Whhhaaaaaaaatt - you don’t trust a German source reporting on an American company because someone said something that can’t be corroborated. So much for “Faith and Patience!”

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.
Yes, let's talk about the PBY Catalina, one of the coolest planes of world war II
Latest news says production to start late 2027. So hopefully some cars out in 2027 and likely most the beginning 2 quarters of 2028
That’s the way I read it, but I do agree with @SpaceEVDriver and his post above.
They will have to crawl before they can walk before they can jog before they can run. They are going to start off slow and ramp up production over time. It’s a brand new factory with a brand new vehicle. They aren’t going to start out at full speed right out of the gate.
Faith and patience.
Wasn’t Der Spiegel known some time ago for just kind of making stuff up? They’ve supposedly cleaned up their act, but if the official word is this isn’t the case, it hurts their credibility more to have a company rep say that they’re not currently facing delays.
I’m also reading that they apparently have been know to take a biased view of the US in that they don’t particularly like the US. Make of that what you will.
Uh, how about that Airbus A320, uh I don’t know anything about planes (I’ll cop to being a weirdo who will always stick around for documentaries about plane crashes, though).

Production target by end of 2027 - consistent messaging from Scout. We (ROMR) always expected that to mean deliveries to consumers in early '28
I’m still going off the website. And it says “ Initial production targeted to start in 2027 based on current projections, and is subject to change. The anticipated production date is an estimate and may be affected by various factors. Actual availability may differ.”
F-150 Lightning with 200,000 miles in 3.5 years.
No degradation, no loss of range, no malfunctions.
The owner charges to 100% every day because it’s a standard range and they need the range. They drive 200-300 miles/day, 6 days a week.

First of all they are spending their whole life in the car! Second, wow that’s amazing!
As per real information from Scout that is still the plan.
Jimbo Farley had his big reveal of the Universal Platform for Ford.
Not providing links because why do that. Lets just chat about it.

I posted a Car and Driver article earlier:
Ford's New 2028 Electric Truck Will Be a Fully Modern EV for $30,000

Lets see how Ford using megacasting affects insurance. It seems like they're putting a lot of effort into this.
Ford's New Mid-Size Truck Will Be a Fully Modern EV That'll Cost $30K When It Goes on Sale in 2027
After a string of EVs adapted from other projects, Detroit’s second-largest maker has finally started with a clean sheet of paper.

Oh no, we are all stuck on PeanutButterYellow. Besides, my preference will be MYG—Metallic Yellow-Gold.
The engineers behind the platform are a mix of ex Tesla and F1 engineers
I suspect cheap to buy and bankrupting to repair. Sounds like monocoque and mega casting. Will be 5 pieces and a fender bender will cost $22 grand to fix
