  • 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.

    And each Scout woody version comes with fresh pretzels and a pie.

    June 2026 Scout Production Center Update

    I'm a firm believer in turning Facebook commenting off. Edit: Wow, just read the comments on the FB plant "flythrough?" I'm doubling down on my opinion about turning off comments.

    I've heard that the Amish are going to do the wood sides and interior accents.

    June 2026 Scout Production Center Update

    If the moon landing was fake, why not the Scout factory? It's all an elaborate ruse to get our fully refundable $100 deposits. I have it from a known authority that all those buildings are really a new Amazon distribution center!

    The day I painted said garage's floor.

    Off-topic stuff…

    Only in congested urban settings where the speed limit never goes above 25mph (other than the golf cart use case).

    Time of year for factory pick up.

    Did I miss something? Are there details on the factory pick up option somewhere?

    I just like the concept of a showroom garage / workshop as part of the family room :) I don't think my wife would approve, even though her dad was a race car driver.

    June 2026 Scout Production Center Update

    I'm not that bad. I just need a garage that fits n + 1 (n = vehicles). Or maybe 1 1/2. Too much stuff gets thrown into the garage: bikes, fridge, snowblower, generator, outdoor decor....

    Scout Traveler and Terra Photo Collections and Wallpapers

    Looks like near Camp Roberts where I spent some time.

    June 2026 Scout Production Center Update

    I'm in a cookie-cutter colonial. I haven't been able to fit a vehicle in it for 20 years. As soon as a refrigerator went into the garage, there was no room for any vehicles front to back to open the fridge door (or if on the side, without opening a car door). My scout may have to require a...

    One Giant Leap Into the World of EV Ownership

    Probably less partying and more isolation. He's an introvert and his freshman roommate left after 2 days - never replaced. 2nd year roommate's father passed away after about a month or two and he left - never replaced. Apple Annie's is still great for lunch and grabbing some cookies for the...

    One Giant Leap Into the World of EV Ownership

    Wow, you're right; I really expected something more, maybe at the Sam's. I'd need a charge station next to the Apple Annie's. The way it's looking, WVU will be my son's college home for 5 or more years. Right now it's a race to see which is first: graduate or the Scout gets built!

    One Giant Leap Into the World of EV Ownership

    With the exception of my yearly trip to NW Maine (which I'll probably never make in my own vehicle), I think my only frequent trips that would require a bit more planning for charging would be to Morgantown, WV (Via I-68), and Tennessee on I-81. And I-81 now has a Buc-ees in VA!

    One Giant Leap Into the World of EV Ownership

    Really appreciate all this info and experience shared. I need to do some serious vehicle lifespan expense math. Currently signed up for a Harvester for a bunch of reasons but, I have to admit, a large one is the fear of the unknown.

    Wow, certainly faster than when I hiked up or took the cog train. :)

    Off-topic stuff…

    Yup. This is Canada Falls Lake. We hit Rockwood (phone our families goodbye) and head up 20 Mile Road to get into the North Maine Woods. Hours on logging roads to nowhere. It's a long hike out if you forgot a jump pack or generator. Of course, if our logging road bridges get any worse, I...

    Where? Those mountains look a bit larger and steeper than we I go in ME.

    Park is closed, folks. The moose should have told you.
