it feels like it should have giant googly eyes on the top to me - I love it!
What's it like to take a road trip in a truck like the Terra (F-150 Lightning)?

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.
That would be so cool! Or one massive eye on top instead of 2 eyes to bring back that old gas station vibe similar to the Texaco Gas Pumps from the 50s with the rotation top.
Tokheim 39 Texaco Gas Pump
The original Tokheim Model 39 was popular in the late 1940’s into the 1950’s. Illuminated globe assembly and interior lighting give a nice back-light for the computer face, 110 Volt. Made in the U.S.A Freight shipping will be figured and charged accordingly

Now i found my first Scout project in 2027. Im gonna find one of these near me and I'm gonna convert it into a NACS charger using my Scouts Home Charger. That way every time someone comes over my Scout will look like its being filled with gas. Lol
I am nerding out about the Ionna Rechargery Stations. I think they are really cool.
Its probably the coolest chargers America has seen. And if I remember correctly, they use the same systems that are used by Porsche, Audi in Europe.
The only thing is, with making these is that gas stations have to be dormant until the soil is clear of any gas before they can start to build on them. Is what I remember, i could be wrong. @nolen whats the rough estimate of time the site has to be dormant? Obviously it varies between each gas station.
If tanks are pumped dry and they can remove tanks without damage or backfill them and cap it it usually isn’t that long.
unfortunately I'm in air testing, not soil so I don't know their regulations. Ask me questions about emissions from factory stacks or landfills and I'll be much more helpful (and boring...)
(edit - I am not in mobile sources so I don't do the cars - it's not my fault!)
The reuse of such properties and the regulations around reuse is state specific. Generally speaking though if there are records that the tanks have been removed or abandoned in place, the property can be resold although it may have a restriction on the type of reuse, such as commercial/industrial use only. Most states have an underground storage tank (UST) program that tracks this information and conducts checks on active facilities.
It is up to the purchaser to conduct a phase 1 and potentially a phase 2 site investigation to ensure they understand the liability that may come with purchasing a property that may have historically operated as a gas station/auto shop.
