  • 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.

    Towing a Off-Road Trailer with the Terra

    Not to beat a dead horse here but I would like to mention some of the reasons off-road trailers cost so much more then Elkhart built 20-30 k trailers. Starts at the foundation the chassis and suspension. Huge difference here. I consulted with a chassis manufacturer in Elkhart for years, mass...

    Towing a Off-Road Trailer with the Terra

    Hopefully those rigs you see are at the camp ground to re charge and move on to dispersed off road sites. That's the only time I would go to camp ground. You do make a valid point however sometimes rough highways are harder then off road trails do to the speed most folks drive.

    Towing a Off-Road Trailer with the Terra

    I disagree with hozer non purpose built campers will not hold up for off-road use bar none. This camper is cool. Tear drops dont work for me personally. I would compare this with the Kimberley Kube. Maybe contact both companies and see who will actually pass the exchange rate savings to the...

    Off Road Performance

    So i have been thinking about this subject lately. I have been keeping an eye on the 2026 Chevy Silverado EV Trailboss for a while. Considering selling my 2023 Lexus GX 460 for the trailer boss until my Terra gets delivered. GX at 9mpg pulling my off-road trailer is wearing on me. Not impressed...

    The One-Ton Problem with Scout’s Harvester Range Extender

    My prediction based on no scientific knowledge what so ever is SM will get up to 7,000 pound towing capacity on the Terra Harvester model.

    The One-Ton Problem with Scout’s Harvester Range Extender

    The One-Ton Problem with Scout’s Harvester Range Extender

    Great that your posting now. Assuming you are going to be looking to pull a 30 + foot trailer that will liklely be pushing 5 tons with liklely in the 1,000-1,200 pound tongue weight you will need a 3/4 ton truck payload capacity. I hate to be negative Nelly here but I just dont feel like any BEV...

    I do not believe the Trailboss at 88k has air suspension which is expensive. Keep in mind that Chevy is having a lot of issues with the batteries and other aspects in the 2024 /2025 models. I need to get more informed on the batteries that Scout is planning for the total ev models. Just really...

    Great information as the Chevy Silverado EV Trailboss max range has my eye right now. It is freaking heavy and expensive (88k) but range could be around 460 miles. Plus seing lots of issues with 2024/2025 models. So by 2028 I will look at Scout Terra Total EV , Rivian and Chevy Trailboss with...

    My niece just had a baby and named her Scout! Kind of cool. Should we plan getting her a 2041 Traveler? Or would that be to enabling? She was born in Detroit so there is another connection. Her dad is a famous mural artist. Maybe Jamie could commission him to do a big mural of the old scout...

    They dropped two and the joy these guys have riding thier bikes together is infectious. I see them and think maybe they are to old to handle this trip then I Google thier ages and Ewan is ten years younger then I am. His wife is adorable and from Utah. Loved Trainspotting movie.
