One of my favorite videos yet glad to see you taking care of yourself and enjoying it. I dig the mellow chill Damon that still likes to have fun and skirt around

[@massbassattack4510]

Man, whenever you need a break, we will be right f ing here waiting for you... not going anywhere been watching since you started the dde channel, youve never given me myself a reason to stop watching. Dave is doing a f ing great job running the channel anyways i dont think,(speaking for everyone when i say), anybodys gonna have anything to say if you need your fam.

[@cj41079]

Dave is carrying all the weight last few uploads and doing good. Mike, the mad scientist, is a breath of fresh air always.....you got no worries, spend some time with Fam off camera.....good to see you again....

[@kevinwait852]

That's the perfect name for Mike the mad fabricator lol

[@Game_Time_Cars]

Ya family is always there just like fast and furious

[@moisescarrillo6991]

honestly can’t stand Dave recently

[@jonathanrollins7292]

@@moisescarrillo6991 they seem to think they need to act like 12 year olds to bring high energy and excitement to the vlogs. Dave isn’t usually left in charge of being behind the camera and coming up with the ideas for the videos when Damon is gone and I think his way of trying to be funny is throwing stuff around, making a mess and acting obnoxious but it can definitely come across as immature or douchy…. I bet a good amount of their viewers are younger teenagers, hence the goofiness, the theatrics like flames and burble tunes 😂 I myself prefer the more classy and educational approach like Mr.JWW has to vlogs and car taste, but DDE’s brand is “everyday is super crazy”, that and they are mostly hanging around 20 year old kids at the shop or on the meetup rides they do. Just their audience I think

[@djchristensen1]

​@@jonathanrollins7292 so why do you watch all of their videos?

[@Adrian-se1go]

Cut a pool noodle and use that as a cover for the corner of the cabinet in the Car Hauler, cheap and it works like a charm. You're welcome my man!! Lol

Take all the time you need and recharge your battery. Everyone here is a loyal fan and will be waiting for you to come back. In the meantime, Dave is doing an excellent job. You have nothing to worry about. Enjoy the fam, as we all know that’s the reason why you work so hard.

[@W1es]

Damon, you are the backbone, and foundation of this company. Like I wrote in your anniversary post, the amount of work and willpower have had to exibit. You have earned to take a time off whenever you damn well please. Dave is doing amazing carrying it, and Mike is so funny that its more than fine for us to be watching them without you for a little while from time to time. Also man, if it gets too much, Skinny can easily be a huge contribution as well and would be part whenever he could. You have a lot of kind souls around your brand, heck, Id even watch supercriminal non-billpayer Garrett for several episodes simply because I know that you surround yourself with people who appreciate fun, but arent actual idiots. I see you man, truly. Please take the time you need whenever you need it, family first, and mental health. Much love

You defo need a break for sure,with the gumball3000 around the corner

[@angrymater13la]

I would much rather you guys take time to yourselves and family to spend time and decompress. That is alot better than you guys getting burned out and just stopping the channels completely. I know you've heard it before but your content and stuff has helped me thoug alot in the way of a good distraction. How can i get ahold of you to ask you about an Inquiry?

[@trieshah]

i honestly dont even like the super super high energy things you guys do (sometimesish) so this being a calm video is so much more enjoyable for me

[@Aixalld]

Yeah I'm the same, after awhile it gets a bit too much with that high KZbinr energy, I like the stories channel as it's more calm and feels way more relatable/better connection to DDE then the main channel,

[@NaRdo_Slay27]

You guys must love Stradman 🤣🤣

[@trieshah]

@@NaRdo_Slay27 i'll watch a few but its not very enjoyable lol

DailydrivenExotics Stories Great Video I'm glad the 550XX EVO made it your house safely and that you had a great drive and I definitely understand why you haven't been on uploading on this Channel and haven't been on the main channel and I think you definitely deserve a good break before Gumball

Damon I gotta say Bro you looked pretty beat down at the beginning of the vid but after you got the car dropped off and went for a rip your smile returned and there was that sparkle in your eye again!!!! Dude coming from a guy who mentally checked out a few years ago and needed to reevaluate life YOU gotta slow her down and take time for yourself and family!!! Life is short my friend so use what time you have to spread love and happiness to all those close to you!!!! 🇨🇦❤️😎👍 Coming from a Port Alberni alumni!!!!!

[@Gyom22]

I love you guys at DDE! Best KZbin channel on the platform

[@weakattheknees_]

Really happy to see you uploading again! The DDE and DDE Stories channels have helped me massively this year with my own mental health struggles, and given me a new perspective on life. Stay strong and don’t feel guilty about taking a rest if you feel like you’re burning out 😊

[@hunterharmon4277]

Yeah man, that last few seconds says everything that needs to be said. Enjoy your break and enjoy your family Damon , the main channel is in amazing hands while you rest and enjoy life while you recoup!

[@jonathanrollins7292]

Presley was a riot at the end😂 she thought it was so funny the thought of doing something right under mom’s nose where they were at risk of getting busted! Nice to see Damon take a little time to sit back and smell the roses, and spend some quality time with the family. Presley still has that young innocence that’s fun, and you gotta enjoy it now because man do they grow up way too fast… that ride in the 550 ripping down the mountain was awesome! Such a beautiful place, and you can tell that car handles like a champ on roads like that. It honestly gave me more since and appreciation for the gated shifting, and how tactile and precise it shifts. I like these type of video’s. A little of everything, driving, family etc and there’s no acting involved . Enjoy your time off with the family, get rested up for the exciting trip to Europe for Gumball 🙌💪

[@SuperfloDee]

Had sensed a disturbance in the force in last month of episodes you could just tell something was up..hope your ok Damon..and Dave hope you going to be ok👍🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥

bro, this dropped on a day i called my sister and told her i was burned out. burning the candle at both ends trying to work / take care of mom / deal with life just too much at some times. ill say the same thing she told me. go take some time for yourself, and we will be here when you get back.

[@deanflet973]

Respect to you Damon and the rest of the DDE Crew. You sir definitely need to short mental health vacation with the family stay strong and healthy because Gumball Rally will take it out of you plus you have Dave and Mark and Mike and Tim and Eric and can't forget Skinny who definitely brings in the Laughter and Amazing Energy so you have Awesome support system and people who care about you and when you get back to Southern California then Dave definitely going need some mental health vacation can't have you guy's "Burned Out" that's for the track and street's. Have an Amazing Vacation with your loving family Damon and will probably see you on the main channel my friend.😎👍

Welcome home! Always remember your family first. I met you briefly a couple years back, outside starbucks just as i was starting Chemo. Ive since learned the importance of family and in our cases wife and kids. You always seem to have firm grasp on this and taking a break whenever you want is only proof of your commitment to whats most important. You're doing great and have great business partners and friends there to help carry the load. Hope to one day shake hands again.. All the best!

I've been following you for quite a while and haven't gotten to meet you yet, always seem to miss you...are you referring to a track day at A27 on Sept 10th?

[@Charles-kq7jh]

The 550 is one of my favorite cars on the channel. Its not the fastest, most expensive, or coolest, but its one of the most DDE. Really cool and fun car that was built out by the DDE family. Awesome job to everyone involved. And take your family time dude. We aren't going anywhere.

[@alltheboost5363]

Your gas tank has a fuel sender for the fuel level right next to the filler on the tank. You just need the right gauge and whats up with the rpms not working on the dash. That's also super easy to fix especially if you're willing to modify it.

[@michaelshaw8370]
