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

  • 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 will note from the read I still like the idea of a special launch version only color. Still offer other standard colors but should be a unique color to launch with. And I think SM should develop (3) colors and let the forum vote to determine what the final color would be. After those 2K or whatever number is offered, the color goes away for ever.
Forever?!?! I don’t know about that.

Forever?!?! I don’t know about that.
Out of curiosity-why not? If there is a special launch version why not a special paint. Once launch vehicles are sold, theoretically you can’t ever do another launch series until maybe second generation. Still think they should offer most or all the other colors but why not a pumpkin spice or twilight lavender. Not everyone will like it and can select red, blue, etc… but a single unique color would make it a very unique opportunity for those wanting something different. Sorta sounds like that is what that Genesis is doing with the interior.

I’ve been thinking about this. I guess my concern is that there are 4 models essentially. So are we talking one launch edition with that color for only the first iteration released. Or would the next iterations get a launch edition in that color too? Like let’s say that’s someone preferred color and they are a Terra reservation holder, would they get that color as an option when the Terra launches?

Good question? I do think if done, the color should be a vote color and maybe it’s different between traveler launch and terra launch as one color may look better on traveler and not as good on terra?

And then how would orders be handled? Would it be who reserved first gets first dibs? Would it be who clicks order first? If someone made their reservation later would they have no chance to get a launch edition?
