I'm loving the content, especially the sit-down with Eric. Its exciting to see the 2nd gen coming along. I have a 99 Dodge 2500 diesel 4x4 quad cab shortbox that I've restored. The Edison kit is something im interested in doing. I'm newly retired and bought a Northern Lite camper. That kit would be great for boondock camping in my rig.

Crimp gang! Solder has a place, it's wherever you can't crimp (like circuit boards). Crimping wires 4 lyfe.

[@saab9251]

Entire Motorsports industry crimps everything that isn’t a PCB connection. Crimps are far superior in automotive applications for terminating stranded wire.

[@gweave17]

Did think of a question while watching. Planning on doing any kind of retro kit for construction equipment? Like skid steers, farm tractors, fork lifts, dozers? Just curious.

[@ianmckay1780]

Rich, Eric and Andy. Thanks so much for your honest opinions and feedback, it makes a big difference when someone you trust, starts explaining how and why, you do what you do! Rich, some of your ideas for what you want from Edison are so inspiring. I can see why Chase has got you signed up. You really are the powerhouse you seem to be. with all your different projects in hand and aspiring to do, you must not sleep at night because you are always doing something, and there aren't enough hours in a day, for what you get done, even though you never seem to be overly stressed! Eric, thanks for all you have done for EM. You are the steady hand on the tiller, that has more than enough knowledge to keep Chase under control! I love the way you explain things, not overly complicating things, but still giving a properly informed explanation. and finally Andy. Thanks for being you! You are sometimes a complete nutter, who can see all different aspects of what is needed, yet still make people laugh because of things you do, or sometimes don't say! Three people I'd love to meet, but sadly never will, because the world is such big place, and I'm not capable of national, let alone international travel.

[@Notfilthy-ImAndy]

Thanks for the kind words Ian! Hopefully we can meet up one day!

[@chrispurdie2394]

Awesome, thanks for your honesty.

[@christopherlenahan3906]

Being able to plug-in charge is huge, especially with diesel. My boss had a Tucson and HAD to drive 150km just to burn the ethanol fuel to keep it from going stale.

[@gcurley4487]

I am sure to be looking in to this once its sorted. Currently 3x Bucket trucks. Each is currently left on site and running a pto for the lift and and powering an inverter to run corded tools/ compressor/chargers. Currently we avg $1 per km. We have 4x 12v battery backup but it chews thru batteries. Diesel / Gas is the more reliable option ATM for us but fuel costs are like $1.5k per truck per month

[@Sah-o5m]

I get encouraged when I think that Edison pickups can save fuel/noise for service trucks like a bucket truck. Can't wait to get feedback from customers like this. Hang in there.

[@recumbentkoala]

Milk! I grew up on a farm, with a milking cow (or two at times). Never lost my taste for it. I think my biggest weekly consumption was 13L about 10 years ago (so in my 50s). 2L containers of iced coffee made up 4-6L of that. The iced coffee was not sweetened, so I felt no guilt. The remainder of the milk was

Great video guys. All of you should have heads about 4 times as big to pack around all the knowledge you have, I can’t wait to see where it all ends up.

[@justinlynch6691]

If you're looking for someone to get a headstart interfacing with modern vehicle CAN and any other comms systems they have buried in there I would be happy to work on this as a side project completely for free. I'm an electrical engineer that has worked extensively designing electronics and programming embedded systems. The last 4 years I've worked in cloud software so I have the full spectrum. If you have some explanation of what you're looking for exactly, and if you could fire me some starting points and maybe a list of modules we're looking to talk to I would definitely jump on that. It's daunting to think of the time it would take to go it alone but if you could feed me the little nuggets to get started I'd be happy to. I don't need money or ownership, I'm just happy to see this thing take off.

1:37:00 there is loads on solder on airplanes... Biggest thing is to not put a splice in a bend. That goes for crimp or solder.

[@michaelanderson3771]

Just on your point of batteries in trailers and E-Axels on trailers. This is happening already in Germany and EU. Payload is reduced on those trailers however being used on volume freight where mass is less per cubic metre/ CuFt. up to 4 MT less cargo but still full 80 cubic metre trailers. Also rear-stear axels fitted on some semitrailers in EU to assist in tight country roads and city road for truck delivery. The USA and Canada are so far behind in electric heavy haul. Edison are unique and for the vocational trucking are leading the way and no doubt will be a massive game changer for North America and in some aspects Global applications where Hybrid (recharger) Electric trucking makes super sense. Australia being one region that would seriously benefit from the Hybrid over pure EV. Truck makes like Volvo, Iveco, Mercedes/ MAN and Scania are already years ahead in Electric trucking of 44 MT (96,800 lbs) plenty of recent "Electric Trucker" vids on YT in EU showing the long distance overnight and dealing with supercharging across germany - 600-800 km hauls (375- 500 mile) hauls dealing with driving hour restrictions and 4.5 hrs maximum before 45 minute rest stops and maximum of 10 hrs drive time per day.

[@cncpaul]

For the hammer wagon. Have you considered doing a rear mounted turbo? It gets the heat out of the engine bay and keeps the boost.

[@Joe-hz1nw]

Wouldn’t that cause a bunch of turbo lag? I’m a novice over here, just thinking about the basics/asking.

[@brandontodd3630]

Turbo lag would kill it.

[@mantvydas8810]

​@@Joe-hz1nwThe audi has a rear turbo setup.

[@cncpaul]

@@mantvydas8810 That's true. I forgot about that one.

[@mikeshultz1007]

Rear mounted turbos suck. Rear mount turbos have lubrication issues. With rear mounted turbos. Too much heat is lost with rear mount turbos, heat is part of what drives turbos.

[@McCanicScot420]

Lots of talk about the hybrids, plus talks of expanding sounds great.

[@FlatThunder]

Not a resident expert, but just thought about unique LLC entities for my YT Channel. It might be worthwhile if you haven't already to create a separation between Deboss and Deboss Edison entities from different LLC's. It was fun seeing your entire list of to do's. It made me feel a little less behind 🤣. Happy New Year 👍😁

[@DEBOSSGARAGE]

I am always happy to see the "done" playlists at the front of the KZbin page. We have 22 vehicles in the fleet and currently 19 of them run

[@gusracette4378]

Excellent vid, best of luck in 2025 & beyond.

[@markpalkovits6226]

I have an f350 with a dump box, with shovel, rake holders. I had a 3ft rake autorotate out of the holder and it flew vertically probable 30 ft in the air. Lots of drag!

[@Scoots1994]

The VW TDI without a DPF makes good power efficiently, the issue with using it is that Cummins sells their engine as a crate engine while VW doesn't, so there are way more risks with the VW route.

[@Erated78]

Rich you’re always true to yourself and having the awesome Aaron and Andy is just fantastic - this new Edison stage is so cool and I’m following closely with much intrigue - I have a chance to purchase a dead ‘16 F250 (egr and turbo issues) for cheap - should I buy it for a future Edition retrofit? Cheers - love you guys and thanks

[@oilburner2012]

For the Dana SD110 axle, will there be an option to purchase just the centre chunk or is a new axle the only option?

[@robtheknob7791]

Look into speed of air pistons for the engines to improve efficiency of the generator.

[@JTRtv]

Funny, my last Chevy, drove EXACTLY how rich described fords. I’ve never had that issue with any of my ford trucks.

[@These_Old_Engines]

You should make Hybrid conversions for for the nissian rogue crap boxes that had the bad CVT transmissions........

Yep.

[@jeremykindle9982]

Thank you guys.

[@bzs187]

Powered axle is a thing in Europe. I though it's the same there, but when I look at tech there, probably not.

[@Scoots1994]

I think the US 25 year import rule is to the month of manufacture of the vehicle. So a June 2000 car is still illegal in the US. Also, if a car model was ever certified for sale in the US then the 25 year rule doesn't apply. It's only for cars that were never made for the US market.

[@jameswollf7768]

[@bobearl7859]

I don't know if you see this or not but there's a DT466 in Midland Michigan for 2500 bucks needs rebuild

[@DCINC2]

Email them with specific details and contact information for the seller, subject line Dt466 core available.

[@drewr13NJ]

Originally, the Edison guys wanted to use the 3.6 CAT for the pickup kit. Is that off the table and are we only using the Cummins 2.8 now? And possibly the 3.8 Cummins if more power is needed? Originally, I thought the CAT would be preferred due to emissions regulations?

[@Sah-o5m]

I think the cat 3.6 engine was first choice but they had delays in getting them in, so they went with the 2.8 Cummins as an interim solution. I think Rich is still looking at the cat engine.

[@Sah-o5m]

Do you need 1to2 planetary between 2000 rpm engine and 4000 rpm generator to achieve rated kW output?

1:14:35 60KWh? Jeez these trucks are gonna go like 100-150miles on a charge before they need to kick on their engines wow. Won't need to pay for fuel for my daily commute. For those not familiar, the electric half tons that are out are in the 2 miles per KWH range, I assume they won't be far off that.

[@jackbarry9469]

Worth noting this heavier duty edison will not get as many miles for the same kwh. Less efficient aero + heavier.

[@Sah-o5m]

I can envision Rich having a shop like youtube Daves Auto Repair. A building with a few bays, then add bays as needed. All the tools you need. Employees working on normal trucks and Edison conversions. Rich working on his youtube projects. Walt Disney grew to a point where he said he became a bee. Just going around and pollinating all the departments to guide growth for his vision.

[@zg1972]

I really want to know how the ac and heat will work with this hybrid system. If the motor is not running all the time. How are wee going to stay warm and cool?

[@saltolamachs]

That's exactly what I was wondering. I assume they would have to add electric Ac and heat like Tesla's have. Otherwise the engine would always have to be running. But I'm guessing that's an issue to worry about after they've got the drivetrain fully figured out.

[@lavitzdagon1]

Well from what I understand all the electric motors are liquid cooled with the same coolent in the diesel engine. So they would tie that all in together for the heat. And with a/c it's similar to an apu in most semi trucks. Just ran with a smaller electric motor dedicated to just that

[@sebastiant5695]

Probably like all other EVs - you have a Electric A/C compressor which runs of the high voltage battery and a Coolant Dieselheater

[@UnyonRing]

Most likely a heat pump. Honestly that’s big plus EVs have. No need to wait for engine to warm up to get warm air.

[@sebastiant5695]

@@UnyonRing and you can run the heatpump without the engine. In my EV I start it before I get to the car - so it's already warm or cool when I get to it. Also when I have a break - can just sit in the vehicle and enjoy conditioned space. Or leave my dog in there.

Ram chargers are 1/2 ton gas with IFS and IRS. Our trucks are meant for heavier purposes

[@SammyFender]

@@DEBOSSGARAGE thanks! I figured that out after. Best of luck with your endeavors! You’ve got me excited!!

[@YourLordMobius]

Aw man. The lund visor was my question. While your explanation is logical and i completely understand it, im still heart broken lol.

Diesel in Europe is better quality than we get. That’s why they have no issues with the CP4 pump over there

[@saab9251]

That’s a myth. If you google VW or BMW cp4 failure on euro forums, you’ll see hundreds. They sell disaster prevention kits just like us. Don’t let anyone try to convince people that designing a roller cam and lifter without lifter rotation prevention is a good idea.

[@kylerthompson8286]

I like to learn as much as I can. Thanks for the info!

When are you coming back to motorama? @andy

[@Notfilthy-ImAndy]

Possibly 2026. Hopefully the opportunity will present itself again. We will be at moparfest Canada this year in new Hamburg Ontario. Keep an eye out for that official announcement.

Cat 3.3b for ranger

[@arm279145]

Listen, I’m a Chevy guy, too, but if I’ve gotten the chance to buy any vehicle from history, brand new right now, i’d probably buy a 20s Bugatti or maybe a Dusenberg. It cost like 2900 bucks and be worth millions

-38 International wheel torque?

[@winstoncryer3134]

Yeah we probably work pretty cheap too I regret to say..

[@ramdynebix]

Oh god, somebody mentioned hydrogen…

[@ChristopherWilson-io8nh]

Would you ever do a system for a Tacoma ?

[@rhodesvans]

they have built a land cruiser 76 as they had mistakenly ordered a shorter axle , so a tacoma would be very similar.
