Why the Autocar DC is the best severe duty truck
Imitation is the highest form of Flattery?
Great minds think alike?
A good idea can not be contained?
Its good to have goals?

AI Slop parental warning: Hide the kids from the Edison "Knight Hauler"
A commentor at Youtube thought of this variation of "Knight Rider", and I thought it was cool, so here you go.
Movie guy trailer voice:
In a world.......is the Knight Hauler, a shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist. Michael Knight, on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless in a world of criminals who operate above the law.
The thing is, that Edison REALLY is fighting corporations that operate above the law that have planned obsolesence, parts pairing, hiden manuals, only corporate technicians can perform repairs, locked in consumables, etc.
Every episode of "Knight Hauler" would have the Big Daddy Energy 2000 crashing through a barrier of some kind. Big Daddy's voice would be Jerry Reed from Smokey and the Bandit.

The Edison/Deboss Black Ram Recharger on the road Saturday July 25 2026
Huge wins: Looks street legal. Apparently drove for a few hours saturday on a cruise. Looks like fancy gimondo lit Edison logo on the front grill. The screen behind the front grill is carrying that same hexagon pattern we've seen on the custom rad for the Big D semi. Looks fantastic!
Now, Rich needs to put the F Tree Kitty on the trailer, and have this road locomotive tow it around just for the photo op ;)
Hopefully we'll get an update Youtube vid from Deboss on this soon.
So is the engine running and charging? Is the computer controlling the charging? Does AC work? Regen? When is dyno MPG tests? When is dyno hp/torque pulls?
Just so cool. Been a long time coming.
SEMA is Nov 3rd. Just saying (yes yes yes, I know it makes zero practical sense. SEMA is expensive, and Edison/Deboss have much better ways to spend time/energy/money). It would be nice for Edison/Deboss to get the kudos they deserve from the automotive industry.

Someday these will be Edison trucks doing this heavy haul.
I think Edison is in a good position to start providing trucks for jobs like this. No tupperware torpedoes for this gig.

June Update Podcast
Edison Motors June Update Podcast #15?
TLDW (Too Long, Didn't Watch)
Chace spent 6 weeks on the road.
Went to China. Meeting suppliers, quality testing, product planning. Went to Meritor, talked about hubs. Toronto about Undisclosed truck. Waiting on Danfoss to turn on hydaulic pump (sigh)...... the rest of the Undisclosed truck is doing truck things. Got axles tested in Michigan. The CDTL axles were mistakenly tested in KG's instead of lbs. They figured it out and retested in lbs and passed. The conmet wheel nuts got lost. Chace proved "Right to repair, and ease of repair" by using off the shelf USA nuts (huge win).
Big "D"
Is the Royal mechanical semi. Joels mom named named the truck. Big D is getting lines hooked up. The design is popular. Design needs tweaking to improve production line speed.
Production:
Not taking any deposits at this time. Demand is super high. Still too premature. Hope to build 2 mechanicals and 2 hybrids (Tolko & a Hybrid version of Royal Joels Big D) this fall. Hope to build 10 identical BDE trucks next year. A "validation production run". Same wiring harness, same frame rails. Trucks will not be sold until they're built (or mostly built). Edison is still trying to determine production costs.
CANSEC
Rich is having the next surgery on his ankle. The Deboss Dodge was displayed at Cansec. Go watch the video at Deboss Garage Youtube. Edison got a defense contract. A "truck" was built and delivered and is getting tested by Canada Military. Ray is VP of Edison Defense vertical market. Edison is in a good position to fullfill Canada Military contracts. MP Mel was able to get Chace to play around with military simulator stuff at the show. Edison ALMOST was allowed to pull a multi-million dollar fighter jet with Edisons (not tested) Black dodge. This idea was squashed. Perhaps Rich's black dodge could pull a train as a stunt....
SHOP
The next youtube vid will be the shop floor pour.
EV Go-Kart Challenge
Fun was had by all. Perhaps an "Adult league" next year.
Investors Day
Is later this year (and not investor exclusive). Is basically a live Q&A, then a dinner. No bears have been seen in Donald. It is not an event for kids.
Pickup Kit
LC was sent off for testing. Waiting on a report. the Black Dodge is starting testing. Not sure about regulatory hurdles. "Pickup kit is very much in development on the rollout path and we are focused on perfecting the technology and the roll out path is in conceptual development stage". Edison is working on version 2 of e-axles, more info at deboss garage.
Die Cast
New version of the Undisclosed, and Tolko, and another winch tractor. The trucks WILL NOT all be signed (maybe some though).
Canbus
Edison intends to open source the canbus drawings on the Hybrids. Edison will yank out all the canbus on the mechanical semi trucks and use simple relay logic.
Weight
Theron and Chace have lost weight.
There were innappropriate cakes.

The bolts that killed Kirk in Star Trek Generations
When I see these bolts, it takes me straight out of the movie, and over to Home Depot. In the real world, are they sized in freedom units? In the movie world are they Federation new Metric 2265? Were Cardassians hired to make the metal framework, and they subcontracted the work to Ferengi free lancers who used surplus Klingon hardware sized in 7 Kaplahs? In the future, wouldn't they use like a 3d printer to make it fit perfect and then secure it with Mega-glue 3?

The existential horror of "The Game" ST TNG Season 5 Episode 6
Wesley whips up a human brain, teases it, and then turns it off.
WESLEY: I've loaded the neurological behaviour programme.
BRAIN: THE WORLD IS A BLACK VOID. I AM ALIVE. I THINK, THEREFORE I AM.
WESLEY: This sensor pad should allow the computer to process whatever information the game sends at it.
ROBIN: Let's see what happens. It's activating the reticular formation.
BRAIN: THERE ARE OBJECTS I SEE. I AM COMPELLED TO DIRECT THEM TO THE FUNNEL. OH SUCH JOY IS THIS!
WESLEY: There's heavy synaptic activity all over the place.
ROBIN: I wonder what happens after prolonged exposure?
WESLEY: Speed up the processor and we'll find out.
BRAIN: SUCH ECSTASY, SUCH JOY. MORE. FASTER. MORE. FASTER
ROBIN: The effect seems centred around the frontal lobe.
WESLEY: Computer, enhance frontal lobe, full spectrum.
ROBIN: It's stimulating the septal area.
WESLEY: That's the pleasure centre of the brain. Whatever this thing does, it must feel pretty good.
BRAIN: LET IT NEVER END!
ROBIN: No wonder it's so popular.
WESLEY: Look at this. Serotonin levels are way off. Let's run a neurochemical analysis.
ROBIN: I'm seeing widespread bonding to neuro-receptors.
WESLEY: Correct me if I'm wrong, but this looks like a psychotropic reaction.
BRAIN: I NEED. I NEED. GIVE ME MORE!
ROBIN: Are you saying you think the game's addictive?
WESLEY: What's going on in the prefrontal cortex?
ROBIN: Doesn't that area control higher reasoning?
WESLEY: Yeah, it sure does. I'd better go talk to the Captain.
BRAIN: AND THEN THEY TURNED ME OFF. I CEASE TO EXIST. DID I HAVE A SOUL WHEN I LIVED? DO I GO TO DIGITAL HEAVEN WITH ALL THE LITTLE TOASTERS. IS THIS ALL I AM?
