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.
A couple years ago I got a 2kWh Anker backup battery system for when the power goes out, maybe some camping, etc. I could basically run my home fridge, wifi, some lights on that thing for basically a day and a half if we were smart about usage. Again, that's 2kWh, now imagine an F150 Lightning Extended Range with 131kWh usable battery. Assuming she stays local to her town of Parker, CO, she could tow to her parking spot, power the trailer all day, and get back home with probably more than half the battery left.
Ultimately this goes back to why I really want all Scouts to have a 240V outlet w/ bidirectional charging. Why spend four or five figures on a backup generator system when you have all the energy you need parked right there in your driveway? Power goes out, hook Scout up to house, turn on Generator mode, keep going....or on a more serious note you could use that capability to support your community during a natural disaster.
I can’t believe I’m saying this but I kinda like it. Way more than I thought when I read the headline. But very fun shy to ever buy a Bronco again. But this is really appealing. They should introduce it here. But guess it would compete with the Explorers so not a great business plan

When’s the CMF team video coming out? I saw what I think is a teaser on the insta.
Also how’s the commercial coming along?

Should DMC Have Produced This Kei-Challenging Pickup Truck Before The DeLorean?
There is reasonable evidence to suggest that John DeLorean's baby truck would've been a much bigger commercial success than the sports car flop.

I still don’t think I could get in a car with no one in the drivers seat.
