seat? LOL This wasn't a 100% serious suggestion - so maybe it should have gone in another thread - but kind of felt like a similar idea to conversations in the forum on physical buttons, air vents, etc. And I'm not really...

    I don't think everything needs to be retro - there's plenty of articles about the pitfalls of nostalgia - the funny thing is, even these "futuristic" designs are based on the future from a retro/80s point of view. The Tesla unapologetically (for better or worse) took the design of the Cybertruck...

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

    I was driving around the other day & was thinking about how much listening to music has changed since I started driving. Streaming is great because you have access to everything - but you also have access to EVERYTHING. Algorithms either feed you what they want to, or keep you stuck in a loop...

    But notice that all of the articles base their content on the GM Authority report - the last one you linked - and even that is just a bunch of "maybe". I almost thought Car & Driver was also original - but in that one's opening paragraph there's a link to...

    Articles like this are why the internet was a mistake. There is 0 actual information, just guessing and rumors. Love this line though: "None of the rumors are definitive about how a new 2029 Jimmy will look. That said, as we understand things, GM is considering two paths: modern or retro."...

    GAH - the satin finish is dooope. Being naive about auto paint - is the gloss/satin a difference in finishing or sealing? Or are they completely separate paints? Basically - how complicated it is to have a gloss option & a satin option for multiple colors?

    They just wanted to make you look bad after your stock price comment. Hahaha

    New Traveler Color Concept - Satin White Traveler

    The door handle lights are a nice touch - but they look reeeally bright in this. Also pretty cool that the mirror light highlights the Harvester badge/door. Not sure if that was intentional (wouldn't be surprised though)?

    Someone needs to redesign your website

    Yeah, I assumed it was the forum software since I'm sure Scout didn't build one from scratch. And as someone who works with a 3rd party CMS, I know it's not always easy to address things like this. That being said, it is annoying & I've learned to not open that menu. hahaha

    Scout Supply Merchandise Live

    My guess is there's not an actual full font based on the logo, so you'll have to the .svg off the Trademark page. Or don't do that - copyright & all that. ;)

    Scout Color Poll #1

    I love that semi-matte or whatever. I hope it's available for a couple colors. Really want to see the Traveler Tahitian Red with the semi-matte finish.

    My wife's parents live in Seattle, so if it was a little further out we might have been able to take a trip (& I could make a detour). But I have no desire to see what flights would look like only 2-3 weeks out. Hahaha

    Yeah the order got me too. Need those 2025 dates moved into a "Previous Events" section if they're worth keeping. I almost told @cyure she needs to start planning another Chicago trip. lol
