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.
@Jamie@ScoutMotors if you need somebody to do some vehicle testing in Montana for Scout, I know a guy. Just saying…
LOL. No problem. We will keep it in mind.
@Jamie@ScoutMotors -Is that warm colored LEDs I see on the front. I like it better than the cool blue lights on the Reveal event photos.
Does this mean our ideas for cool and warm LED’s were heard?
So freakin’ BAD ASS. Loving the warm lighting
One more reason I LOVE the headlight design-NO ONE should confuse it for a Bronco! Silhouette may be a touch (tiny bit) off-roady-Bronco like but the lighting completely distinguishes it on the road.
yeah the more options I see, the closer I start eyeballing those older relatives...
I could really care less about price as long as its not starting at 70-100k. Ipl be specing mine up from the starting 50k to 60k.
If it’s gonna be that much then this isn’t a true Scout, they are meant to be a family vehicle and working truck, not a show car(unless for special purposes) or pavement princess. I’m staying hopeful for that 50k starting price.
I drive past the factory on Friday. The pictures and videos do not do justice to how immense the site actually is. Absolutely enormous!December Factory Update:

I think you are gonna see sticker shock. At reveal the (presumably base) models will start just under $60K. The $50K number is based on incentives (ie-tax credits) and I’m pretty sure the next year will see that disappear based on current government changes. That said, I hope you are right. My guess is the CES traveler pics are in the mid-upper $70’s. Without the satellite
The lights in roof rack is really nice tough. Take a loot at other overlanding needs/wants from Wranglers, Broncos 4 runners etc. and make them better on Scout. Also don't try to have 1 Scout for all, build a range to cover students to extreme overlanders. (i.e. people with no $$$ to people with lots) Most buyers will be in middle, but some of that end game options will pull people to Scout that will never buy those options.
Absolutely love the roof rack with integrated lighting as well, just hope it doesn’t whistle.
Agree - many/most racks add a lot of noise without a front fairing
Will we see the Scouts at the construction site? It would be so cool to see them in front on the site with the factory behind them.
Let the Terra and Traveler see where they will be made.

No, unfortunately at was sleeting and I had to keep my eyes on the road as much as possible. Taking pics would’ve been dangerous!!!
So from the Holiday video that Scout sent out to reservation holders, Scott stated that they are currently testing prototypes in Michigan. Nobody has caught them yet though. Hope we will see them soon.
My guess is that they look like how the concepts do and people aren’t paying attention to them, because they blend into the world.
