What’s your hobby

  • 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.

So some of us draw and someone on here does the laser cut wood cars on flags but if you have a hobby take a minute and share it. Maybe you make bird houses or make electronic collages of your favorite 80’s tv personalities or you bake @special” brownies or do taxidermy with rabbits and squirrels. If the scouts will enhance your hobby tell us why and show off your work. Maybe Scout will be so impressed by someone they decide to write an article about it. Or maybe the y can vote on their favorite 3 and send a little “somethin” -“somethin” your way.

I make polymer clay sculptures. These are done with different colored clays, not paint (and yes, one of those light-bulb heads was the turn signal from my car). I mostly stopped when my lab burned down a few years ago but hope to start again if things ever calm down again.

I would love to say fishing, hunting, and kayaking - but my actual hobby is more like spending time on the internet reading about those things. Once upon a time I fished about every other weekend 4 months out of the year, and kayaked multiple times per week (2x per week year round, and every other weekend about 5 months a year).

I did drag my kayak to the coast 6 times in the last 6 weeks (after a year of gathering dust) - and came home 2 of those without getting my kayak wet. My only accomplishment on the other 2 trips was finding 2 new places to launch and explore-neither of which I found on the countless hours of internet research.
 
Large format photography and woodworking. During my working years i collected a lot of stuff for a well equipped darkroom (I have everything but the dark), intending to dive headlong into it after retirement. I continued working after retirement and it’s just not going to happen now. During ‘The Lockdown’ i got interested in woodworking and so now have a few tools and am slowly getting into it.
 
I don't know if I have what I would call many hobbies, cars have always been a big hobby of mine, maybe less so as I get older. I've taken up pickleball with my wife which is fun, and our other main hobby if you can call it that it is traveling. The Scout will definitely fit in nicely for that as we love doing road trips and will be nice to have all the space in that when we go. I'm hoping to do all 50 states by the time I'm 40. I'm currently 37 and I'm currently at 39 states.
 
I play golf regularly and I’m an amateur photographer.

The Scout will serve you well.

Sounds familiar, I spent multiple times a week fishing pre kids now its a few times a year. Exploring aimlessly was always fun cause you found stuff nobody was talking about online. Going EV will save me the gas money it would cost me on my 12mpg truck now lol

Might have trouble driving to Hawaii though :)
Thankfully I already have Hawaii and Alaska ticked off my list. I basically need to drive on the edge of ND/SC and go into MN and then drive straight down to LA (dipping into OK on the way down), turn right to go through MS and AL and then come straight back up towards home in PA and I'll be done!

So something like this? :ROFLMAO: Kidding aside sounds like some great roadtrips you have had and still have to come. Hopefully in a Terra or Traveler!

I guess my hobby is riding my motorcycle - I used to work on cars all of my spare time... Buying, fixing, selling... Then they just got too technical for me. We moved to the river so now I'm trying to learn how to fish (or should I say catch)!
i grew up fishing every weekend pre teen and younger teen years and I NEVER bought the story about bad day fishing better than work. Now, like others-I wish I had time to fish because just wading in the water casting is WAY better than work 🤣
