  • 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.

    I’m not a coffee drinker, but I’m told their plain coffee is only so so, but in terms of sugar, they make Starbucks look like plain old coffee like we had 50 years ago. In my experience, their servers are extremely pleasant, the have about a zillion flavor combinations that can be had in the...

    We ran into/over things (and pets and people :confused:). The camera makes visible things you just can’t see from the driver seat, no matter how you turn your head and body.

    For the moment, yes, but my personal decision does basically nothing to improve my air quality or slow down climate change or reduce subsidies to fossil fuel combustion . Good policy at the state and federal level does. There are a lot of things that affect my quality of life that are...

    Jeep Recon

    “the Recon doesn’t look like a fun, free-wheeling Pixar prop vehicle the way a Wrangler does with its doors off. It looks like a second-gen Jeep Liberty that’s been harvested for parts at a junkyard.”

    Walkabout Mode (Safety Feature)

    I believe Apple tags work by periodically connecting to nearby Apple devices via Bluetooth, ie there’s no gps on the AirTag, the position comes from the devices that detect the ping, so probably not useful for wilderness trekking.

    5klbs towing cap with gas range extender?

    Another good reason to swap the charge port location with the harvester gas cap location.

    Thing is, at a gas station, you’re not sitting in your car for half an hour or more, and in all those situations you could just turn your car and drive (even at the gas station, don’t ask me how I know). There’s a different vulnerability when you’re charging. You can’t drive your car away...

    The reveal of the Scout Traveler SUV and Scout Terra truck concepts ushers in a new Scout era - Official Press Release and Photos

    Well, kinda. Technically, the harvester has a smaller battery, more like 150 miles from just battery, with up to 350 more from the gas generator. The drivetrain is pure electric, but still functionally a phev. Hybrid is a broad term covering lots of different ways of combining batteries and gas.

    Extra, Extra....Read All About It!

    Well, the headline may be a little misleading. The article seems to indicate that it was a testing/trial run, and they’re using what they learned for the next revision. I’m skeptical too, but one of these days they might be useful for the boring/tedious/dangerous stuff.
