Guess who drives an IH Scout II? Tim Walz

  • 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.
Interesting comparison I just read. I just clipped the ironic portion of the article-sorry no link.

Is it nice seeing him driving a scout yes. Even though he’ll take these beautiful gas guzzlers away from all of us because of Kamala's green new deal crap.

its not gonna stop me from voting for the guy who's been shot at? NOPE. Im still voting red in November!

Opinions are great on the forum but let’s all keep politics out of here so everyone can enjoy their experiences about Scouts rather than bickering over politics. Everyone wins that way 😀
 
There was a time (not that long ago - and I was born in 1969) when it didn't seem to matter much what your personal politics were - you could literally respect and get along with anyone, no matter which way you (or they) were leaning, and you could find commonalities (like your car or truck, or fishing, or sports for example) that you shared. In fact politics never seemed to come into the discussion - unless you watched the evening news. That was when the Republican party was represented by more than 1 person, and when inanimate objects weren't politicized, and when everything wasn't polarized. It was a better time for our country. So, I say carry on to all the old and new Scout drivers out there.

I have Democrat, Republican and Independent-type friends that share a lot of the same interests as me - even if their personal political leanings are more socially conservative or more fiscally progressive, or vice versa. We all respect each other for who we are. Life would be quite boring if we were all the same - we've seen the dangers of that play out on the global stage. We don't need that anywhere, and we probably don't need to put any labels on a new truck being launched by Scout either. Scout seems to intentionally want to cater to anyone and everyone interested in their vision and mission, and if you are selling a truck like Scout is, you seek truck buyers - no matter which way they put on their socks or buckle their belt.

You can easily make the case that buying a new Scout will be your most patriotic truck purchase ever. That was how I felt when I purchased my American-made R1T and charged it with Solar from my own roof top. Being a patriot and wanting to support independence and freedom are concepts that are neither Democrat nor Republican - they are American. Listen to the teaser video and you will hear that the new Scout is not about splitting people apart - sounds more like the messaging is about bringing people together. This starts with humility, respect and an intelligence about where we come from, how our country was founded, and the ideals that our founders were striving for. Here's to the land of the free, the home of the brave and wherever this new Scout will take us. i don't care who is driving, as long as we have mutual respect.

Well said. I wish others could be as advanced in thought.

Polarized and all or nothing thinking can be a cognitive distortion. Life is not always as simple as black and white. At times, life needs the converging views of grey thought.
