To celebrate 700k subs, we are doing an AMA with Ed this week. If you want to ask him a question, feel free to post it as a reply here. Over 600 questions submitted already via Instagram.
Ed is always so smooth and polished, id like to know what in his life has given him such passion he just couldn't maintain that. The times he giggled like a school girl, jumped round like a pogo stick or roared like a lion.
*"Should I call my lawyer..."* *"I dont have a lawyer...* *"Should I google a lawyer..."* Great video Ed, it is always fun to hear origin stories by some of the most entertaining people!
Such a great story! Love that things fell into place the way they did 🙌🏼 Together, Damon and Dave have turned DDE into more than just a RUclips channel but an entire community that anyone who loves cars can connect with
Dave’s awesome. Love when he does a take over for a week or so and basically runs the channel. Lots of fun and shenanigans. He’s a huge part of the channel and watch every day! LFG DDE!
Started getting DDE in my recommended about a month or two ago. It's such a great channel as the people in it are just likable and not irritating or obnoxious. Their videos they're posting now of them in Japan are awesome.
This is the definition of someone who doesn’t take anything in their life for granted. I would go on the record to say the most humble man to ever hit RUclips.
Loved the interview. Dave is so likable, he's like the canada of people. Enjoyed the origin story. Nice to fill in the blanks and see a different side of him.
This is the story I've been waiting for! Very awesome that Damon saw potential in Dave. And the fact that Dave left his 9 to 5 and went full time into DDE taking the risk is amazing. This is what hard work and dedication can do!
DDE is a great brand that has inspired me to like cars again. Have always loved cars. Appreciate the people I have been able to been introduced to from the channel. Look forward to meeting all of these peeps at some time. @DDE @VINwiki
Wow so Damons love for Carbon Fibre parts and Aero parts in general started as a teenager in his moms garage lol crazy! Also even crazier to think about is Damon making carbon parts lol I would be afraid to bolt anything made by Damon to my car😂😂
The hustle, the passion, and the love for car these guys bring to the masses is second to none. Thank you DDE Dave for sharing your story. Truly amazing !!!
Great way to think outside the box. Fear kills alot of dreams. I appreciate the content of both your channels. Keep making videos. DDE is awesome. VINwiki is awesome. Great content on both channels.
This is my absolute favorite channel, y’all are the most humble and respectful people on RUclips and that why I watch you. Keep making your dreams a reality. #fullsend
Awesome story from Dave. Having the channel expand to other "hosts" has been a terrific model. Once Dave started to take some of the more regular duties, the channel started to grow even faster. He's got a laid back demeanor and seems very likeable and modest. Was very excited when he opened up the R8 and more so when the Gallardo arrived! Well done, Dave!
Awesome story Dave! You & Damon (& Jamie of course) have created one of THE best car channels on RUclips and we so appreciate the entertaining content you provide us. Thank you! & a big Thank you to VinWiki for featuring a number of DDE stories on your channel. Congrats on 700 k! 👍✌️
It’s awesome having the woman you love support your RUclips channel! Mine loved the idea and ended up starting her own as well 🤙🏽. These stories get better and better.
I think bringing Dave on the Vlogs was a brilliant idea. Way to go Damon. I just started watching all the videos DDE. I think DDE is the best out there for supercar content. Keep up the great videos.
So cool, born and raised in Powell River (not actually part of van isle but everyone thinks is it is) grew up cleaning up in my dad's body shop watching him restore classics and build hot rods. Now I'm head tech at a local repair shop. I watch the DDE channel and tons of vinwiki hoping that one day an opportunity like this will come along! You guys are super humble about it all, keep up the solid work boys!
In all honesty, I started to watch more DDE once Dave was added, his personality along with Damon's just works perfectly, it's easily my favourite car channel.
Two wild things about this video. 1. Ed just did a 2,000,000 subscriber AMA this week. The pinned comment is recognizing 700k. 2. Dave and Damon are moving into a massive warehouse with a shop and have a whole host of badass cars. Keep up the hard work fellas. I can’t wait to see what y’all do in the next 5 years.
good video. dde and vinwiki, along with tavarish and a few others have really been reigniting my love for cars. good times watching everyone drive in and around some of the fastest cars on the road. and hearing stories about crazy car shenanigans on vinwiki. seeing diesel swaps on deboss and seeing cleetus burn through junkyard motors and then slowly upgrading everything is great as well.
Dave is far more critical to the DDE formula’s success than I think even they realize. He needs more camera time and is the perfect balance for the way Damon takes the opposite approach with being so in your face with everything. Love the channel, perfect pair for what they’re doing!
ok this came to my recommendations since I am subscribed to dde but this humble interview of dave and wonderful editing made me subscribe to vinwiki thumbs up to the creator.
Inspirational stuff, just goes to show that opportunities can come from anywhere, and that it's never too late to realise a dream! Plus, Dave seems a really great, humble guy, definitely my favourite DDE member. Thanks for the video.
Humble beginnings Dave! worked at starbucks trusted your friend took the risk and it has paid off well. You deserve all your success friend! hope you get more nice cars under your name bro. The gallardo is sweet as well!
Always cool to hear how friends came about and turned into even bigger things. Even better when the people involved are just “normal” people who are able to take a idea that seems crazy and turn it into a dream. Congrats to DDE for making that happen and to VINWIKI for having the platform to share the stories with everyone.
700k subs congratulations VinWiki and Ed! DDE is the best channel on RUclips and its changed my daily boring rest to a fun entertaining rest :D love VinWiki love DDE!!
Supercars yes but he's not holding a candle to Cleetus McFarlands 600k+ -1mil views every single video and with roughly the same amount of subs... But yes DDE is killing it
Inspiring Bro ! The secret is to reach out, believe, and recognise the right opportunity... Bravo ! Respect for your honesty and being so humble about the whole thing. You earned it ! 👍😎
The people around us have allot of influence over us in our life. Those people maybe everyone you know including close family. Don't let their lack of version stop you from doing something epic!
Awesome story brother I wish I can do something like that but I drive a Mazda rx8 so I don't think so. Hope u guys go all the way to the top. DDE FOR LIFE
Yours is a great story. I'm a recent subscriber, an old guy, never so much as driven a super car. I really really enjoyed your story and I think both you guys have great character. Keep up the terrific success.

Submitted mine on IG. Can't wait. Congrats!

Why is Clearbra called Clearbra?
VINwiki What is your opinion on mustang drivers?
I don’t have a question but a request. Go to a go kart track and school the children. Ed Bolin beats children would be a great title
Love how humble and grateful this dude is... class act. Credit to Damon as well for seeing potential in him.
Hey he got out of starbucks hell he should be gratefull
@@Chris-hw4mq No shit thats every saps dream whose busting away at a meaningless job.
Was going to write this!
@@Chris-hw4mq .
I always love these origins stories. Glad Damon and Dave came together to grow the channel and produce such awesome content.
Me too ive been watching DDE for years now! Keep up the good work Damon and Dave!!
Right!
Definitely cool to see this story. Cool to hear how they reconnected and both took a chance to grow DDE to what it is now.
1:58 Same as where I live, Portland is the closest dealer of exotics.
The roads here you'd HAVE to get almost sedan clearance to make it anywhere.
Are you going to upload a vlog in the future?
Dave is way underrated on DDE.
Stig’s Danish Cousin 2 good for Dave Maybe? 😏
Bare surt han ikke laver mere indhold
he really isnt tho we all like damon as hes cocky and that frat guy tbh hate him but respect him where as dave is my guy hes real (there all real)
@@sydneyconcerts902 "that frat guy" do describe a guy who didnt even graduate from highschool lmao. smh
@@VancitySmokers didn't even go to high school. Dropped out before lol.
If your wife will tell you to just go for it if its a dream but a big risk
Shes a keeper
This guy found a good woman
Damon and Dave both have legit ass wives.
@@Moonshine5.7 They're SO legit ass, it's kinda derogatory to refer to them as legit ass.
@@pppaybackkkIts slang. Its only derogatory to anyone ignorant to its meaning. Or trigglypuffs looking for reasons to be angry.
@@1776Redux you misread my post.
Bro I was thinking the same exact thing
*"Should I call my lawyer..."*
*"I dont have a lawyer...*
*"Should I google a lawyer..."*
Great video Ed, it is always fun to hear origin stories by some of the most entertaining people!
Dave is such a real guy, I really enjoyed watching this interview
He is a really good guy
Such a great story! Love that things fell into place the way they did 🙌🏼 Together, Damon and Dave have turned DDE into more than just a RUclips channel but an entire community that anyone who loves cars can connect with
Dave comes across as such a genuine and nice bloke... I'm happy for the dude.
It wouldn’t be DDE without Dave!!!
4 yrs later its cool to see an origin video of Dave and see how his role has grown in DDE.
VinWIki+DDE, 2 of my most favorite channels
When i heard they were coming to Vinwiki was kind of mind blowing.
Dave’s awesome. Love when he does a take over for a week or so and basically runs the channel. Lots of fun and shenanigans. He’s a huge part of the channel and watch every day! LFG DDE!
Started getting DDE in my recommended about a month or two ago. It's such a great channel as the people in it are just likable and not irritating or obnoxious. Their videos they're posting now of them in Japan are awesome.
I wasn't expecting damon used to make car part
Same
No lie, he doesn't strike me as a person that would be willing to get his hands dirty.
He said he did that with Dave 20 years ago many times before in the vlog
Zenn Lozanno foreal dude don’t know shit about cars at all but can make carbon fiber 🤔
nephilly87 or he wants you to think he doesn’t know anything
This is the definition of someone who doesn’t take anything in their life for granted. I would go on the record to say the most humble man to ever hit RUclips.
"...as you do" the most polite way of describing obsession as I've ever heard, LOL!
Where in the video

Absolutely love how humble Dave is, both of them are truely honest people

DDE is what we thought Salomodrin was going to be.
Salomondrin is just a massive flex now 🤷🏻♂️
@@myfriendmoses not anymore dde is
Salmon boi is no longer
Anyone else here in 2024
Weppp
🎉
🎉🎉
yup
😮
I love Dave, great personality. I feel like he is as much DDE as Damon. Those guys are always making me smile pumping out that amazing content.
Dave has literally always been there for Damon. And it’s a true friend moment when you can help each other out. Dave earned that R8. Congrats buddy.
Amazing congrats Dave. Wish you continued success with DDE
You can tell when folks are just good people. Dave and Damon are extremely good people and it shows with the love and support they receive!
This was a great insight into my favorite channel! Don't worry, love you too vinwiki ❤️
DDE is a great brand that has inspired me to like cars again. Have always loved cars. Appreciate the people I have been able to been introduced to from the channel. Look forward to meeting all of these peeps at some time. @DDE @VINwiki
Dave its really something else, hes so humble and honest...
Wow so Damons love for Carbon Fibre parts and Aero parts in general started as a teenager in his moms garage lol crazy! Also even crazier to think about is Damon making carbon parts lol I would be afraid to bolt anything made by Damon to my car😂😂
If it wasn't for Damon and Dave, I wouldn't have ever thought of owning a Super Car. I could never imagine DDE without Dave....
Dave you are a Legend my friend! The DDE is not the DDE i love without you. Damon thank you for Daily Driven Exotics.
What I want to know is how Dave found a wife, a house, and an M3 on a Starbucks salary
not in CA that's for sure. ;)
10+ years of working and saving money
pretty sure they have more than just Barrista positions. He could have been a Manager or who knows what else. :)
Manager?
Canadian stuff bro
Definitely want more of these stories! I appreciate you guys!
I remember my first ticket warrant too Dave... I also thought it was cool for half a second then realized I really need to pay that lol.
Dave and Damon wicked guys. Best RUclips channel 100%. Dave is humble and Damon is just Damon lol.
Great episode about Dave & joining DDE .... everyone always wondered what that back story was.
The hustle, the passion, and the love for car these guys bring to the masses is second to none. Thank you DDE Dave for sharing your story. Truly amazing !!!
Dave is my favorite from DDE .... "To nice for Dave!"
i agree
Man, I'm happy for DDE's success. You took the risk and it paid off.
Great way to think outside the box. Fear kills alot of dreams. I appreciate the content of both your channels. Keep making videos. DDE is awesome. VINwiki is awesome. Great content on both channels.
This video makes me appreciate @DailyDrivenExotics so much more. Keep up the good work Dave
Dave’s life has changed ever since 😁🤟🏻✌🏻
This is my absolute favorite channel, y’all are the most humble and respectful people on RUclips and that why I watch you. Keep making your dreams a reality. #fullsend
Starbucks to supercars. Now that is a Cinderella story.
He didn't say as a barista lol maybe corporate
I suspect that he was the general manager of the Starbucks he was at.
Clayton Panipinto 9:06
DDE is a absolutely awesome channel! These two are killing it in the RUclips world
DDE story on my birthday?! Let's gooooo lol they always share kickass memories though.

I've seen this lambo parked at Pittsburgh Collision, really sweet car.
Hard work and dedication pay off, Dave and Damon are proof.
So awesome, Dave is really the one who made it
the most interesting interview i've listened to in awhile. Dave is a very good story teller lol
Thanks for more DDE content Ed!
Dave, Damon, And Choi are killing it
“What can you bring along to help with the rally?”
“Every month I get a couple free bags of coffee beans”
It’s awesome having the woman you love support your RUclips channel! Mine loved the idea and ended up starting her own as well 🤙🏽. These stories get better and better.
Congrats on 700K
Loving the DDE videos keep it up guys
I think bringing Dave on the Vlogs was a brilliant idea. Way to go Damon. I just started watching all the videos DDE. I think DDE is the best out there for supercar content. Keep up the great videos.
We need damon to tell us how he got the clutch slayer
They did. Scroll back a month of videos...
Crash your 458! N get an insurance payout
@@bossboyritchno1287 lol you are wayyy off. The 458 was 3 cars ago. The clutch slayer is the Murci.
@@bossboyritchno1287 but since he paid for the 458 it's his money anyway that's why he spends thousands a month on insurance
GixxerGuy1000 _ don't see how that's relevant to my comment dude??? 😣😣😣

The beauty of RUclips is that these are real people that chased their dreams.....
DDE is by far the best automotive car channel on youtube imo
Supercars yes but he's not holding a candle to Cleetus McFarlands 600k+ -1mil views every single video and with roughly the same amount of subs... But yes DDE is killing it
Inspiring Bro ! The secret is to reach out, believe, and recognise the right opportunity... Bravo !
Respect for your honesty and being so humble about the whole thing. You earned it ! 👍😎
I've been following DDE for about 12 months now you guys are awesome love the vlog! 2 good for Dave 🤣 good job guys.
Davee, I have so much more respect for you as a person. Good for following your dreams!!
The people around us have allot of influence over us in our life. Those people maybe everyone you know including close family. Don't let their lack of version stop you from doing something epic!
i’ve probably watched this about 5-6 times and those numbers will rise because this never gets old to listen to
I would fangirl out just like Jonah Hill in that situation. Dreamzzz.
Awesome story brother I wish I can do something like that but I drive a Mazda rx8 so I don't think so. Hope u guys go all the way to the top. DDE FOR LIFE
Great vid, always wondered how you and Damon got together.
Never really hear Dave's side of what's going on with dde it's nice to see this interview. Thanks for covering it
Anyone else here fan of DDE???
Run that like I wanna see summ
Yours is a great story. I'm a recent subscriber, an old guy, never so much as driven a super car. I really really enjoyed your story and I think both you guys have great character. Keep up the terrific success.
