  • 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.

    Audio System Brand Poll 2.0

    Me either but even reasonable 35’s with good tires will add noise and it looks SO good with 35’s. Just have to play music loud enough to tone down the road noise.

    It’s just the nature of larger off road tires. I here trucks a 1-4 mile out sometimes at night-maybe a bit less distance but far enough away it shouldn’t be heard so the interior sound has got to be overwhelming

    Longer Range battery option

    But to back track, people doing a lot of long hauling probably aren’t meant for a Scout in the first place considering most ICE’s that can tow don’t get anywhere near 500 miles and if they do a fill up is over $70. Just my opinion

    Oooh-them there is fightin’ words. We got a fox in the hen house but since you found him there that makes you guilty by association - hmmmm! 🧐

    Agreed. I think my wife said we are around .13-.14/ kWh including distribution fee.

    I still need to vote-hmmmmm! Dana for nostalgia or AAM for value (presumably)

    Longer Range battery option

    Now can someone break down how many times you can charge to 80% at home before ever hitting that mark. Gotta be years worth of just no reason for crazy range and $$$ batteries

    Bench Seat vs Standard

    I’m leaning in your camp but nostalgia is my hesitation

    Longer Range battery option

    Exactly. Many of us are making $60K work with add ons and now it would be double that price. I’ll keep the extra $60K and have nicer meals every time I stop to charge on road trips which is like 60 years and I do t plan living past 100-or 90 for that matter. Just isn’t worth the added cost for...

    What about tariffs on the college kids????

    Which begs the question-who leaked the info early? I can’t imagine SM didn’t want to make this announcement on their own side of things. Me wonders if someone is getting a smack upside the head for releasing this info?

    The parts at least appeared to be made from real metal. The air compressor was 100% 3-d printed but it looked good from a few feet away

    Guess Dana couldn’t get pricing good enough-was sure it would be Dana

    Longer Range battery option

    So in theory to get to 500 on EV is another 150 miles so probably $12K. I figure a resto scout II these days runs around $65-$100K and with a 19 gallon tank gets roughly 198 miles range on a tank so a new Scout for $75K, all the safety, comfort creatures, LACK OF RUST, no fuel burning and nearly...

    Longer Range battery option

    True but no way in 3 years solid state will only be $3K. It’s the next premium hurdle and first few years will be a significant premium. I’m still gonna confidently say it will be gen 2 scouts before there is even a chance of solid state. Maybe another improved chemistry at mid model updates but...

    Longer Range battery option

    Well I commend you for having realistic expectations as I would think $10K-$18K so right in there with your thinking. The issue I see with that even 5-8 years from now means a nicely loaded Scouts would be $85-$90k which would eliminate so many buyers it probably wouldn’t have a high enough take...
