  • 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.

    Even better, use these switches: https://www.concordaerospace.com/products/copy-of-customizable-apollo-command-module-triple-switch-panel A bit spendy, but so much more fun!

    I have been assured multiple times the originals in the 60s and 70s shipped from the factory pre-rusted :ROFLMAO:

    Will the Scout EREV be obsolete by the time it gets here in 2027/28?

    A colleague shared the best observation about AI as a tool. Even Harbor Freight sells more reliable tools than AI vendors. Put that on your ratchet and torque it. :ROFLMAO:

    dammit, hot coffee warning labels are because McDonald's couldn't be arsed to serve coffee in cups with reasonable insulation. At least that is my read on it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebeck_v._McDonald's_Restaurants

    Will the Scout EREV be obsolete by the time it gets here in 2027/28?

    Hey now, checking today some of those are listed at under $20k. Which is maybe low enough that an enterprising person could buy one, gut the gas parts and replace it with batteries, I don't care what chemistry, keep the buttons, install a retrosound radio and I would be perfectly happy driving...

    Don't let the Scout become a status symbol; why $60k misses the point of the Revival

    The configurator is still a fun game. Maybe someday they can get the price down to the $50K range and range up to 270ish, then I would definitely be interested when the lease on my Ioniq 5 runs out. I have a feeling though that those goals may not be possible for Jeep. Nonetheless in the...

    I say about 1987, but maybe they were lost even before then. I didn't get my license until 1990, 1991, whatever it took I guess, I've forgotten the details. Source: https://www.cnbc.com/2019/07/03/lee-iacocca-achievements-saving-chrysler-buying-jeep-minivans.html "He set his sights on...

    Don't let the Scout become a status symbol; why $60k misses the point of the Revival

    I think this thread has drifted enough that can I list a feature that is critically important to Scout Motors regardless of price point. Accurate range estimation. In other words, don't be like Tesla https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/tesla-batteries-range/...

    Don't let the Scout become a status symbol; why $60k misses the point of the Revival

    It feels like there is always an article from theverge.com. Probably my best decision as far media to subscribe to. https://www.theverge.com/cs/features/938196/rivian-r2-ev-factory-supply-chain There is definitely some selective interpretation of the recent past in EVs in this article that I...

    Don't let the Scout become a status symbol; why $60k misses the point of the Revival

    Thank you for your sincere response and I did not misunderstand your post that I responded to. I was a bit wound up when I decided to reply last night and so I am the one who perhaps owes an apology for being unnecessarily argumentative. And still I am tempted to explain that there is a lot of...

    Ok I'll take the bait. Shame on me. But I will provide a link for each assertion I make. Just as Milton Friedman would have it. Shareholders first! Everyone else doesn't count...

    FB find of the day

    This is an old one, and a great photo and what seems like a great adventurer. I heard him speak once and it was a cool talk, and he grew up in the same town as me. https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10153137785503844&set=a.10151121260658844

    FB find of the day

    For anybody who doesn't know, that Stewart Wallace guy is using an alias based on the Beastie Boys Sabotage music video character and was ripping off other people's artwork if I remember correctly. He blocked me on the book of faces a long time ago.

    Are you my climbing gym partner? Because you sound an awful lot like him :ROFLMAO: Yeah, I agree, I'd be satisfied with just getting rid of some of this soft core :). Both for me and the Trex like applique.
