  • 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.

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

    I have a 2015 F150 with a bench front. It’s just 3 separate seats slammed together. Center doesn’t move except to move the seat back up/down. Storage under the seat part, storage inside the seat back. Both driver/passenger seats have power slide and recline. I just imagine this is essentially...

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

    To be fair, I wasn't really thinking implemented into the bedsides like the Rambox. I was thinking strictly aftermarket style toolboxes. But yea, that's probably the closest factory/aftermarket implementation to what I'm thinking since you can still access the boxes while also still able to open...

    Yea, I'm fine with voice controls for simple things like switching songs, making a phone call, even shooting a text off, but no way in hell do I want it (like you'd said before) for basic car functions.

    Right? I even shut off the navigations voice directions because they interrupt my music.

    How did you find out about the new Scouts?

    I first heard about Scout from one of my many searches for EV trucks. This was immediately after they had released the initial side sketches. I kept my eyes out, heard about the reveal that was coming and tuned in a day later to watch the reveal in video. I was smitten immediately.

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

    This is a very niche thing, but I think it would be super useful for me. The is an accessory rather than a built-in feature though. That said, I think the off-roading community could get some good use out of something like this. Full-length shallow side tool boxes, with a rigid tonneau between...

    20-24 mpg

    Same, I get 14 mpg, so 24 average sounds like a huge upgrade overall.

    20-24 mpg

    Realistically it's an important metric though. If the point of the Harvester is to be able to go farther, then people would still need to/like to know how efficient it is, and MPG makes the most sense, regardless of it charging the battery or being directly connected to the driveline. Either...

    I honestly hope for the best though, because we know good innovative products drive competition and make a win for all of us.

    Dodge, Chrysler, and Jeep have somehow managed to reinvent themselves so many times over the years that I won't totally discount them... but I'm also not holding my breath.

    A Gift From Scout Motors

    Had received the book the other day, and as an example I opened it up to a random page and it was all about the Redwoods and that general area. I’m taking it as a sign cause the wife and I have been talking about a trip for a long time there.

    FB find of the day

    Everybody looks down when looking into a vehicle. Nobody thinks to look up for the murder weapon!

    That is true. I can't imagine how much bigger some of those places would have to be to accommodate seating too!

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

    It's not just "BRISKET ON THE BOARDDDDD!" It is the truth, the way, the light!

    I remember on another forum years ago someone basically laughing at me for suggesting that the Maverick would be perfect for a small landscaper, pool cleaners, parts deliver, etc. They suggested they'd never be used that way. Yea... seems like about every 5th one I see is being used for those...

    So Toyota Rav4 truck, or a Maverick competitor. It'd sell.

    Boring? That's easily the most exciting Acura I've ever seen design-wise, lol. :ROFLMAO:

    Honda going for some Lambo vibes in the front there. I don't hate that actually, but agree with speedrye that it doesn't exactly look like a sedan in my mind.
