Trying to understand size, especially interior.

  • 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 am coming from an F150 but have recently owned GMC Sierras as well. I'm a big guy and love the size of a full size truck, especially the rear seats leg room of the F150. I get that the Terra is going to be smaller, but trying to understand how much smaller...? Their website has some dimensions, but exterior. The width feels very similar to the F150 but the Terra seems to flare a bit where the F150 is pretty flat. Is this truck firmly in the midsize space or somewhere between midsize and full size?

They’ll be in Denver last weekend in May.

Majority of the dimensions are within an inch or two of a F-150.
 
I would plan on an F-150 with a few minor differences. Especially with the bench seat. It’s a big truck.
What’s unusual is the photos and first glances make it look smaller than it really is. In person it’s a BIG truck. It’s not a 2500 dually or oversized tow-er but it’s more than capable as a work truck
 
I drive a 4 door Tacoma. How does the terra compare?
Welcome to the community. There’s 2-1/2 years of info on here and the search is very helpful.

A great follow is @Jamie@ScoutMotors He keep us updated on things from the SM side.

I have reserved a Traveler so I’m not as versed in the Terra.

The concepts will be at IHS Nationals in Springfield, Ohio June 13th to the 15th if you are so inclined to take a summer vacation to Ohio to see them.

Welcome again!
 
The flat floor (no transmission hump or driveshaft) will definitely help it feel a little roomier too!
Yeah, the Lighting (and I believe all modern F-150s) have flat floors in both the front and rear cabins. The Lighting does have a console, shifter, etc., in the space where the transmission hump would be. The rear of the crew cab is just cavernous, especially with the seats flipped up. If the doors opened to 90 degrees, I could fit my massive ICECO VL60 litre fridge in the rear.
