  • 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.

    Switching Harvester to All EV Model?

    Currently, I own a hybrid that provides 400 miles of range and a BEV that gives 300 miles (when it is warm). I have a similar dilemma, @dreamweaver . So, I am taking the same approach as you and waiting on final specs before considering a switch.

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

    The New Hampshire House just voted to eliminate annual car inspections. The bill now goes to the Senate. I could not find very much info, but from the news report it seems like the officials were pushing for reform and resorted to this to "force the issue." I hope this gets resolved and they...

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

    Okay, that's new... Just for fun I put my home town and "Springfield Ohio" into Google Maps to see how long it would take to get there. I knew it would be too long, but why not check, right? Two different times came up: 13 hours and 4 hours. The 4 hours was for a flight. :oops: When did Google...

    Scout Traveler and Terra Photo Collections and Wallpapers

    Jamie, any chance we could get some 3-views (I think they are called 3-views) of the Traveler and Terra? I'm talking about images like the drawings in this picture:

    Lego Kit

    As Batman said in The Lego Movie: "I only work in black. And sometimes, very, very dark grey." ;)

    Lego Kit

    I don't know, do you really think people would be interested in a Scout Lego kit? ? BTW - that's sarcasm. You can see a few pieces of my Lego vehicle collection below. I probably will not even wait for an official Lego kit of the Scouts - I'll design and build one myself.

    12v Battery: Not an afterthought

    This is an excellent suggestion, Logan. I expect that the Scout engineers already considered this, but it doesn't hurt to raise the concern. The promise of "80% of the vehicle will be user serviceable" will not mean much if the 12V battery is not included in the 80%. My Hyundai Ionic 5 BEV has...

    Scout concepts on Jay Leno’s Garage

    For me, I hope that the maximum tow rating for the EREV doesn't increase over 5000lbs. I need to tow, but I don't need to tow that much weight. I would rather have the EREV (and the pure EV versions) be designed as a capable/comfortable driver with medium towing capability and lower cost. I...

    Accessories Poll For Scouts

    It is not really practical to make the Scout (or any vehicle without integrated solar) "solar ready". The main issues are: No standard plugs for the solar panels. Need for a integrated charge controller to protect the vehicle. The solar industry is started to converge on a standard plug for...

    Accessories Poll For Scouts

    The only thing currently on the list that I want is the Assignable Accessory Switches Inside Vehicle. Honestly, I think everyone else would be better at providing suggestions. I don't go off-roading and don't plan to start, so most of the items on the list don't appeal to me. But there are...

    The gas tank needs to be bigger on the Harvester models

    The interview videos of the reveal last month indicated that they will have (at least) three EREV driving modes for the Harvester. One of those modes is "max" which is designed for towing, so the Harvester will have a EREV mode like the Ramcharger.

    Scout should publish info about EREV driving modes

    I just saw an article that talks about the drive modes of the Ramcharger (Electric+, E-Save and Eco) with a brief description of how two of the three work. While I realize that the Scout Harvester hasn't been finalized, I think it would be helpful to have them provide similar info for the three...

    Molle Panels or Storage Tie Point in the Sides/Top of the Frunk

    One of things mentioned in the reservation page is that you can change your order when they open up orders to reservation holders. So if you put a reservation on a Terra and decide (before ordering) you want the Traveler instead, you can use the Terra reservation to order a Traveler. So if you...

    Audio System Brand Poll 2.0

    I am not an audio person, so I would prefer a mid-range system with just "good" sound. I have never upgraded the sound system in any of my vehicles (not even the optional stuff offered by the manufacturer) and likely never will. I guess that puts me in the 95% that J Alynn talks about. But I...

    Molle Panels or Storage Tie Point in the Sides/Top of the Frunk

    I would suggest the Scout design just include attachment points in the back, floor and top of the frunk. Then encourage third-party/aftermarket accessory makers to provide mounts. That will result in much wider array of mounting options so buyers can get the "system" they prefer. As for the...

    Are factory deliveries for reservation holders being considered?

    I would absolutely head to South Carolina to pick up my Terra from the factory, if it really is an option. The trip for me would be 930 miles one-way, according to Google Maps. So I would likely fly in and drive home. According to Google, the closest commercial airport to Blythewood, SC is...
