  • 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.

    Scout Concepts going to IH Scout & Truck Nationals June 13-15, Springfield, Ohio

    Start a new thread, please. I would suggest everyone else that is attending and taking pictures do the same. I'm sure there will be a lot of questions and compliments - having new threads will make forum/thread navigation easier for those of us that can't attend in person.

    Harvester + V2H Support?

    The EREV (Extended Range Electric Vehicle, aka Scout Harvester) will still have traction batteries and full electric capabilities. Scout has quoted ~150 of total EV range in the EREV versions. So, it will have the same power supply capability that the BEV would. If the industry standardizes on a...

    E Axle Brand Poll

    I just voted as well, so now AAM is tied with Dana. Let's hope someone doesn't think voting against AAM after the latest news will change Scout Motor's choice! :D

    Flat Tow capability to beat Jeep

    Hey @dreamweaver , why the bland reply here? Your reply in the other flat-towing thread was super helpful. :p BTW - I realize this answer in the other thread was more recent. I just thought it would be more fun to be snarky.

    Bench Seat vs Standard

    I am definitely getting bucket seats with a center console. I have owned a pickup with the bench seat and fold down console (200x Dodge Ram Quad-cab) and I only tilted the console up to use the bench seat twice in 7 years of ownership. I prefer the bucket seats with a center console. It is not...

    Charging while driving…Wild, irresponsible speculation...

    Well then, double shame on you! :p :LOL::LOL::LOL:

    Center Headrest

    Maybe they can make it adjustable? Current headrests can be adjusted up-and-down for different driver heights, maybe there is a way to make the center headrest even more-so. When there is no passenger in the center of the seat, the headrest can be pushed down so it is level with the seat. That...

    Easter eggs

    All the Scout versions will have the same frunk, right? How about if there is a plastic panel for the inside of the hood of the frunk that has an International Harvester Logo, or some other significant image like the outline of SC with a star where the Scout plant is? It would be visible when...

    Charging while driving…Wild, irresponsible speculation...

    That is way too reasonable for this thread. :p Remember, the OP said "wildly irresponsible ideas for EVs." You can't just go and hijack a thread like this with a suggestion like park-and-charge. We need ideas on how to take advantage of connecting power from the trailer to the truck when it is...

    Charging while driving…Wild, irresponsible speculation...

    I love the idea of plugging in a range extending trailer. If there were a standard plug of some kind that allowed you to hook a trailer to the truck so they could share power while towing (and while not towing), I can see a lot of after market equipment that would take advantage of it. If set up...

    Scout Traveler SUV Green Off-Road Concept

    I like the new bumpers, mainly because it looks like they are made up of separate pieces. It looks like if a part gets damaged you can replace just that part instead of the whole bumper. I also like that the recovery hooks are less integrated, I think they look better not being integrated with...

    Scout Blanket in the Scout Merchandise Store

    If Scout Motors offers an official version, of course I'll buy another one! I have plenty of uses for a nice blanket.

    Scout Blanket in the Scout Merchandise Store

    The Scout Supply Store was moving a little too slow for my taste, so I did it myself.

    Tariffs are coming and EV Tax Credit is Going Away

    The Scout Home page says this: "Entry models starting as low as $50,000 with available incentives. Retail prices starting under $60,000." I assume that means the "under $60,000" price does not include incentives. But, I am pretty sure that the batteries were coming from Canada. With a new 25%...

    Poll- What have you Reserved... Let's get a small idea of the take rates.

    With a 114 mile round trip commute, an EV would be an ideal vehicle if you can level-2 charge at home or work. You did not mention if you had charging available, so I thought I would raise this as a potential issue. My level-1 charger at home will only add about 50 miles of range overnight to my...
