🔧 Built by Truckers, for Truckers 🔧
Founded by Chace Barber and Eric Little in 2016, Edison Motors is a testament to the trucking spirit. Beginning with a 1969 Kenworth Logging Truck named "Old Blue," they journeyed from Merritt, BC, hauling logs to the Yukon and drilling rigs in Alberta. Frustrated with newer trucks, they rebuilt classics from the frame up, expanding into power generation and off-grid solar systems in 2019. Their journey led to the creation of the Edison Truck, a robust electric truck tailored to logging and heavy vocational industries.
🔩 Upgrade Without Replacing: Edison Electrification Kit 🔩
Keep trucks on the road longer with the Edison Electrification kit. Upgrade your driveline to electric without replacing the entire truck. Ideal for vocational applications, this kit is a cost-effective solution. Unlike other electric trucks, Edison Motors offers customer choice. Choose between Rebuilding (utilizing existing cab and frame rails) or Remanufacturing (brand new frame and chassis).
🚚 Payload Efficiency: The Weight Balance 🚚
Edison Trucks match the weight of a normal diesel truck. With reduced motor weight and additional fuel balancing out battery weight, experience efficiency and increased payload capacity. The L series, though slightly heavier, remains comparable to a normal diesel truck.
🛠️ Keep Your Equipment with Rebuilt Trucks 🛠️
For vocational trucks, keep your equipment with a rebuilt truck. Edison's e-pto and control system integrate seamlessly. No need to replace your entire body when upgrading to an electric truck.
🔧 Bespoke Manufacturing: Handcrafted to Your Needs 🔧
The manufacturing process at Edison Motors is a testament to their commitment to customer satisfaction. Each Edison Truck undergoes a meticulous five-step process, from frame and rolling chassis preparation to final touches and rigorous testing. The focus is on building a truck that reflects the customer's requirements, embracing the philosophy of "Building The Truck Of The Future With The Quality Of The Past."
🔌 Electric or Diesel-Electric: Your Power, Your Choice 🔌
Edison Motors offers both fully electric and diesel-electric vocational trucks based on customer demands. The onboard generator ensures continuous operation in areas lacking charging infrastructure.
💡 Advantages of Electric: Power, Torque, Longevity 💡
Edison Trucks bring increased power, torque, reliability, and longevity. Inspired by electric freight trains, regenerative ability harnesses energy for efficient uphill climbs.
⚙️ Efficiency Redefined: Diesel-Electric Technology ⚙️
Diesel-electric technology delivers peak load demand energy supply. Batteries initiate movement, and the diesel generator recharges the battery, capturing braking energy for restarts. The generator's constant RPM eliminates turbo lag.
🌿 Environmental Benefits: Paving the Way for Change 🌿
Diesel-electric technology results in up to 70-100% fuel savings, directly correlating to a 75%-100% reduction in diesel exhaust. Smaller lithium batteries mean less environmental damage. Diesel-electric offers a practical transition to electric for energy-intensive trucking industries. Generator diesel engines ensure optimal fuel/air ratio, contributing to a hotter and cleaner burn of emissions.

A friend used to work for a company that supplied the arctic cat factory. When trucks were late, the company was fined $25,000 per hour. The company doing this business made sure to have extra trucks just sitting and waiting along those routes so that they could just hook on if a tractor broke down.
😂maybe it was arctic cats way of funding the garbage they used to build there new stuff is a lot better tho
Swedish company that delivered to a volvo factory always had people and trucks on standby incase something happened for similar reasons

Lexan is polycarbonate which is a lot tougher than Plexiglass which is acrylic. The down sides to Lexan are:
1) It degrades when exposed to hydrocarbons
2) It degrades in sunlight.
Both are fixed by having a layer of something else on the outside surface
Yeah, polycarb is the only common material that I know of that gets regularly described as functionally indestructible. FRC robotics teams use it for the intake, which sticks out past the perimeter of the robot and gets rammed into walls and other robots at high speed regularly, and rarely, if ever, breaks.
Is that why Nalgene bottles last so dang long?
Polycarbonate is also more scratch prone than acrylic. Polycarbonate creeps a little more and doesn't take quite as high temperature. Polycarbonate WILL still crack and shatter if there's a scratch in the wrong spot or you hit it fast enough. It's good stuff but not a miracle material.
Yup, best safety window is probably thin (
@@lifeteen2 If I was after the best, I would use sapphire as the surface layer like some cellphones do now. There are also some considerations of what to use as the boundary between polycarb and the surface material.
On the other hand, something you can buy at the hardware store can have the advantage if it does get damaged.
For fuel tanks you should go with square tanks, like the old Mack trucks they hold more fuel with less frame rail space used.
Agreed just like they do on the big beasts they build in Australia
That's also how it's done in Europe, as trucks also have length limits. Square just helps take the most advantage of space.
Yeah should’ve gone with square/rectangular tanks
for ground clearance, round is the go
@Hick25 you gain literally zero extra ground clearance with a round tank. If anything, a square tank, you can get more clearance with the same volume.
Damn y'all, that headache rack is living up to its name! I deliver very precious, controlled substances and if I had done that, delayed a delivery THAT long, or lost it altogether not only would I be fired, I'd probably be under investigation 😂. Cant understand how some drivers/companies can work like that. Good job naming and shaming, nothing changes their behavior except loss of income
Bingo!
Wow, you're lucky, really, most people who deliver controlled substances would get cement shoes for that.
Discussion of mental health in your industry is awesome, Chase. Every time someone visible discusses it, it probably saves a life.
Don't rush your masterpiece brother This project is bigger than any one show. It's not just a truck you're building. It's a movement.
Agree and disagree. Some of us are spending over $1000 to go to the show, flight, hotel, food, etc.
@@jeffreyrousay221
Well it won't be Fyre Fest, the show will still be worth the money. Worst case scenario, people catch Edison at the next one.
Nobody's losing a limb if Edison can't make it to the show. Yes it would suck, but there's plenty worse. Besides, is anyone really gonna bail on the whole show if Edison doesn't make it? That would be silly if I'd already spent the money on tix and 'tels.
@10:25 That old adage once again.. "If you want a job done right, you gotta do it yourself"
Oh man 😂 If they have that opinion of Truckers and Loggers using colorful language, I'd love to be a fly on the wall if they were to hear their favorite Chef or Waiter let loose after a Saturday night.

You guys rock, loving all of the new content!
The fact that “cooter canoe” and “cocksucker” are go-to everyday terms for many nurses…. I’m sure some would have to think for a second if you asked them for a “pure wick” followed by “what gender?”
I never knew the wig-wag existed for low air. Now i want want one in my trucks.
Make sure someone is held accountable for this! I may be wrong, but I’d say someone may have accidentally lost it on purpose..
Oh that's absolutely reeking of an "accidentally on purpose job."
Could be competition coming for the crown😠
I swear when everything is going great, I swear more with delays, injuries and idiot third parties ruining my workflow. SWEAR MORE, whether it's on camera or not. Also, make it to the show or not: we still love what you're aiming to achieve, and we won't give up on you.
Lexan is a polycarbonate, plexiglass is just acrylic, polycarbonate is softer and scratches easier, melts lower, but is significantly stronger and less prone to breaking as such, acrylic is more scratch resistant and harder but more prone to cracking and/or breaking as a result
Lexan/polycarbonate = good for rear window.
Plexiglass/acrylic = bad for rear window.
But, it will scratch, so be careful cleaning it, make sure you don't have sand on your rag.
Polycarbonate doesn't shatter and depending on thickness can stop a bullet, so rocks shouldn't be a problem.
I'm pretty sure you can buff out scratches too.
The issue is that you'd have to buff them out once a week.
Polycarbonate/acrylic laminates are used for up-armored vehicles. Problem is that if the acrylic is on the outside, it'll still crack easy if you get a rock. A acrylic sheet outside a and a polycarbonate sheet inside would be interesting, and then just give drivers an extra rear window to slide in whenever it cracks, and acrylic is relatively cheap. Your driver protection is in the polycarbonate, and the acrylic keeps it looking nice.
Not sure about how much light distortion you will get...
Wonder how fighter jet canopies stay looking good?
Man it would be so awesome if you guys had a vetted list of owner operator truckers/companies that all had to be verified 5 star rates good old boys that actually care about doing a good job and get a premium rate for the amazing service!!!! I’m sure there are a lot of other companies out there willing to pay extra to have the peace of mind to have access to a list like that!!!
I know a ton of people who would pay extra to an increased peace of mind on critical loads
That with along with drivers personal numbers. I work for a logistics company and we require drivers cellphone numbers. On critical loads. We have to call the drivers phone and watch them answer it in front of us before we’ll load. We also put our 24 hour number on all their paperwork as well as our dock managers numbers. Just so if he has any questions or problems he can call us!
@@EdisonMotors
That's why I wear a rubber... 😉😂
@@nicksurfs1
Big difference between dispatching company having their personal cellphone numbers, but god help whoever leaks my number to a customer directly, because it's NEVER "just for critical loads" with them😂
Go for 22x22 square tanks, and id even argue doing like 4 22x22x22 cube tanks that way if you breach one tank you only loose 1/4 of total capacity rather than half. Yes the valving to switch would be more complex, but switch valves are simple anyways.
I love listening to Chace when he's triggered by something. It makes me happy that he is so passionate.
I bet there are a bunch of owner operators, just like the dude that drove Carl down to the show, that would love to run dedicated freight for you guys.
It's a good thing you made it clear what company decided to make up their own rules. Maybe this video will get shared enough that people will think twice before choosing them and they won't do any more shady stuff. Or maybe they will and they'll have to shut down.

I’ve pulled trailers with air tanks tucked into the frame. The twisting of the frame cause 2 tanks to fail before we changed the mounts to give the air tanks some suspension.
Make sure you use double sided UV protected polycarbonate for the back windows it's the clearest and strongest option and the UV protection layers will keep it that way for many years.
C H Express is gonna be review bombed
Already happening 😂
It already went from a 4.5 in Edison's YT short to a 3.6 in this video...
Now at 3.2 stars
Lol all the reviews are from like 30 mins ago
Edition we got you!!
Plexi-Glass is acrylic and makes sharp shards. Lexan is polycarbonate and doesn’t makes long shards. Dirt track racers love that stuff because it’s impact resistant. Excellent choice for the rig
I'm not sure how you feel about the buzzer. So - are you saying you LIKE the buzzer at 3AM when you're going into work? :D
The best location of the electric stuff radiator should be in front of the conventional engine radiator, so that it doesn't get heat from the hotter radiator in front of it (if the fan isn't blowing forward). Anyway good content as usual :)
I just saw the short. It's great to hear that the headache rack finally made it. I hope that it wasn't damaged.
Personally I would keep the two radiators separate and not make them a integrated one peice unit but gotta confess that particular radiator manufacturer sounds a good one to go with.
Nice of them to offer a radiator design but remember, "off the shelf", stay away from custom unique stuff as long as you can. Here's hoping the rack shows up undamaged, fingers crossed
That bit about the language is absolutely ludicrous 😂😂😂 definitely came from someone who has never worked in the field
When you slip off a bolt and punch the frame rail with the might of Hercules, try not to cuss, I dare you 😆
The mentality of "if this is strong enough, then a little more is even better" is one I have to admire in your company. Decades of watching companies pare down to where a part or product is just strong enough to do the job for a set period of time is the reason so many of them are penny wise and dollar stupid, and why what you do is so important.
Colossal Hosers Express gone from a 3.6 rating to a 2.8 rating!! GET EM, Y'ALL!!!🤟😤
The way you end the vids is the best 👌
Interesting conclusion about the freight shipping. So many companies nowadays come to that conclusion. I myself try to use it as little as possible as stuff just gets damaged or delivered way late
We had those wigwags in our green Terex haul trucks. Only real men use working words. Thanks to all the people helping you on this build.
As a farmer and fleet mechanic stuff happens don’t worry honestly is what’s valued to me.
Keep up the good work boys.
I was surprised at you talking about getting a custom built radiator, earlier in the build you were talking about using "off the shelf parts", and using what was readily available if something broke.
I realise the electrics are a "one off", at the moment, but the as for the "mechanical" parts, and something like the radiator which is easily damaged, I think you should take it into consideration.
A similar annoyance to fix is the reversing alarm. Wish fleet operators would just get automatic adjusting white noise reversing alarms and be done; they're not that expensive, and they are never too loud or too annoying to operate.
Thanks for the code, excited to see the new one, or at least CARL
5 mins and 125 views good job guys
You guys got this you will have the truck ready I’m proud you guys
After seeing so many comments saying stick with 2 seperate radiators ive got a thought.
Since the custom radiator is being designed from the ground up, is it possible to alter the design of it or the truck to allow both options?
Essentially the truck would sold with the custom radiator installed, but is capable of having that radiator swapped out for 2 standard radiators in the event the OEM is not available for whatever reason.
As an engineer myself, I realize this may be far more complicated than its worth, wanted to pitch the idea incase it hadn't come up.
Keep kicking ass bois, you're creating something revolutionary.
I’d have kept two separate radiators TBH… Keep it simple and easier to replace individual components as they fail/get damaged rather than a fancy combined component that has to be special-ordered and shipped before you can get back on the road. I love the pluggable fins concept though!
I am impressed that so many fans of your work are spamming C H Express' Google reviews (I am also suspicious of the sudden influx of so many positive reviews coming in today in a weak attempt to counter the Edison Army of fans).
If the trucking industry could work with only owner operators it would clear up a lot of the issues we run into. Keep any company accountable for their f ups. I new and love the work Tesla this is how it's done
I’m thinking I’ll make a list of owner operators that are trusted enough to haul out freight and only use those
Love what you guys are doing keep it up
That radiator deal is super awesome!
lexan in polycarbonate - plexiglass/perspex is acrylic..
Polycarbonate is a lot more impact resistant, acrylic is cheaper and more scratch resistant.
(So a composite - Polycarb for impacts - laminated with acrylic on the surface for scratch resistance)
Yep - that load should have been put on the hotshot deal you paid for - single item load one way, a premium was paid for the service.
I got my fingers crossed! I've been following this project for a couple of years now and I wish y'all the best. Hands down one of the coolest projects a simple blue collar man has ever created and you're killing it every step of the way even if it's causing you a great amount of stress, you carry it very well.
I make suspension packages for milk trailers and we use plastic clips for the air lines to do the same thing as those zip ties. The zip ties don't look as professional, but definately look more effective. The clips like to fall off when the lines stretch
Aw come on, colorful language is a stress relief and good for mental health.
These videos are honest and real, and making everyone check themselves would likely come across as less genuine.
Besides, when Chase does it some of the stuff he comes up with is totally off the wall. 😅
That’s my reasoning as both a director of the company and the editor of the footage, to not sensor it. So far.

That is going to be a hell of an engineering challenge to have one radiator that can run at both temperatures. Those batteries like to be a lot cooler than that diesel generator.
If you loose your air pressure when your driving the breaks are dynamite had me laughing so hard 🤣🤣
The difference between lexan and plexiglass, is that lexan is polycarbonate, and plexiglass is acrylic.
Polycarbonate is what safety glasses are made of, and is very shatter resistant.
Acrylic is more likely to shatter, but is easier to work with as far as heat bending, cutting and chemical welding go.
You should look to see if 3M have some kind of a film you can put on the rear window to protect it from scratches, like an oversized screen protector.
Now that I think of it, the screens in the cab should probably come with tempered glass screen protectors as standard, being in a heavy work truck.
As far as language goes, how can you trust a logger, trucker or mechanic that doesn't swear?
I’d like sealed little medium duty tow truck like a 25 ton but really because the hardest thing to do is set up the PTO.
One thing that I've seen a number of other people do with critically important packages, is put in an Apple AirTag on it so that you can independently track it and know exactly where your precious cargo is.
It's such a good thing watching their rating go down and watching them pay as many people as possible to 5 star in opposition
Down to 2.9 stars at the moment. 😂
They keep buying good reviews and reporting ours. Wtf
Unfortunately they got it back up to 4.6 by getting a bunch of the one star reviews removed.
Can't wait to see what Mesabi does for your radiator
Shouldn't the ev radiator be in the front so it doesn't soak up heat from the other coolers & diesel radiator?
Yes, we made a mistake on this a one. The math says it should work still but I’d switch it on future versions
I’ll be the first to admit we’re not perfect yet
@@EdisonMotors i know I heard you talk about Carl's not being right because the electrons need to be cool than the engine. Or something like that
The radiator for the batteries and inverter/generator should be mounted in front of the engine radiator just like you would for an air conditioning condenser. This is to apply the coolest air possible and to allow for proper shrouding of the main radiator for optimal air flow during non-ideal cooling time IE idling. The engine's radiator is fine to be in the back as it offers far more surface area for heat dispersion.
You should think about contacting May West poly products. For some poly skid plates on your rear frame.
Logger talk is real as it gets..
Swearing in the shop is more professional than not imo, especially if you come from the industries you guys are from. It just shows that you've got experience.
It's always a matter of when you start swearing in any manual labour job, not if, when.
Chace, You need one of my SimShifters on your desk 😉
we have a company based in a city an hour and 30 min away from work that asks for a very specific driver of ours over any company in that city (we normaly deal with rockcrushing and gravel haul) when they need stuff hauled for reason like this
I agree with the idea to make up a rolodex of good, trusted truckers.
One of the biggest problems I saw with the trucking industry while I was in the business was that there are little to no relationships between shippers/receivers and the trucking companies they use. They just post something up on the load boards through a broker and then it goes to the lowest bidder. Then the shipper or receiver complains when there's less-than-reliable truckers hauling their stuff.
Haven't met a mechanic yet who didn't have their own "magic incantation" of swear words that would inevitably work and have the vehicle fire up. Sometimes it takes multiple attempts, and some minor adjustment of the order of words, but it'll eventually work as long as you keep at it. Anyone who says it's unprofessional has never spent adequate time with a real mechanic or engineer. They put sailors to shame with their daily banter.
I have faith, look at what youve done. If it doesn't happen well shit happens thats out of your hands.
honestly dude the cost and pain now could pay off big in the long run if you can create your own internal shipping service. there are many examples of companies creating a support secondary company and that ends up being successful on its own.
if you are having this type of issue with this kind of freight its likely others are as well. if you get it figured out for your fleet it would be pretty straight forward to use any extra capacity to offer shipping services for others and have a secondary source of income for the business. especially if you can someday do the runs using your own trucks, then you save money on the equipment, get free advertisements, potentially write off some or most of the costs of the fleet (im not a expert in taxes though) and control your own production workflow. Little Ceasers pizza is so cheap because of something like thisproduction
I love what y'all are doing even though I am sure that Paccar and the other parent companies will lobby for more regulation regarding diesel-electric trucks and you taking a bite of their pie. One question I have is what is the plan for trucks that have a wet kit and need a hydraulic pump that is typically pto driven by the engine?
They answered it in another video.
The PTO is replaced with a property sized electronic motor.
SUE THE SHIPPING COMPANY! You need to sue them. I know it wont fix things for the show, but you need to make an example of them. There need to be consequences for incompetence, fraud, etc. They are doing very real material/monetary damage to Edison.
You paid for a service they did not provide. That's fraud, breach of contract, etc. You could even argue theft at this point.
absolutely, everything they were payed times 3 at least.

Lexan vs plexiglas:
Lexan (polycarbonate is the generic term) is impact resistant.

You want lexan.

Headache Rach is giving you a Headache.
Im looking forward to hearing about your impressions of Mesabi radiators, it would certainly be nice to see parts from a Minnesota company on the Edison trucks.
Seems like that missing rack is really creating a huge... Headache (puts on sunglasses, cues intro)
Should the EV-component radiator not be in front of the diesel generator radiator, and not behind?
I would think it would be best to keep the batteries as cool as possible, even if it means the generator runs a little hotter. Batteries are very sensitive to heat.
Should have sent your camera guy back to BC with a U haul with the headache rack.

My only issue with the wigwag is if your driving down a logging road it's going to be wagging back and forth like there's no tomorrow... The buzzer might be a better idea for heavy duty logging\mining trucks
I don't think that's the case fam. The wig wag only dangles when air pressure drops too low. It doesn't swing when under pressure.
@@planem1916 you don't know much about airlines and air pressure do you?.... how's it supposed to move if there is no air pressure 🤣🤣
@@MohawkMikey Gravity friend.
Wig wags are a warning that air pressure is dropping too low. It's not air pressure that makes it move, its air pressure that stops it from moving.
When sufficient pressure is built the wig wag will retract (if automatic) or needs to be pushed into its retracted position (if manual). The constant air pressure will keep it in place.
When pressure drops below x psi, the wig wag cannot stay in place and drops down warning the driver of low pressure.
Hope that clears it up.
CH Express is not just shaking hands with danger. THEY ARE THE DANGER!
You could’ve hired tow truck company with a flatbed to do that. They want to get it out there get it picked up deliver it and get back home. One thing. One-stop one drop to get home.
