Scout Dimensions Updated On Our Website

  • 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.
New home will have 9’ x 18’ garage door, this was not in anticipation of Scout Traveler, but glad we did so.

120” wheelbase is quite lovely for daily driving and overland travel. 10” wider than 1980 Scout… not out of keeping with modern day SUVs, like Defender, at 79.1” or Expedition at 79.9”.

I guess an eventual SWB might come in between 90 - 100”.
You were wise on the garage doors. We built 9 years ago and I have pair of 10’w x 8’ h so very lucky as well

Thank you so much much for the clarification on the dimensions. I placed my reservation day 1 and almost cancelled it when I saw the initial dimensions. So glad I waited and kept my reservation! As for the tire carrier on the back, I personally love it. As a Wrangler owner I am used to swinging that tire on the gate open and with a spacious frunk that can be utilized for storage I don't personally see it as an issue. I have measured my garage and with the length I have 20 inches to spare!
