Dave is carrying all the weight last few uploads and doing good. Mike, the mad scientist, is a breath of fresh air always.....you got no worries, spend some time with Fam off camera.....good to see you again....
That's the perfect name for Mike the mad fabricator lol
Ya family is always there just like fast and furious
honestly canât stand Dave recently
@@moisescarrillo6991 they seem to think they need to act like 12 year olds to bring high energy and excitement to the vlogs. Dave isnât usually left in charge of being behind the camera and coming up with the ideas for the videos when Damon is gone and I think his way of trying to be funny is throwing stuff around, making a mess and acting obnoxious but it can definitely come across as immature or douchyâŠ. I bet a good amount of their viewers are younger teenagers, hence the goofiness, the theatrics like flames and burble tunes đ I myself prefer the more classy and educational approach like Mr.JWW has to vlogs and car taste, but DDEâs brand is âeveryday is super crazyâ, that and they are mostly hanging around 20 year old kids at the shop or on the meetup rides they do. Just their audience I think
â@@jonathanrollins7292 so why do you watch all of their videos?
The last few seconds of the video prove you're right where you need to be, homie. Take a deep breath and smile with your family for a hot minute. #itsrainingtires
Agreed. That was wholesome af.
Had to watch this all the way thru to see why. and if you donât get it after those few seconds, itâs a shame. Menâs Mental Health and well being are important to, glad to see Damon back enjoying time at home, sure the family loves it like no other !
You are in good hands Damon. The guys have it under control. Enjoy the family and those puppies!
Take all the time you need and recharge your battery. Everyone here is a loyal fan and will be waiting for you to come back. In the meantime, Dave is doing an excellent job. You have nothing to worry about. Enjoy the fam, as we all know thatâs the reason why you work so hard.
Hey no worries man breaks are needed! Glad to see you around though.. your human bro
u watched a 34 minute video in 5 minutes?
@Alex Lovelace no I did not took 34 min silly!
@@alexlovelace829 Can't the man comment while still watching?
ended up in hospital and very ill due to stress in november so now ditched my old job now been working on my health and fitness and the photography which is what i love. certainly more to life than work work work
Damon, you are the backbone, and foundation of this company. Like I wrote in your anniversary post, the amount of work and willpower have had to exibit. You have earned to take a time off whenever you damn well please. Dave is doing amazing carrying it, and Mike is so funny that its more than fine for us to be watching them without you for a little while from time to time. Also man, if it gets too much, Skinny can easily be a huge contribution as well and would be part whenever he could. You have a lot of kind souls around your brand, heck, Id even watch supercriminal non-billpayer Garrett for several episodes simply because I know that you surround yourself with people who appreciate fun, but arent actual idiots. I see you man, truly. Please take the time you need whenever you need it, family first, and mental health. Much love
đ
It sounds like you too should get married đ€Łđ€Ł
Love what you have written so true. Respect. Lee Liverpool uk.
100% i could also watch more of Carlos.. all of DDE supporting cast would do well imo love the whole gang
â@stoney4208 what u dont think daemons worked enough bud come on the guy is praising the founders work ethic chill out cant give a heartfelt quote for someone who is exhausted and streesed give ur head a shake
Damon, you take all the time you need and we got your back. You are an amazing person and a good family man . đ
Time off is real important! Don't want to completely burn yourself hard, otherwise it's way harder to recover. Rest well, you have an amazing team now! No worries at all
GOOD FOR YOU YOU NEED IT YOU DESERVE IT! YOU ARE ONE OF THE HARDEST-WORKING CZcamsRS ON YOU TUBE đŻâïž MUCH RESPECT YOUR BOY LUCCI MR YOU TUBE đȘ
Might be the chillest I've seen you yet!!! Being with family really helps to make you , you!! Stay happy brotha!!!
YES DAMON!!!
The last 3min of this VLOG is amazing!!! THATS the view we need. NOT your face as your driving, but the view YOU SEE as your driving!!
One of my favorite videos yet glad to see you taking care of yourself and enjoying it. I dig the mellow chill Damon that still likes to have fun and skirt around
Praying for ya. Business stress is no joke. & when you hit the wall its heavy. You got this you got much support
Really happy to see you uploading again! The DDE and DDE Stories channels have helped me massively this year with my own mental health struggles, and given me a new perspective on life.
Stay strong and donât feel guilty about taking a rest if you feel like youâre burning out đ
Take your time brother.
We are getting a well needed breath of fresh air with Dave.
DailydrivenExotics Stories Great Video I'm glad the 550XX EVO made it your house safely and that you had a great drive and I definitely understand why you haven't been on uploading on this Channel and haven't been on the main channel and I think you definitely deserve a good break before Gumball
Yeah man, that last few seconds says everything that needs to be said. Enjoy your break and enjoy your family Damon , the main channel is in amazing hands while you rest and enjoy life while you recoup!
Welcome home! Always remember your family first. I met you briefly a couple years back, outside starbucks just as i was starting Chemo. Ive since learned the importance of family and in our cases wife and kids.
You always seem to have firm grasp on this and taking a break whenever you want is only proof of your commitment to whats most important.
You're doing great and have great business partners and friends there to help carry the load.
Hope to one day shake hands again.. All the best!
Damon I gotta say Bro you looked pretty beat down at the beginning of the vid but after you got the car dropped off and went for a rip your smile returned and there was that sparkle in your eye again!!!! Dude coming from a guy who mentally checked out a few years ago and needed to reevaluate life YOU gotta slow her down and take time for yourself and family!!! Life is short my friend so use what time you have to spread love and happiness to all those close to you!!!! đšđŠâ€ïžđđ Coming from a Port Alberni alumni!!!!!
Carlos and Mike are awesome for the channel. Great people, great skills, and great on camera too. Do what you have to, to keep them!!
It takes a hella lot of work and time to enjoy a day like this. Good for you! You guys rock.
Damon everyone needs days off and breaks!!! I would rather you be 100% in then be 50% just to get videos out! Take time with the Fam! You guys do enough for us! Always make time for YOU!
Don't burn out Damon. You have the best supercar channel on the net. Take the time you need and we'll see you back and better.
good on you for being honest. people dont talk about their struggles enough.
It has been good to see dave get out his shell while u have had time with the fam
Keep up the good work I enjoy watching your videos. DDE is about the only thing that makes me proud to be a Canadian to see how far you guys have made it and all for you growing your company. As a fellow Canadian and very proud of DDE and what you guys have created.
Because of you we got DDE and because of you we got Dave, take your break and come back with more fresh new ideas brother, Dave's got this bro đđŒ
No worries buddy! You take whatever time you need to! Your family are very important as well! We love seeing you on both youâre channels! Canât wait to see the gumball rally and for my merch to arrive!
Damon. Stay safe happy and healthy. Take and enjoy your break and extra time with your family. Your honesty, sense of fun, and love of driving are a corner stone of everything that DDE stands for. The fans understand and we look forward to when you resume posting on the channel.
i honestly dont even like the super super high energy things you guys do (sometimesish) so this being a calm video is so much more enjoyable for me
Yeah I'm the same, after awhile it gets a bit too much with that high CZcamsr energy, I like the stories channel as it's more calm and feels way more relatable/better connection to DDE then the main channel,
You guys must love Stradman đ€Łđ€Ł
@@Grundle_ItcH085 i'll watch a few but its not very enjoyable lol
@@Aixalld i can just tell its forced and not exactly geniune unlike the non YT energy
Stradman is so unbelievably cringeworthy to watch itâs embarrassing
bro, this dropped on a day i called my sister and told her i was burned out. burning the candle at both ends trying to work / take care of mom / deal with life just too much at some times. ill say the same thing she told me. go take some time for yourself, and we will be here when you get back.
You still smile when you run your vehicles youâll be back soon, handle your personal business get back strong and better than ever we as fans will always be here †much love and appreciation
I really enjoy seeing this side of Damon. Way more chilled out at home itâs nice and refreshing to see!
Health is better then anything , we can wait for uploads . Donât worry Daveâs been handling things just fine glad your with your family enjoying time off
Nice update. I have really enjoyed the stories channel. Thanks for sharing!
Mental health, wellbeing, family and looking after yourself is always number one over everything else. The business will always be in the background.
Love to you and your family and all the dde fans across the world đ †đ
Take your time mate - you built a great team to keep it going - family and health first DDE family
Thank you for coming out and keeping your commitment for PPIR. It was so cool to see your cars there! Excited for the videosđ
Take the time you need. Youâve got a great family and team behind you. Dave with the support of Mark, Mike and silent Tim have you covered. â€
Whatever is bothering you brother it's gonna be ok. Life is amazing and I think you know that. Don't let it beat you down. You can handle this stuff.
The 550 is one of my favorite cars on the channel. Its not the fastest, most expensive, or coolest, but its one of the most DDE. Really cool and fun car that was built out by the DDE family. Awesome job to everyone involved. And take your family time dude. We aren't going anywhere.
You deserve a break Bro! Spend time with your family. You guys do great work and Dave and Mike and Mark are doing an awesome job!
You've created a really cool company/channel bro. You dont need to be the face any longer we know you ARE the foundation of DDE. I can see your company evolving into like a hoonigan so to speak just keep pumping out creative content and bring in great personalities like Mike etc. Excited to see what the future holds for you mane!
Damon, you have worked ridiculously hard to get this channel where it is, it was always gonna catch up with you at some point. The great thing is that you have a fantastic group of people around you ie: dave, mad mike, skinny, garrett and everyone else. The guys have been absolutely smashing it whilst youve been away so you have nothing to worry about.
Not that you need anyone to tell you this but you have an amazing beautiful family and you and your family deserve to spend time together. You dont need to worry about a damn thing! The channel is still pumping and all us fans arent going anywhere. If anything we appreciate and respect you more for opening up about things.
Keep your head up and we look forward to you being back!
Good to see you taking time for family, it adds the "real people" end of things. Hope you feel better soon and when you come back, can hit the ground running. Looking forward to what comes next when you're ready, because any time you take any break, you come back with a new fire burning inside you.
Much Luv From Michigan, USA

Presley was a riot at the endđ she thought it was so funny the thought of doing something right under momâs nose where they were at risk of getting busted! Nice to see Damon take a little time to sit back and smell the roses, and spend some quality time with the family. Presley still has that young innocence thatâs fun, and you gotta enjoy it now because man do they grow up way too fast⊠that ride in the 550 ripping down the mountain was awesome! Such a beautiful place, and you can tell that car handles like a champ on roads like that. It honestly gave me more since and appreciation for the gated shifting, and how tactile and precise it shifts. I like these type of videoâs. A little of everything, driving, family etc and thereâs no acting involved . Enjoy your time off with the family, get rested up for the exciting trip to Europe for Gumball đđȘ
That was an awesome angle over ur shoulder when going up the driveway.
Sometimes you need more time then you give yourself to recover from being on the road all the time.
Love the click sound of that gated manual going into gear!!! Sounds So Good!!!
rest up brother! we would rather have you rest and take breaks than burn out and quit!!
Thank you for all the effort you guys are always putting in. Not to mention your families dedication to taking care behind the scenes. Behind every good man is a good woman. You and Dave are dialed. Stoked to see you back when you are recharged.
Take your time Damon! Mental health is more important than any car and work. Canât do anything unless your head is in the right place. We all understand that people need a break here and there.
Damon, Gumball is going to be OFF THE HOOK! Save yourself for that adventure. Enjoy your time.
Enjoy the fam we will be here no matter what! DDE fam got your back
Hey Damon, you don't have to apologize for nothing my man, you needed some R & R and spend time with the family .
I think itâs awesome that you know Dave can carry the show in your absence, which gives you time off to enjoy the things you work so hard for!
PS Carlos must be on the dde payroll at this point đ
Thank you for the update and great content love the DDE crewđ€âșïž
Man, whenever you need a break, we will be right f ing here waiting for you... not going anywhere been watching since you started the dde channel, youve never given me myself a reason to stop watching. Dave is doing a f ing great job running the channel anyways i dont think,(speaking for everyone when i say), anybodys gonna have anything to say if you need your fam.
Everybody needs a break from time to time, take it easy big fella, we'll be here for you when you're ready, Rj in Oz
Thank you for showing you when your at one of your lowest feeling moments itâs good to see you in the videos your the only reason I watch not to knock of Dave and everyone else your energy your drive is what motivates me every single day to do what I do I have a 750 whp 2005 sti been building it since I was 16 in 24 now you have shown me a different side of the spectrum in ways I probably understand. Anyway enough of this goof talking keep up the amazing videos DONT LOSE SITEâŠâŠâŠâŠ.
I love you guys at DDE! Best CZcams channel on the platform
Mental health is always the most important I miss you on the channel but the content is still amazing. Rest up with the family man so you can come back refreshed
Its fine man sometimes u don't gota explain every little thing if u need a break u need a break we love and support u and the dde fam no matter what. đȘ
Big fan from south africa đżđŠ đżđŠđżđŠ
Damon hats off to you for taking the time out âŠâŠ..maximum respect from New Zealand
chin up big guy, we understand that doing what you guys do 24/7 needs breaks every now and then :) much love
Youâre very blessed to have a good friend like family in Dave. Heâs holding the weight down for you and killing it. While you relax your body and mind my friend.
Thank you to you and all of DDE for so much amazing content. Enjoy your break, looking forward to Gumball!
We will all be here when you return. You are an inspiration my friend. Take as long as you need. Looking forward to the new content and your return.
Hey bro nice Psycho Bunny shirt. Thanks again for being so amazing to us fans at Slush. You, Dave, Mike, and Carlos are the most down to earth people. You made everyone feel like your friend. Dane
I would much rather you guys take time to yourselves and family to spend time and decompress. That is alot better than you guys getting burned out and just stopping the channels completely. I know you've heard it before but your content and stuff has helped me thoug alot in the way of a good distraction. How can i get ahold of you to ask you about an Inquiry?
Damon take time for you and your family you never know when it to late ! I would give anything to spend time with mine. Love ya stuff !
Good on you for sharing and identifying your struggle Damon, putting it out there helps others who go through the same.
Honestly you seem like you enjoyed making this vlog, just chilled out, enjoying yourself.
Good to have a break sometimes.
I'll be watching regardless
Damon it's well deserved you having some time off work and relaxing with the family. You are on the go all the time with you and dave flying to and from L.a. and Canada each week and vloging all the time. You can not burn the candle at both ends my friend. It catches up with you. All the best. Lee Liverpool uk.
The best part of having friends who do what you do get well stay healthy
Been commenting on how the vlogs haven't been coming out as often or with the same energy but I totally get it now. Take the time to rest Damon, burning out is no joke enjoy your family. I hope you are able to get back soon.
Man I been watching you grind for 5 years now, take a month or two off. Dave will suffice for now đ much love brother
Many of us are envious (not jealous) of the cars you drive and the wild life you live but a smart man knows exactly what it takes to maintain your lifestyle and itâs an incredible amount of talent , dedication and straight grinding to get and stay at your level. I have three kids myself and I couldnât imagine the balancing act you have, keeping in mind you cross national borders to get to work. Best wishes Damon and DDE fam â€ïž
got you guys,,,,hope things are good for you ,,,you got me thru a LOT of bad times remember that
Mr. Fryer .... I am ADDICTED to DDE . But it's because of how honestly down to earth and straight up fun it is . I mean , I watched the Mia saga with twinkles in my eyes . But , every episode is exactly in my head as you have nailed . Quality time and so much REAL energy . No matter what , thankyou , mainly you but also the whole crew ( Dave totally cracks me up ) , thankyou for EVERY EPISODE . You ALL need some quality time . Thankyou
Your always welcome to the mountains of VA buddy..I promise it is different here and we'll help you get in a better mind set..much love buddy
Never related so much with someone before. Everything eventually caught up with me this week and itâs been an emotional roller coaster. Take the time you need buddy.
Enjoy your well deserved breakâŠ.hope you come back after awhile. I love watching you and Dave together!
It's great to see you back!!! It's been a while!? It's such a beautiful day out here in Canada, just lovin' it!!! Don't be such a stranger!! But it's REALLY good to see you your lookin well!! See ya on the next vidmy friend!! đđšđŠđđđđč
Damon please take the time you need for your self and your family
Honestly, whenever I donât see you in a video or 2, I always think that youâre back in Canada with your family. Iâve even thought some time like âdang , when is Damon going to go see his family.â Spend as much time with them man, weâll be here when you get back as always, stay safe!
You never owe the DDE fam an explanation of your life my friend! We miss you when youâre gone. But understand your life still has to be meaningful to your family.
You need to take time every now and then bro. Life is hard. You need to look after yourself, no job is worth grinding your soul. Iâm the same age as you and have been going through the same thing recently. When work makes you start questioning your life and decisions, you know you need to make some changes! Keep up the awesome work bro, just make sure you take some downtime more regularly!
You deserve the break Damon, enjoy your time off hoping to see you soon tho
Missed you man, yeah we all and you need a break. Great to see you enjoying the beautiful sunshine back home . Haha, Mrs DDE keeping you on your toes when tyres rain ( lovely young P ) pointing out it out for you. Enjoy a well earned break in the sunshine at home with your lovely family n woofers đ
TAKE A REST DAMON The DDE fans will be here when u come back to the videos and to Cali for some more shop vids anyways dude Daves holding down the fort while you've been at home chilling man and making some kickass videos of the 599 it just looks so bad but sounds so good !
We are all Family here! Family supports family no matter what! You been doing something much lately especially with Mia 21st and the Fast X Rome trip and not to mention the last 10 years of grinding to get to where DDE is now with 2 channels. The FAM has ya covered ! KING DAVID IS RULING WITH AN IRON FIST !!
Got Nothing But Respect For You Damon You big Fan Of The Channel Never Miss A Video Do A Lot Binge Watching You Guys Are My Favorite CZcamsrs Were All Human đđœâ€ïž
Crazy how connected we are to this guy â€
That drive way drift made me laugh spitting my drink... good job!
Good to have ya back......you are DDE!
gotta do what you gotta do, you are the str of the show love the content
Dave is 100% Better! Take as much time as you can!
take as long as you need off of work we understand its stressful trying to make daily content and fully support any decision you make to help with your mental health because at the end of the day that's what's most important
Damon, man, take the time. You have an amazing job, but in all reality, no one should live for their job. You have a beautiful family and they need you.
Also, I know you think that every video needs to be high energy and crazy, but not one of the people watching these videos are high energy 100% of the time. We get it. A laidback cruisy vid like this still works.
Take care my man
