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.
Of course, you must have the standards: Black, White, Red, Blue, etc. but please include some really unique colors like Jeep and Ford are doing. I love the sage green-like color available for the Bronco and the Wrangler. Cool light primary colors are also neat as well as rich solid colors like battleship gray, milk chocolate, caramel, a buttercup yellow, etc.
I suggest color schemes that give a shout out to well-known Americana. A nice creamy gray in recognition of the Navy, an Army green, a sage/mint green in honor of the US Forest Service, a deep school bus yellow because it looks good with black accents.
Those are my votes. When I look at the choices in the poll, I say, "YAWN!"

I won't buy anything on the grayscale. I will make an exception for a white Patriot/Spirit edition with lots of red&blue.
I want actual colors. Green is my favorite but green is tricky. It can pretty easily go from I love it to I hate it. My favorite green out there is the metallic British racing green on Mini Coopers. That color with the Traveler interior shown - chef's kiss. I don't like army/olive greens at all - just mix blue and yellow, no red.
I could also go for a metallic/pearlescent sky/bright blue with the interior on the Terra.
Purple could be interesting.
No matter what, don't make the colors so dark I confuse it for black. Some people seem to love Anti-matter blue on Bronco but to me, it's just black 95% of the time. There's one in my neighborhood that my wife thought was black for over a year until it came up in a conversation when I mentioned the blue Bronco down the street and she didn't know what I was talking about. I've seen many greens that are the same way.

Some brutal choices there. Please think EARTH TONES.
We need more pastel options. Think Land Rover greens and Brittany blue. I think a lot of the color examples look like toys and need a more vintage feel. Also a Sahara/beige would be a nice option.
Like most of the options but what about an OD Green, Mint, a Sand/Khaki, Root Beer Brown, Old Gold, Sharkskin, or Maroon?

Having seen it in person I’d call it spiced pumpkin. It’s literally a perfect blend of bothAre we calling the preview Traveler color as Copper or Orange? I want that, 10/10.
Since the plant for the new Scout is in SC, how about "yam" or to reference their BBQ sauce, "mustard'.....
I would love like a matt brown color. The cooper is a beautiful color if can't get
a matt, flat brown color.
a matt, flat brown color.
How about a bi-colored vehicle with a pinstripe separating the two, a look back to the 70s if you will.
It would indeed be amusing to name some paint options based on the BBQ sauce types common in South Carolina.
South Carolina's Four Barbecue Sauces
Known as the Birthplace of Barbecue, South Carolina is also the only state in the nation where you’ll find all four of the basic types of barbecue sauce: mustard, vinegar and pepper, light tomato and heavy tomato.
Someone on the Bronco Sport subreddit posted this and I thought it was such a cool idea

I would not want this as a standard paint scheme. Reminds me of 90's ford f150 paint jobs.
Tons of shades, and shades may make the difference from person to person. IIRC, the vehicles I have owned so far are Black (3), gray (2 - but it is never a favorite color of mine), Red (2), Maroon (2), very dark green (2), orange (1). Wanted OD green, but have never gotten one. Had to drive 2k miles to get the orange-it tends to be a fairly rare color. One of the dark greens was a custom paint job.
