  • 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.

    2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger Production Run Will Be Short

    There’s all sorts of rumors of a new Dodge model with a V8. Only time will tell on the rumors (I’ve heard the name “Cuda” whispered for years now). The Ramcharger has the potential to be a cool option. I have a reservation on the Traveler with the Harvester package, and I’m excited to see what...

    2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger Production Run Will Be Short

    I think with Tim Kuniskis back as Ram’s CEO, the focus will be more on gas powered trucks than EV’s, so this shift doesn’t shock me. Lots of rumors of the Hellcat returning in 2026 as a street truck, or the rebirth of the TRX. I think the Ramcharger will be a great new product for Ram (if they...

    What are you driving until release?

    Current daily driver. I don’t see this truck ever going away. The Scout will take over daily driver chores.

    Stickers! And other decor...

    As a rule I’ve never been a huge sticker guy. That said, I have a Montana sticker and a San Juan Island Brewery sticker on the back of the truck right now. The San Juan Island Brewery very well could be my favorite place on earth.

    Harvester Talk: Q&A

    I spend all day at work around diesel motors, and the last thing I want in a personal vehicle is a diesel. DEF, Filters, EGR Coolers, DEF tanks freezing or breaking, the list goes on. A diesel engine back in 2004 before all the mandates was great. These new diesels are a mess for day to day...

    360 Camera Auto On

    I agree on removing speed limits on the camera. There are times I want to travel faster than 12mph and still use my camera.

    Grab handle on drivers side A-pillar

    Hell, I’m 6’8” and use the driver side grab handle every day in my truck. It’s a feature I would have assumed all new trucks/suv’s had.

    Harvester- No Gas Cap

    Not having a gas cap, and having push button start have changed how I look at vehicles. Two simple pleasures that I enjoy. Maybe a little lame, but again, I like the little things.

    What kind of tech do you expect enabled in the car or interface?

    I agree 100% about the 15 minute thing. But when I get out, shut the door, and head to my mailbox I really don't need the truck to honk twice. Now if I walk away and 10 minutes later haven't come back, then honk away. Side question/Random Thought: When I walk away from my current Ram and...

    What kind of tech do you expect enabled in the car or interface?

    I'm pretty sure the owners manual in my Ram gives me the steps to disarm the chime (something to the effect of buckle/unbuckle three times in 60 seconds with the truck in accessory but not started). I'm hoping for something like this with the Scout. I understand the safety part of it, but I'd...

    What kind of tech do you expect enabled in the car or interface?

    I’m not sure this has come up, but let us disable the seatbelt chime. I don’t care if there is a warning on the screen, but there are times in a vehicle where I don’t need or want to wear a seatbelt. Please let me disabled the chime.

    CLOSED! Audio System Brand Poll

    B&O was somewhere between marginal and terrible in my Raptor. I really like the Harmon Kardon in my TRX.

    What Was The Biggest Automotive Story Of 2024?

    To me it would be something like this: EV News: The Scout and then the ultimate disaster of the new Dodge Charger ICE News: The return of Tim Kuniskis to Ram and possible resurrection of the Hellcat Engines

    Camp mode

    I was thinking the same thing. It’s a “Oh Shit” handle for the middle seat.

    Scout Supply Merchandise Live

    @Jamie@ScoutMotors is there a plan for stickers/window decals like your avatar? Just the white lettering would be cool.

    Scott Keogh's 2024 Holiday Message

    I agree 100%. I’ve never reserved a vehicle before, nor have I ever had any interest in an EV. Yet here I sit with a reservation. I’m excited for Scout’s future.

    2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger's Production Timeline Leapfrogs the EV

    Dodge and Ram are not EV Brands. That’s not what their customer base is. The new Dodge Charger is an overpriced mess. I think with Tim back at the helm, he saw what was going on. Lots of rumors of Hellcat’s coming back, as well as a new gas powered V-8. The Ram Ramcharger really is where they...

    Too much AI

    I’ve never experienced the whole hands free driving thing. That said, I won’t buy another vehicle that doesn’t have adaptive cruise. We do a lot of two lane highways with limited passing zones, and setting the adaptive cruise so it sets pace with the rest of traffic takes a lot of stress out of...

    Road Trip in a VW Buzz: Success or Train Wreck

    I have a hunch you and I are in the same boat on a lot of fronts. I’d love to have multiple vehicles for different uses, but the budget doesn’t allow for that. Vacation time is also a premium, and in my line of work taking two weeks off at a time normally isn’t an option. As a non EV owner...

    Road Trip in a VW Buzz: Success or Train Wreck

    Knowing that we will have access to Tesla’s charging system is good info. That may have been something I’ve missed along the way.
