The name Kansas City Scout draws from a colorful heartland heritage that traces its roots all the way back to when Kansas City was little more than a bend in the river.
As early bands of travelers struggled to navigate the harsh prairies and unforgiving local landscape, they often would send a scout ahead as a lookout for rough terrain, bad weather, or other dangers.
Just as these early scouts helped weary travelers forge their way to new destinations, Kansas City Scout helps today's motorists navigate their way along a safer, smoother and smarter journey.
