Scott Truman

Scott Truman is the Ranger Operator Series Red, alternately referred to as Red Ranger. His operation number is one. His zord is the Eagle Racer which is a combination of a race car and an eagle. He is the confident, stubborn-headed and slightly cocky leader of the RPM team with a love of fast cars. He takes his job as leader of the Rangers seriously, and tends not to trust new recruits until they've made an effort to earn said trust. He does, however, make an effort to help keep the team together if there ever seems to be an issue.

Prior to the present day, Scott served as a pilot in the Air Force defenses during the battle for Corinth City, using the code-name Eagle 2. He was often overshadowed by his more talented and more experienced older brother, Marcus Truman, lost in the battle for Corinth, code-named Eagle 1. His father, Colonel Mason Truman, often wanted him to act as a support to his brother as he believed that Scott was not ready to handle the front lines. During the battle of Corinth, both brothers were shot down. Scott managed to eject in time and was rescued by Summer, but his brother was killed. At some point during the following year, he was chosen to be a Ranger, using technology designed by Dr. K to keep Corinth safe and stop any assaults by Venjix.

Dillon and Ziggy began associating with the team around this time, to Scott's initial disapproval, as he was at first convinced that Dillon was neither trustworthy nor capable of handling the Series Black tech. After several initial spats, Dillon proved to Scott that he could be trusted, but Scott was equally off-put by Ziggy taking the Series Green tech not long after, especially since Ziggy didn't come close to meeting any of the basic physical or skill requirements needed to become a Ranger. However, with the two additional Rangers now being necessary to stop more extravagant plans by Venjix, Scott is, at the very least, accepting of their contributions. Despite this, or perhaps in compensation for this, Scott has since developed something of a rivalry with Dillon, due to their similarly stubborn, dominating personalities and Dillon's defiant tendencies. The pair are often seen trying to outdo each other, especially when it comes to their cars. However, he seems to have grown a friendship with Ziggy, as the two are often seen together when off-duty.

After the war, Colonel Truman, finally knowing his son's worth as a leader, offers Scott the leader position of Eagle Squad. He accepts, and recruits Gem and Gemma to join him.

Scott Truman appears in a crossover special of Power Rangers Samurai by himself but only in morphed form, fearing he would not be able to breathe in the atmosphere of the Samurai Ranger's universe. Sometime during the war in Corinth, Scott followed Professor Cog into the Power Rangers Samurai dimension in order to prevent him from polluting Corinth City with the water of the Sanzu River. He saved the Samurai Rangers from Venjix robots causing the Yellow and Pink Samurai Rangers to like him while the Red, Green, and Blue Samurai Rangers are jealous of him. There he assisted the Samurai Rangers in defeating Professor Cog and the massive Mooger army led by General Gut. He also had access to the Samurai Ranger's Shark Attack Mode by putting the Power Disk onto his Nitro Sword. As Darville had joined the Screen Actors Guild since working on RPM (as part of his work on the television series Terra Nova), his voice work in the teamup was credited to the pseudonym Tobias Reiss.
