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.
Not so much of a game changer - but something everyone has already come to expect. I guess my 12 year old minivan was the first one in my family to have one, then my VW, then my F250. Hell I even put one on my LJ so it would not feel left out.
FWIW, while the 360 view in the Ford is nice, the VW stows when not in use so the lens is always clean-that is kind of a game changer. The Rubicon attempts to wash its, but it is never as clear as the VW's always is.

I think you may be confusing a backup camera with the rear view mirror camera. Which are relatively new to the automotive scene. But absolutely yes to the backup camera too! Those are government mandated.
Digital Rear View Mirror, the current Jeep GC does it so i would expect to see it here as well.
Someone else mentioned this would be helpful, especially with the 35" tires taking up some of the rear view.
I know we were both there. I couldn’t see any camera lenses or bubbles on back of Traveller. Did you notice any? Wondering with optional swinging spare carrier where the camera(s) will go?
No. Neither Traveler or Terra had those cameras yet. I looked for them. Sure it's part of the fact they were 90% complete. I think that tire carrier helps place a camera where it needs to be so the tire itself is out of view. The one issue with that might be that it is positioned too far out and would not allow the receiver hitch in the camera view. This is an important tool these days when backing up to trailers to get them hooked up.
I second this, I can't imagine that rear cameras won't be standard based on the level of tech already incorporated.
Agree. Just wondering with carrier option if it moves to carrier (than hitch view is tough per @Harris005 ) or maybe it is low to avoid. Almost has to be low otherwise it’s on tailgate and if you’re hauling lumber and have gate down you’d be blind as far as camera goes
I agree with this post. I would love to have a rear view in mirror camera. I hope that they would implement this.
