  • 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.

    SEMA top 3

    So what (3) Scout concoctions or cool add ons would you love to see at SEMA. I mentioned it the other day with the blacked out Reaper Traveler. Maybe also the new Terra done in a modern livery of the Baja Terra.

    Most Iconic Location(s) for Scout Ads

    If there was one iconic location for SM to release the first production advertisement that represents everything about what Scouts are-where would it be and what would the activity/scenario be to convey the Scout Community, Scouts go first, 8 day a week, etc….

    SM Employees-show us your Scouts

    @Jamie@ScoutMotors and other SM associates. Can you show us any Scouts you may own? I know at least some of you own them. Many have shown you theirs-will you show us yours?

    2025 prototype paint project preferred colors

    Since we are touching base on the next round of prototype colors why not start a new thread. No voting but what’s your top choice of Terra and Traveler colors? We’ll see which color camps end up the closest. Knowing the Terra just did Baja, I’m thinking an earthy sand/gray beige for the Terra...

    E-brake

    So I was wondering. Do EV’s need E-brakes of any kind or due to frictions does emergency brake and/or parking brake even need to be there? Does computer just “lock” the friction so wheels don’t roll? EV is completely new to me and was just wondering? Thanks ahead of time!

    What will you typical cargo look like in your Scout?

    So wondering what we will all haul as our most common cargo load. For me it will be the goods to run archery tournaments along with sport canopy and chairs and a 68” long bow and the rest of my daughter’s gear. Second biggest cargo will be luggage to and from the airport. I’d say corpses but...

    Happy Friday

    Just thought we should make an official Happy Friday thread to make days like today easier for @Jamie@ScoutMotors and the SM team! Happy Friday!

    Easter eggs

    We touched on some of this randomly some time ago but wanted to start a dedicated thread. I’m hoping SM will throw some fun Easter Eggs at the new scouts but short of stealing Jeep ideas, are there any thoughts from anyone? Be creative because with the price of real eggs these days our ideas...

    Factory window tint

    We’ve talked a lot about the glass roofs but not windows. Since 98% of SUV’s come tinted in the rear-IF SM offers factory items like winches and possibly wraps I’d like to suggest factory added tint for the front windows and the strip at top of windshield. Offer a couple tint levels so people...

    In what movie franchise would you like to see the new Scout make an appearance?

    As noted the other day-for me it would be Jurassic Park, but all decked out like a proper action vehicle!

    Favorite Trader Joe’s product

    Well, since @SpaceEVDriver brought up his trip stop at Trader Joe’s-here we go. I noted but will say again. I love the small dark chocolate PB cups. Their frozen chocolate croissants are pretty tasty too. Share your favorites!

    Your state’s 24 hours in a day in the life of a Scout adventure

    Tell us your state and which Scout model and what a full day adventure in the new Scout would look like. Who knows-maybe this will inspire others to expand the Scout community. Maybe it’s 12 or 16 hours but what is your ideal adventure day in your state look like. Favorite breakfast joint to...

    Puddle light projection design

    If SM does offer puddle/approach lights what should the projection design be. A general soft light glow? A red glow, the Scout logo? If you’ve got ideas throw them out. Maybe somebody has the ideal Easter egg? I like “go further” or “connect”

    Sunglass holder

    I didn’t see this at reveal but will there be any designated sunglasses holder/storage area within the vehicles. As someone who has prescription glasses and sunglasses it’s nice to have a convenient area. Maybe a vertical “pocket” in the center console to keep them in place and safe?

    Windshield stickers

    Early on for the Bronco6g forum there were comments made that stuck with me. Having owned a Bronco briefly I personally experienced it as well. Knowing the windshields are very upright and prone to chips and cracks, can manufacturer stickers be put on the side windows? Everyone loved the made...

    50 state vehicle

    I think since Scott Keogh has labeled the Scouts as 50 states vehicles there should be an amazing vlog series done showing the scouts in all 50 states AND since Scouts are an 8 day a week vehicle the Scouts should spend a week in each state AND since they were originally touted as being a farm...

    Handling

    So watching the new Scott Keogh interview he mentions that 90% of vehicle will be the same. But once you pull 50-60% of battery out and then mount an engine how is handling affected? Will the weight balance be the same? Will they adjust computer dynamics to offset a weight change? And...

    Carpet floor mats

    Watching a YouTube video on the new Rivian R2. I know some don’t want carpet and I’m sure other do (I like both so I can swap depending on season). Needless to say I love the new carpet mats in the vehicle. Stylish and simple plaid. I like the rubber mats shown in the Scout prototypes but...

    New stories

    Just figured I’d throw this thread up to alert when SM posts new articles under the Story tab. When you see a new one feel free to post. Anyway-two great new stories are up as well as the Terra breakdown that was posted 1/17. Enjoy! @Jamie@ScoutMotors thanks for the continued great work. Love...
