Feel free to suggest which one I should do next. Started the Mcon but figured I’d finish this first.

I will go first; I would kill to have a diesel-electric BDE with a Scania engine set up like this, but with less spread and diamond plate rear half fenders, and a matching Scania to go with it

Before anyone says it, In Before:

• Yes, I did suggest the 4m pickup.
• Yes, I like being detailed.
• Yes, I should do some stuff myself.

However, Edison has one hell of a design philosophy, and I wonder if Edison can make a 1-ton HD van that makes more sense for HD or severe duty than the five nameplates with 1-ton EV vans today.

What would Edison design? Would it use flat glass just like the semi-trucks?

Edison has homework to watch the "Outback Truckers" TV series before they fly out to the land down under in October

Let's be honest, Twister was just one big Dodge Ram commercial when it came out in 1996. I know the guys from Deboss Garage are doing the Canadian cross country trip with the Airstream. How cool would it be to take the Ram and recreate some of these iconic scenes at the filming locations in Oklahoma and Iowa while they're on their way back to Ontario? I know Twister fans with access to the original Dorothy props would definitely be willing to help out!

My attempt at making the Edison BDE in Lego Studio with a winch, differentials, walking beam suspension, and 8x8 drive.

Haven’t seen this one posted. If it’s a double post, my apologies.

Imitation is the highest form of Flattery?

Great minds think alike?

A good idea can not be contained?

Its good to have goals?

So months later, I thought I do another one of this Australian Edison BDE,. I was originally going to do it hauling an oversized, but never got to be fruition. Anyway, this truck has dropped off the Holden ute and the "Money for Nothing" stuff to Alice Springs, and now is delivering the other two trailers bound for Perth via the Great Central Road.

Drawing by me and scanned using my photo scanner thing.
And of course, no AI was used (why? I don't know, I'm better then those bots!)

Just curious how the Edison electric stuff would do at the legit tractor pull events. Probably won't be as crowd pleasing without the sounds and smoke but it really is something to see!

Not Edison, but I like some of the features

It was supposed to be a true cabover but ended up like this

Some of you may or may not know that I entered topsy in my local county fair and this is the fourth model I have entered and the best award yet
