Welcome to our cozy little home on wheels! We have been living on the road for about 9 months now, and are thrilled to finally release a tour of the bus! All together the build took us about a year and a half, and we spent roughly $40,000 from start to finish. We filmed our entire build, so if you are interested in seeing how we constructed anything in detail check out our build series!
Thank you all for following along on our adventures so far, and we cannot wait to share all that is to come. As always, ask us anything in the comments about our build, lifestyle, or even just our favorite snacks!
🧡Thanks for watching! Bye, love you!

We forgot to show you our trunk/garage space 🫣 Under the back half of our bed is a ton of storage space that we access from the back door. We’re able to store skis, a snowboard, our backpacking gear, tools, seasonal clothing, and lots of other miscellaneous things back there!

You all did a Great Job👏👏👏Congratulations and Enjoy 🎉

Nice build! great job on it. One note: Carbon monoxide detector needs to be down near the floor, not up by ceiling....

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

Thank you! That’s actually a myth that stems from them needing to be plugged into outlets. If you google it, you’ll find out that carbon monoxide is actually lighter than air and dissipates evenly throughout a space so it’s recommended that the alarms are placed around eye level 😊

@ShiftyKen08 Год назад

I really like how you were able to tie into the bus alternator as another way to recharge the batteries in emergency situations. Nice build! Be safe out there!

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

It was a late addition but such a game changer! We had a couple days of nothing but straight rain when traveling through New York and knew it was a necessary upgrade 🙌🏻

Absolutely love your build!! Can’t wait to build my own soon. You guys are such an inspiration ❤. Also… where is this gorgeous camp spot!!??

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

Thank you so much, that means the world to us!! This was at the Belle Campground in Joshua Tree National Park. It’s first come, first serve and since we got there on a Monday morning we had our pick of some amazing spots 😍

@JetLagWarriors 7 месяцев назад

What colour would you say the outside of your bus is? Burgundy? I love the colour. Anyway, I love everything about your skoolie. I want to start building one of these in a few months. My dream is something like you have, good work.

@AdventureTrudge 7 месяцев назад

The color started as “adventure orange” from sherwin williams but we had it tinted a bit darker! Adventure Orange sounds pretty great though 😜 thanks for watching!

@tinatakach4824 Год назад

Loved the layout of the inside ! Very organized and detailed oriented which is awesome ! Great job . One of the bus tours I’ve seen and I’ve watched many . 🦋💕

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

@philstone5195 Год назад

Cute little conversion. My son and daughter-in-law are considering building out a skoolie. Looks like this video was shot in Joshua Tree. My son lives in 29 Palms!

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

Thank you!! They should definitely do it, it’s amazing 🧡 This was filmed in Joshua tree! We actually spent the week before in 29 palms staying with a friend, it’s a great little town 😊

@lynnescaddan8919 Год назад

Thanq for the video You have a great home on wheels, it's been REALLY well thought out. It's brilliant. PS from what I can see of your window blinds there very pretty. Your gonna wake up to some fantastic views. Do you have locks on your outside cupboards for security ? Stay safe on your travels.

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

We don’t have any external storage so we don’t have to worry about that 😊 if we did, they’d definitely be locked!

It’s the Belle Campground in Joshua Tree National Park! It’s first come, first serve and was $15/night. Super beautiful spot, and so convenient to be in the park!

I was wondering where you find the room to store your dinette cushions when it's in the two-person mode? It's a great design!

@AdventureTrudge 3 месяца назад

Thank you! We just keep them on the drivers seat when we’re parked or throw them on the bed when we’re driving 😊

@melissahoffman4687 Год назад

Awesome tour! Do you plan on getting a wood stove for your bus in the future? You can get the grizzly, or bear size. Great for free heating, and cooking as well!

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

Probably not while we’re traveling full time, but maybe one day if we park the bus more permanently somewhere! Our diesel heater is just so quick and efficient, we really don’t feel like a wood stove is necessary.

The problem with magnetic knives is not when you drive, but when you get into an accident. Sufficient enough force will propel them flying forward.

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

That’s why we put them on the wall facing the back of the bus 😊

Awesome bus! We are still currently working on ours. You did mention that you work remotely and that’s something that my wife and I are trying to do, so I was wondering how/ what you guys do remotely?

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

Thank you!! We both were lucky enough to work for a company that opened a lot of remote roles during the pandemic (we’re in the biopharm industry). It seems pretty difficult to find remote work right now unfortunately, because everyone wants it :( it’s not fun but our best advice is to apply to anything and everything 🫣

@exit8ext Год назад

Can you tell us more about the motocycle you carry?

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

It’s a 2022 Honda Grom. We bought it with the intention of using it to do quick trips into town so we could leave the bus parked at our campsites. However, after 9 months on the road we decided it was not as convenient as we had hoped and we ended up buying a used car for a secondary vehicle. We still currently have the motorcycle but we’re looking to sell it since we don’t have a need for it anymore.

@rebeccalevine6411 Год назад

Oh I wish she converted the dining area to the 4 person table and chairs and the bed…amazing idea but not understanding how they did that!

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

We have a full video on our channel showing how we built it and how it converts 😊

@patmac7524 Год назад

Hi guys! Nice build. We are looking for cabinet latches for our bus build. We looked at your Amazon link but did not see what you used for latches. Would you mind letting us know what’s worked for us? Thank you so much.

@AdventureTrudge Год назад

We just used these magnet latches from Home Depot on our doors and then the second link are the child locks we have on our drawers to keep them from sliding open when we drive 😊 www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-4-4-lbs-Magnetic-Catch-White-1-Pack-9235997/303007626 www.homedepot.com/p/Safety-1st-Adhesive-Magnetic-Lock-System-5-Piece-HS293/312479324

@AdventureTrudge 6 месяцев назад

27 feet plus a couple extra for the hitch on the back. We usually just round up to 30 to be safe!

We found it at a junkyard! They let us walk around and just pick out which seat we wanted, we were specifically looking for one with a built in seatbelt.
