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.
Yep. Just wanted to share some concrete numbers regarding the scope of the impact, which is not massive, but also not nothing. Virtually no human endeavor at this scale can have absolutely no impact to the local ecology, so all we can hope is to offset the impact by protecting/preserving other areas to achieve a net balance to the broader ecology.
Those are likely retention ponds for storm water runoff. They are designed to help prevent the wrong things from entering the natural wetlands and streams as well as flood mitigation.
Another reason to dislike dealers...
Why some EV buyers are getting their tax returns rejected this year
"...As Meier was finalizing the purchase of her new car, she told the finance rep that the dealership would have to report the sale to the IRS and send her paperwork confirming it. The IRS instructions emphasized that to get the tax credit, she'd need a "seller report" — and the dealership sent her a document with those words on the top.
But a few weeks ago, when Meier tried to claim the EV tax credit, the IRS rejected her return.
The IRS created a new online portal for the 2024 tax year. Dealers had to enroll in the new system to accommodate customers who wanted to claim the rebate up front. But crucially, dealers also had to use the portal to report sales for buyers who planned to claim the credit at tax time — that is, dealers couldn't use the same forms they'd used prior to 2024.
The Treasury Department and the IRS, working with the National Automobile Dealers Association and state dealer associations, did repeated rounds of outreach to spread the word about the changes.
Not all dealerships signed up for the new system
By last September, over 14,000 car dealers were registered to report sales to the IRS using the new portal. That's most of the dealers in the U.S.; last year, there were just under 17,000 franchised car dealers nationwide, according to the dealers' trade group.
But that still left some 3,000 dealers that weren't in the system — including the Santa Fe, N.M., dealer where Meier bought her vehicle..."

Given the current EV battery technology in use today, I harbor a concern about V2X that the repetitive cycling of charging and discharging will only exacerbate battery degradation.
