hearing u talk about how hauling ur regular load felt like u lost ur trailer just makes me so giddy and excited. This is gonna be epic. I freaking love what ur doing with trucks!
This fixes bridge traffic jams because it is the big rigs that have insufficient power to get them up the steep grades. And gets rid of all those cars idleing for hours....Gas savings, emission savings and road rage savings.
Regarding Government, I am in my 60s and have watched pretty much every party make the same bonehead moves. If you were trying to start a small business, government is impediment . Just to get through rules and regulations and paperwork costs is enough to kill Most projects before they even begin.

@NEEDbacon because if you have to work on that engine through that pannel, it would be horrible. On a regular truck, you open the hood and turn the wheel, and you can stand on the ground and work on the engine easily. Not with a big steel fender that is meant to stand on in the way. If the fender is easily removable with some sort of quick connect system that doesn't seize, then it wouldn't be too bad. Volvo has their bumpers with a 19mm allan key. You unplug the headlight harness and pull off the sides of the bumper. Then you can work on it. A lot of the cost of repairs is labor time.

With the dual motor e axle you could theoretically have the front axle as an e axle and skidsteer the whole truck or have each side spin opposite of eachother which would make getting into tighter places when backing up
In theory yes, however the trucks they are building only power the rear axles. Thanks for watching and sharing! Consider subscribing so you don’t miss out on exciting new content! 👍👍
This axle on a tracked vehicle would be awesome. Ideal for IFV’s. With a serial hybrid drive you can shrink the diesel and use relatively silent mode. Hope the guys in London ontario are paying attention.
Edison needs to also become a energy coop with every conversion generating 1500 kwh a day during am and pm peak needs. Use hemp fuel and its carbon neutral. Add solar install cat panel, battery bank for each roof. Add wind and methane and every ranch becomes a power coop member. The more 280 kwh batteries the better. Screw power lines, pay 50% peak to the producer not .05 kwh credit in CA. The utilities are crooks.

Wait till you start burning thru tires nonstop. The reason truck dealerships reduce torque is because if there is too much, you'll be burning your tires very fast and or break your drivelines. But that's just my 2 cents. I think I love the idea but I'll hold back with my Freightliner.
Yeah tires are a concern for all fuel types. The thing with electric is you can much more finely tune power delivery more than a diesel. Especially considering there is basically no driveline with direct drive motors. I really appreciate your input Paul! Consider subscribing to the channel. I’m looking forward to your input on future videos! 👊
@JoshWest247 Yeah but several of my friends have told me that tires on the new teslas just don't last due to all the high torque. So if you save 30-40% on fuel but you start burning thru expensive tires really fast. We'll then it might just kill the cost savings of the hybrid truck. But honestly I definitely would like to buy one myself once the become available.
@@paulputin3018 The tires have been a problem because BEV has weighted a bit more. But new design for tires are coming out to combat that. Electric motors won't wear down tires faster because of more torque. It can do it if you to launches very often, which is easy in a Tesla. Tesla has chill mode and Edison can also tune it (they have) so it doesn't let loose all the torque at once.
@@paulputin3018 We did some detailed research on that in Europe ... and most of it came down to the usual suspects tyre pressures and the driver both power use and poorer driving through the bends. Some cars would still shred tyres.
I live in the U.S.A. and the political scene is the same; this explain the system perfectly. I only wish I could have on down here in FL. More importantly @EdisonMotors has done an awesome job producing something in house; that Tesla has not produce for Chase yet.

For the most part, patents are a waste of time and money. When patenting a product, you need to give a comprehensive description of how it works along with drawings. Now all of your competition knows how to compete with you and can copy your invention because you told them how it works. Of course it is illegal to do that but they do it anyway and it is up to you to do your own police work to find out who is infringing on your patent and stop them. Even though you hold the patent, stopping them can be difficult. Check out the guy who invented intermittent windshield wipers.

14:50 What you are talking about is NOT trickle down economics. It is the exact opposite of trickle down. You are talking about reducing costs for the bulk of the population. The basics of trickle down economics is that you allow those who are already wealthy to get more money and that money will trickle down to the poor. That has been the U.S. experiment for 40 years, and it is a big flop (unless you are really wealthy). Some money may get to the poor, but it is a tiny trickle. But the rich have gotten extremely more wealthy. You are making some important points about a system that isn't working well. This discussion needs to happen in order to start fixing it. But please don't toss incorrectly used trigger terms. It really doesn't help.

Make sure the wheel fenders come off really easy. Otherwise, all mechanics will hate your truck.
They do. Plus you should see how the hood opens! edisonmotors.ca
Why, the Fenders are for sitting on while working on the engine. The hood has the unpainted aluminum bits come off and everything is accessible
@NEEDbacon because if you have to work on that engine through that pannel, it would be horrible. On a regular truck, you open the hood and turn the wheel, and you can stand on the ground and work on the engine easily. Not with a big steel fender that is meant to stand on in the way.

20:50 Speaking from expirence with heavy towing, steering like this with big loads 0 or less front axel weights can be quite common. Having rear axels like this would elimnate so many scary but fun moments. Wheely control around hairy corners would be awesome.

With the dual motor e axle you could theoretically have the front axle as an e axle and skidsteer the whole truck or have each side spin opposite of eachother which would make getting into tighter places when backing up
In theory yes, however the trucks they are building only power the rear axles. Thanks for watching and sharing! Consider subscribing so you don’t miss out on exciting new content! 👍👍
This axle on a tracked vehicle would be awesome. Ideal for IFV’s. With a serial hybrid drive you can shrink the diesel and use relatively silent mode. Hope the guys in London ontario are paying attention.
Are you talking about @thehacksmith ?? 👀
Edison needs to also become a energy coop with every conversion generating 1500 kwh a day during am and pm peak needs. Use hemp fuel and its carbon neutral. Add solar install cat panel, battery bank for each roof. Add wind and methane and every ranch becomes a power coop member. The more 280 kwh batteries the better. Screw power lines, pay 50% peak to the producer not .05 kwh credit in CA. The utilities are crooks.
Wow that sounds interesting! Thanks for sharing! See you in the next one! 👋
Re; Madill Sherman Tank Chassis Yarder. Last i heard/saw 'Logging Company' in the lower mainland was STILL using a Sherman Tank Madill Yarder, old saying holding true? "If it aint broken or wore out, why replace it?"
…and “they don’t make ‘em like they used to”
How much does it cost to replace the batteries if they fail/need replacing ?
Less than the diesel and will continue to decrease in cost as production and innovation increases.
The first-generation Toyota Prius was released in Japan in October 1997 and in North America in 2000. Toyota estimates that its global hybrid fleet has prevented 34 million tons of carbon from entering the atmosphere and saved owners more than 3 billion gallons of gasoline. The Toyota Hybrid Technology NOT Subsidized by Government.
Thank you for watching!
how much damage from the battery production to the environment? how much toxic heavy metals from tossed out batteries?
Wait till you start burning thru tires nonstop. The reason truck dealerships reduce torque is because if there is too much, you'll be burning your tires very fast and or break your drivelines.
But that's just my 2 cents.
I think I love the idea but I'll hold back with my Freightliner.
Yeah tires are a concern for all fuel types. The thing with electric is you can much more finely tune power delivery more than a diesel. Especially considering there is basically no driveline with direct drive motors. I really appreciate your input Paul! Consider subscribing to the channel. I’m looking forward to your input on future videos! 👊
@JoshWest247 Yeah but several of my friends have told me that tires on the new teslas just don't last due to all the high torque. So if you save 30-40% on fuel but you start burning thru expensive tires really fast. We'll then it might just kill the cost savings of the hybrid truck.
But honestly I definitely would like to buy one myself once the become available.
@@paulputin3018 The tires have been a problem because BEV has weighted a bit more. But new design for tires are coming out to combat that.
Electric motors won't wear down tires faster because of more torque. It can do it if you to launches very often, which is easy in a Tesla. Tesla has chill mode and Edison can also tune it (they have) so it doesn't let loose all the torque at once.
@@paulputin3018
We did some detailed research on that in Europe ... and most of it came down to the usual suspects tyre pressures and the driver both power use and poorer driving through the bends.
Some cars would still shred tyres.
I live in the U.S.A. and the political scene is the same; this explain the system perfectly. I only wish I could have on down here in FL.
More importantly @EdisonMotors has done an awesome job producing something in house; that Tesla has not produce for Chase yet.

I sure hope you have a patent for everything you can.
For the most part, patents are a waste of time and money. When patenting a product, you need to give a comprehensive description of how it works along with drawings. Now all of your competition knows how to compete with you and can copy your invention because you told them how it works. Of course it is illegal to do that but they do it anyway and it is up to you to do your own police work to find out who is infringing on your patent and stop them. Even though you hold the patent, stopping them can be difficult. Check out the guy who invented intermittent windshield wipers.

No big money and gov shut them down.
You'll need big guys to back you up.

Thanks for the support Bob! See you in the next video! 👋
Elon Musk could invest a few million into Edison Motors, it would be pocket change for him. The front axle should be driving and re-gen too..

Yes I have, RG is an icon, a visionary genius really. I worked for Wajax back in the 80s, when it was the dealer for Letourneau and Demag. My Dad worked for them for 21 years, he specialized in Letourneau on log stackers, when the were a staple of log yards in our forest industry. We moved to Tumbler Ridge for Wajax and the Quintette coal mine when it was brand new. My Dad was running the branch then. I also worked for Kal Tire in the mine, busted those big tires on the L1000. Chance has similar vision and abilities as RG, impressive.

How is a diesel engine running a generator with batteries and traction motors like a locomotive environmentally any different .
Listen to the part about the E-Axles. That’s the gold. 💯

It's more effective to just run a diesel engine on natural gas instead of using electric motors and batteries.
🤔You sure about that? Their data says otherwise. How does natural gas give you torque vectoring in the rear drive axles for starters?
Until you have to rebuild the motor after 5000 miles 😂😂
There is 100% tariffs on cheap China cars coming here, as the government is protecting the Canadian auto industry and jobs which is ridiculous

Josh: this is a torqued interview except for your clickbait headline. Chace didn't say "corrupt" and neither did you. You pointed out a lot of gov't obstacles that Edison faces. That's a lot of counterproductivity and chowderheadedness but it ain't corruption. Save the convoy talking points for Canada Proud, eh?
Please review Chace’s TikToks on the issues as you obviously have not. Thanks for watching! 👍
Sooo corruptness with extra steps?
No real trucker ever needs or uses all 18 gears. An 18 speed is technically a 9 speed. Only you can split each gear. Some ppl might because they think it's cool. Waste of time tho.

No, the end goal is NOT Electric vehicles. The end goal is LESS CARBON. Sorry Chace, but its important to be specific.
Please listen to the entire video. Chace explains the unique characteristics of an electric powertrain and its massive advantages for reducing maintenance, increasing vehicle maneuverability, instant torque, simplified architecture, increased operator safety and so on. There is much more at stake than simply reducing carbon emissions. Thanks for watching! See you in the next video! 👍
@@JoshWest247 Chace is going to need to control his emotions better, he gets really riled up when talking about the tarrifs and government policy, he begins to ramble and then his thoughts go all over the place and its difficult to figure out what his argument is. I hate Elon, but he is VERY good at getting his point across.
@@Greybeardmedic Considering everything Chace has/is dealing with I’d say he’s doing a bang-up job. It’s easy to criticize when you haven’t walked a mile in his boots. I say we let him run and see where it goes. The world needs more young creative guys with that type of gusto.

14:50 What you are talking about is NOT trickle down economics. It is the exact opposite of trickle down. You are talking about reducing costs for the bulk of the population. The basics of trickle down economics is that you allow those who are already wealthy to get more money and that money will trickle down to the poor. That has been the U.S. experiment for 40 years, and it is a big flop (unless you are really wealthy). Some money may get to the poor, but it is a tiny trickle. But the rich have gotten extremely more wealthy.
You are making some important points about a system that isn't working well. This discussion needs to happen in order to start fixing it. But please don't toss incorrectly used trigger terms. It really doesn't help.
