Terra - Roof Top Option

  • 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’m still debating between sunroof and solid roof for similar reasons. I think I’m just going to wait until release and see how they both look and make sure I can have the same options with and without the sunroof and make my mind up then. I also need to figure out if I’m keeping this for a long time as if I was going to change to another Scout after say 5 years I’d be less bothered about anything happening with the sunroof compared to keeping it 15+ years for example.
 
I am still praying I can opt for a solid roof with all the offroad fixin's


The glass roof is really beautiful in the photos though.


Maybe some of yall can convince me to get that over the solid roof.

My daily driver has a sunroof (that still works flawlessly) thats over 20 years old.

My main concern is weather, and this thing has survived quiet a few hail storms.

But I am not a really smart dude.

SO, can some of you nerds help me out?

Would a smaller sunroof be stronger than a full glass roof?

In my mind a smaller piece of glass is harder to break, but would the larger one help spread out the energy of an impact and be stronger?
this is what the roof of my car looks like- the small one opens and the big one doesn't. I've been through some nasty hailstorms and it made it through ok (the sound was terrifying though, I'll be honest)
