Great build. I agree. Do it while you’re young. Unfortunately I am from the generation that spent time camping in RV’s but living in them was pretty much unheard of. Now that I’m older, my health isn’t what I wish it was so I’m pretty much grounded. It’s a shame really because i’ve been plagued by an “adventure bug” my whole life. Live large!!
Congratulations on the new of a baby on the way. So happy for the two of you. Best parenting advice is to make sure your never too busy to love and care for each other. Kids always do the best when they see mum and dad in love, and caring for each other.
Your hack for making the slides on the upper cabinets (using the trellis frames) is genius! 😮 I love 💗 that! You did a fantastic job on the whole bus build. Enjoy the open road. ❤
If I were roughing it, or a weekend camping trip, I might use something like this. But never to live in full time. The bathroom and refrigerator situation is a deal breaker.
Lovely bus! Really worried about him living in Texas, given all the craziness, guns, and from what I heard lately, the HEAT! Stay safe in the USA, but so happy they're mobile and not locked down like most folks.
Nothing crazy here. People aren't running around shooting people or sticking them up lmbo.. Just simply the heat... They will not make it unless they have at the least 1 15.5k BTU Ac
What a great couple you are!! I love your outlook on life= doing what makes you happy!!! That is so important!!! Your bus is beautiful ~ enjoy every moment of every day! Sending you light, love, peace, joy and abundance always. I love you.
I love that you guys have a video on Jenna's channel! We saw you in Florence, Oregon at the skate park. You're such a cute couple! What a fun adventure - good for you!
I can see why a couple would pick a skoolie, because you have a fair amount of space. But I don’t think I’d like the setup where you’re not sitting next to each other while driving. You did a great job with the build.
Trust us- the passenger seat was a big issue! We tried hard to find on that would fit, but it just wasn’t happening. We definitely miss riding side by side, but it’s just something to do different in the next build!
i noticed something with your batteries which could be an expensive issue later. its called cross-connecting. witht he threee batteries hooked in parallel, you have the battery lead both connected to the same batteries. move one of the leads to the last terminal of the battery bank. this way you draw from all three batteries equally. so if battery one has the positive connected to it, then battery three should have the negative connected there. this forces all the batteries to act in unison, they charge better and last longer. your setup from what i could see draws a majority of its power from the first battery and lets the other two just supply additional current, they wont last long this way. now i only had about 2 seconds to see this so if your connections are already done this way no problem. im a rv tech and have been doing work like this for 26 years, before then i was a diesel tech and we use the same approach to multiple batteries. i do like your setup though and running entirely on electric-and making it work is great. if i were doing this, id wanna go propane but then where i live it gets a little chilly at night 5 months of the year.
Omg! Thank you so much for taking the time to share all of this info! We had just completed some “emergency” repairs and the battery area was a total mess. Wish we could have cleaned that up before the tour. We’ve made some changes since, though. Seriously, thank you so much.
Thanq for the video At least with no steps, no thieves will get on top of your bus. That resin unit is beautiful. The toilet and shower are a great idea. Your kitchen is great I love those taps. Only thing I'm not a fan off is sliding cupboard doors, I've got them & dislike them.
JUST finished my 5 window bluebird gas bus. I do NOT live in it FT - but really enjoy being in it & enjoying the travel. And yes they are convenient for camping mine is appx 20 ft long - can park in reg parking spot. Perfect for any Nat'l or State park
How often are you going to be leaving your home for more then a couple hours when you take it with you everywhere you go? Besides if you get away from other people out in the greater outdoors where it's quiet and you can really enjoy it there's no one around to take it.
I’d love to know more about those fabulous seats! I have a bus the same size as yours and I absolutely love your layout. I love all the best as I’ve seen and I’ve been looking for years I think, gonna tear mine out and start over.
Very cute build! I don’t think I’ve seen one of these videos with so many regrets. Maybe it’s time to build one to your satisfaction. There are an awful lot of things you don’t seem to like.
@@SalinaBastos I imagine the first build is 100% a learning experience. It just sounds like it’s time for this couple to do the same, and I bet it will be amazing!
I love the bus! I love the hippie attitude you both have on life! The gas mileage really sucks though. I guess not so bad if you have a couple ebikes to do your errands instead of starting up the gas guzzler.
no matter which tiny home channel I watch, every time someone says they love to cook, the shot of the food is always grass with some bread..... lol or just grass and a drink.... Edit: always raw veggies too.. not even cooked for that matter lmao
Can you support yourself as a professional skateboarder? What is the average length of a skateboarding career? How can anyone afford to run something that gets ten miles to the gallon of gasoline? (Especially with California gas prices.)
I have the exact bus that I am converting. I want to move the electrical from the front to the left side. How much trouble was it for you? Where did you move it too?
