We pulled our Trailer; You won’t believe what we weighed!
Today is an exciting day as we take our new to us logging trailer out for road testing! After all the integration and shop testing, it's finally time to hit the road. We picked up a set of super B-log trailers and headed to the mill to get everything ready.
Super B-log trailers are unique because the rear trailer is connected to the lead trailer with a fifth wheel. This design requires careful weight distribution, especially in mountainous regions. We'll show you how we manage this, improving traction on our drive tires, as we deck our trailers at the sawmill.
Join us as we back the trailer into position, scale the truck, and head to the charging station. Our Edison Motors truck is equipped with cutting-edge Electric Charging Technology, making it the payload king of the bush. We'll also troubleshoot some regen issues with our engineering team, proving that testing always brings new challenges and learnings.
Watch as we dive into the nitty-gritty of our testing process, and see how our team resolves issues on the fly.

Today, we have a truly special guest, Rick Johnston, joining us to share the amazing journey of his classic truck, Carl. Rick originally bought this truck long before the advent of Edison Motors or social media. He never imagined it would become the remarkable electric vehicle it is today. Rick recounts the truck's history, from its early days in the 1960s when it was first purchased by Johnny ...

    Well. You seem to already have a solution. Though I am curious about the implication of using a capacitor or a super cap to absorb the load. Though that would only have a finite amount of downhill usage

    Why just do all the extra steps and just have it be diesel Plus you don't really have to worry about the environment all that much because diesel is statistically better for the environment than gasoline plus you still get the torque and horsepower benefits and better off-road performance just leave it as a diesel what if you really want to worry about the environment so much just make it a hybrid where you can swap between the diesel and electric motor depend upon situation and what is required

    Now we sit and wait for him to figure out he actually just increased his fuel costs even though he isn't paying tax on the fuel anymore because he is losing 20% in the conversion. also, they will eventually find a way to make you pay that tax for an electric vehicle. They are just pushing those right now, so they are happy to let you think you are getting away with something.

    So you're not paying your fair share of taxes because your vehicle has an electric motor? Your electric vehicle has a high rate of wear and tear on the infrastructure. Tire wear/pollution is higher. It's like staying at home and being paid the same for a job that another actually goes out to do. If you like electric, fine, but there's not special treatment here. That loop hole will soon close.

  • @Prozach45
    @Prozach45 Před 26 minutami

    The thing that most people don’t realize, and Elon has spoken about, is the mass manufacturing process is a mess. You can build two electric semis because you converted two preexisting trucks. And they are just for you. There’s no pressure to mass produce millions of these. Tesla has to design and prototype an entire truck, and get a concept to work from scratch, not a preexisting semi. Then, they have to build an entire factory and specialized machinery to mass produce that specific truck. And then, they run into production and distribution problems. I’m not faulting your idea, it’s awesome. But people have to understand the vast difference in converting a couple trucks to electric vs mass producing an entire fleet for the world, free of issues and design flaws, whilst also passing strict regulations for various countries.

    Soooo... any physicist, or engineers in here? How efficient are power generators compared to gas engines including the power loss when tranfering from generator to battery to electric motor instead of just from gas to motor? Sounds like he is paying that tax in inefficiency, also adding the cost of having to replace an expensive battery while polluting more. Where is the W in all this? Its another "freak-in solar driveway!"
