Scout Deal Breakers

  • 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.

For me most of these are any car but I was looking at Scout to replace my Wife's current car, so want what she has now and then some:

  • No heads up display (she has that now and its a must for both of us)
  • Too much functionality in screen (have a Maverick pickup 2025, and too much has moved to screen, hating the UI more every day)
  • Tow Rating (GX 550 tows 9000 lbs we like to be around there in an SUV)
  • Range 350 for full EV is ok today but not in 2 years (We want to drive from St George Utah to Vegas alot, but sometimes CA so stopping every 2 hours is annoying)
  • Range Extender sound cool but 150 EV and hit to towing have thrown water on it for me
Those are main ones for me. Every cars has a few issues, hoping this list can get shorter by time car is in production?
 
For me it is following through, not bait and switch. 350 mile range, near intended price, 50 states vehicle. And a decent driver assist package I guess-it's not the 1970's anymore.
