  • 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.

    I watch a lot of stuff these guys produce and it’s informative. However—they have documented so many troubles with the Rivian that personally I won’t go any where near one (purchase wise). My one fear is that the problems Rivian is experiencing will bleed over into Scout. Personally, if I had...

    This doesn’t make much sense. If they leave the Harvester gas filler door where it is that would be a long and convoluted filler neck to a tank under the rear seat.

    My Dad was very meticulous about labeling ALL of his work… and there is a boat load of slides from the late ‘40’s into the ‘90’s.

    Fun at the Black Bear. First sign is/was at the start of the BB from the top of Red Mountain pass. The second one is/was at the top of the switchbacks above Telluride. Another fun warning on Colorado trails.

    Camping out the of the ‘62, in the summer of 1964. Dad built a chuck box to fit in the back to hold some food and most of the cooking utensils for meals. The rear seat was rear facing against the bulkhead separating the front bench. The chuck box was sized to fit allowing us two boys about 12”...

    6-ScoutFamily’s Scouting Memories

    June 1962: Not a Scout but the red 1960 CJ5 that eventually became mine in 1972. I bought it from the original owner who had converted a Dauntless V6, Warn overdrive, automatic hubs, a half-cab, a small bed extension making it an “extended bed pickup”, and a Handyman jack mounted on the front...

    This is what happens when ‘Gummint’ sticks it big nose where it doesn’t belong. The big-3’s EV-driven financial problems sit squarely there, along with plenty of their own help. If SM pulls this off—and I believe they will—Ford, GM, & Ram will be distant, distant also-ran’s.

    And yet I’ve seen three different ones here in town.
