  • 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.

    Aftermarket ultra-light truck bed cap differentiator

    I remember my dad getting the inflatable gasket (like a big rectangular inner tube) that went between the cab an topper to make a pass through. We rode back there on a family road trip one summer. Ahh... the '80's.

    Aftermarket ultra-light truck bed cap differentiator

    I personally would like it to be a pretty HD cap/topper/camper shell that would seal to the cab, but be Scout designed to look like it was intentional in styling. That way you have the place for your gear/stinkies/wet stuff that doesn't have to go the in the passenger area but could be secured...

    Under steering column vent

    Scout could be the hero of men (and probably some women, I can't speak for them) everywhere, and bring back the "Crotch Cooler vent" like on the old trucks back in the day. Ventilated seats help, but directed air is something else entirely.

    Front bench lower docking console

    They could actually do as well as the removable console, like on some of the 90's trucks. You pull a handle on the dash/flip down (looks like one of 'em ol' fashioned ashtrays) and a two spot drink holder folds out. That's what they did for this exact reason. It would have just been over the...

    Front bench lower docking console

    Correct, but to add to it to make it more of a true console when the center seat is folded down (which will be most of the time for most people) . Otherwise that is just an empty wasted space between the lower part of the seat and the dash.

    Subscriptions / Updates

    I'm sure it's in here somewhere. No REQUIRED subscriptions! If I pay for an option once let me have it! Same for ability to do updates etc. Let me connect to my home wifi for this or my phone hotspot. I don't need another hotspot service running from the vehicle that I need to pay for

    Front bench lower docking console

    I think something that would be awesome and super useful if you go with the bench seat would be a lower console portion that docks in between the seat and dash. Pull a release and it unlocks for removal with a secure dockable storage location in the frunk. Or just leave it at home in the...

    Blindspot Mirrors in Sideview Mirrors!

    This was on my list to suggest, but hadn't gotten back to doing it. Do, I'll just tag on here. This and/or auto tilt down mirrors for backing up etc for curbs. Call me analog, I know all the camera views will help, but they're always a little distorted or dirty. My side mirrors usually stay...

    Glass pano roof w/retractable drivable shade

    I know I'm late on this. Had the idea a while back and forgot to post. The glass operable pano roof would be awesome (on all vehicles), but add the feature of a motorized mesh shade that could be in the CLOSED position while driving at speed. I love open air driving but hate getting my head...

    Tailgate a bit more old school?

    Ding ding ding! Winner winner chicken dinner!

    Tailgate a bit more old school?

    I guess it makes sense why they have the whole top hatch open; it is really nice to have that coverage overhead if raining.

    Dedicated space for trash and tissues and overall cleanliness?

    I just hang a plastic shopping bag handle (regretfully you'll always have one around) from the glove box door next to the console in the passenger footwell. Easy change out and not too intrusive for the passenger. I'm also a recyclemaniac and actually use the shopping bag/purse hangers from...

    Cold Climate Auxiliary Heat From Harvester ICE

    Additional option for the heat, warm the battery packs in colder climates for better range etc. Could this be done similar to radiant floor heating? And actually radiate the heat on up into the cab?
