Honestly, using the game to spec out the truck was a brilliant move. And one thing you might want to think about, if you haven't already, is that ATS can be played in VR. If you take this approach, it would even allow you to get a really good feel for the cab and even location of things like mirrors and instruments, and you can do it with customers before a weld has been made.

I've been involved with Edison Motors since Topsy was being built. As someone who's worked with startups since 1995, what most people are missing is just how different their approach is from literally every company I've ever known. Chace, Eric and the team aren't in some pristine office, scoping something out on paper, in CAD or with VR. These are guys who know trucks first. They reimagined what electrifying heavy-duty vocational trucks could be, then set about just getting it done. Likewise, the engineering team aren't in some comfy, clean office. Their in the shop, they're in/around/under the truck, and they're out in the field, getting their hands dirty and their boots muddy. From the driver environment and workload, to the economics for the owner, literally every aspect of an extended range electric truck is vastly superior to that of its traditional counterparts. Beyond that, extended range electric heavy-duty vocational trucks can do so much more than any traditional counterpart could ever even imagine doing. With less than $2 million and from a tent shop with a dirt floor, these guys laser levelled a set a frame rails, then designed, fabricated and built everything on Topsy that's wasn't already a finished component or subassembly (C9, generator, batteries, e-axles, inverters, converters, etc., etc.). And they did all that in under 2 years. Having turned the wheels under her own power just 7 days before the debut at Fully Charged Live Canada in September 2023, Topsy underwent further integration work and testing. This past September, the Edison team returned to Vancouver for Everything Electric Canada 2024. Now, less than 3 months later, they've been field testing under real world conditions that no other manufacturer would ever dare. In the process they've secured orders from partners who believe in Edison Motors' vision and are fully invested in their success. This is how a company disrupts an entire industry while changing the world.

@@ysesq There are zero plans to "crunch out 50,000 trucks per year". Therefore, no need for assembly lines, automation or robotics. Thus, zero need for $500 million. In case you're not aware, heavy-duty vocational trucks are bay built. That's because everything from the frame rails up is bespoke to the customer/use case. You don't build a winch truck, a low bed, a snow plow, a drill moving rig, or any other variant one can imagine on a friggin' assembly line. So, throw all the shade you want, I've been doing this since 1995. I've seen a lot in that time and I've worked personally alongside Chace, Eric and the team. Edison Motors is on the right track. They will succeed.

Edison: working smarter and harder. Using American Truck Simulator for the basic build is genius. I’m sure Royal is going to love a heavy haul truck that can double as an onsite generator and power station. Think of the days when the truck is not hauling it can still be working. I love how the first set of trucks are not box trucks that compete with everyone else. Tridrive wench truck and snow plows, the big iron.

I know y'all might have already thought of this, but just in case- On the diesel fuel side of things, a circulation/ filtration pump might be a good idea to prevent algae growth in applications that don't run the gen set very often, and are fueled with ultra low sulfur diesel. I bring this up because when we were doing vehicle transport with a Dodge 3500, we had a 100 gallon tank in the bed, and it seemed like algae was always an issue. I rigged up a pump and filter setup that would just take it out of the tank, run it through a filter, and put it back, and running that daily seemed to take care of the problem. Adding a heating element to it probably also wouldn't be a bad idea to prevent gelling (and to make the gen set a bit easier to start)

A big YES on fuel polishing 😊 Though the same thing when I read his comments When I watch big vessels for sale video I always look for or listen to the tour guy talk about what the vessels have besides just the fuel filters. The amounts of gallons that they keep on vessels are going to have growth issues with fuel contamination. Plus by running the fuel through that resuscitation, it shows you the build-up of a growth problem. 😊

I was half pondering if you could take some of the manual labour out of the process by putting the fuel cleaning filter on a separate Solar powered pump to look after itself, don't need to run it fast if it's constantly going. But that wouldn't play well with the anti gelling requirement would it?

I love seeing you work with the oil field heavy haul side, and the great experts 😊 Scania engine willing to work with a start-up is so wonderful 😊 I saw one of there static display marine Diesel engines at a work boat show, was very impressive. I love it. You get the work guy who actually runs the trucks to be part of the design and build 😊 not just a guy in white shirt with black ties engineer types.

Remove the the tracks,back to the highway. They looked easier and quicker than putting on a set of chairs…. The only set back was being able to carry them around…. But that being said ,a company that does that type of deliveries might want to check them out .. save beating up an access road for multiple deliveries.. especially if there are hills and snow / ice /mud , involved ….

I want to get back to heavy equipment. I had run my dad's 30 hp Kubota. The farm I worked for let me run much bigger stuff and I learned really fast. The 924f loading hay with no brakes was probably the machine that taught me what I needed to know. I got to run a nearly new 950K and G I think. This was a decade ago and my memory isn't great these days. Those 950's were so sweet though. The float on those machines was sweet. I could cover ground and keep the loader planted without bucking the machine and causing unnecessary wear and tear. Joystick was also a huge improvement, but with enough hours the old hydro sticks were fine. The hydo finger setup was my preference. But I only got 40 hours on that machine as it was a rental. I really liked it and it gave me a bridge to the joystick. I haul propane transports now but would like to expand into welding or heavy equipment. We'll se who offers me a job first. Being home every night would be nice.

Love this project, love these guys. What a beauty day a, indeed. Takes me back to the days of snagging somewhat staticy SCTV with some coathanger from over Lake Erie. Seriously, I wish they would adopt the generator style hybrid in cars instead of having all the extra drivetrain of current hybrid cars and SUVs. Need a system that will use the 4.3 in my Astro, plenty of room for batteries inside or out.

HOLY COW!! you even got Mike Deboss out there too. actually that's not really a surprise because he strikes me as being a hands-on kind of guy. your engineers will have a better understanding of the different kinds of work that these trucks are being built for.

Back in the early 2000s we got to play around with electric motor gokarts. After the first night i knew these things would be the future. It was all a matter of getting the electricity source figured out. Once you guys prove out the diesal and your platform you should mess with those fuel turbines you can throw anything in to

Y'all better release this mod once you get everything sorted. Especially if you can get the drivetrain to work right. SCS tends to be super engaged with their fans btw, you might wanna get in touch about that. Also, you can get proper shift knobs with splitter and range select switches designed to work with this game. 👍

If they do almost nothing but logging, heavy haul and oilpatch rigups and retrofits, they can do pretty well with these units. But, they'll have to get them out there working first, to prove them out, and that is a ways down the road yet. Whole pile of work to do just engineering the configs folks need for them, then they have to get built and del'd, and build the reputation in the field. That's a pretty fair sized market just in that stuff, if they can get to the point of getting the product out there. Looks like the patch could boom a bit again, as they'll likely be doing a bunch more drilling & pipelining in the next few yrs.

That's pretty amazing, using American \ Euro Truck Simulator as a build & pricing tool. Proper big brain moment whoever thought of that. Also, what is it with Canada and KZbin channels? I swear, half the stuff I watch regularly is from Canada. I'm from the UK.

You will need to add a speaker and a sound to Topsy. Here in the US they are making all EV manufacturers add a sound to the vehicles so that pedestrians can hear a car approaching. Its a safety feature for EV's because they don't make any noise from their engine. ALthough in the case of Topsy, I suppose that the speaker could be turned off when the generator fires up.

27:35 What's crazy is American Truck Simulator does have an experimental vr mode so they can sit in it if they really want. I wouldn't suggest it though as it is very headache and motion sickness inducing. Also believe wipers default button is P.
