Welcome to our Big Family Expedition! We are a family of 8 that sold everything we owned in 2019 to travel full time with our kids. After being stationary for a while we have decided to live the RV lifestyle again. We are converting a #skoolie for full time travel 2024. Be sure to subscribe to follow along on our upcoming travels.
Not I built a house, But a tiny home, But I am building a skoolie, But I am building a skoolie for full time travel, But I am building a skoolie for full time rv life, But I am converting a school bus into an RV, But I am building a tiny house, But I am building a DIY RV, But I am weighing my bus, But I had to empty it first, Then I had to drive it to the truck scale, But this is a Heavy Situation, But Not I Built MrBeast a Real Life Fortnite Battle Bus, But I don't know if this will work, or any other video like Chuck Cassidy, Isaac Turner, A Bus Life Story, Navigation Nowhere, Us Plus A Bus, Mobile Dwellings, or Jess & Jake would make. This is a real life journey of us building a custom rv to travel full time in 2024.

Thank you for watching our video. Knowing your weight is important in any recreational vehicle. Have you ever weighed your RV? Let us know if you have in a comment.
I try to never weigh myself anymore 🤣Great video and loved the scenery!
Thank you for taking us along with you at the scale
Beautiful countryside! Love the music. Looking forward to the build process. 💛
Thank you! It really is beautiful here in the Ozarks! We're really excited to be starting on the build and can't wait to see how it turns out!
Hello Kenny OliverLifestyleJa 🇯🇲 is here sending full support thumbs up done ✅. Coming from TH-cam chat live stream
The music definitely goes well with the scenery.❤
Good video!
Thank you! ❤️
Good idea to weigh it before/after. I need to weight just my truck sometime so I know how much I've eaten into the cargo capacity. The tour buses I used to drive had a 220 gallon tank, imagine filling those with the small pump nozzles lol. I've had to do it a few times.
Ouch, filling that with a small pump would be painfully time consuming, like watching paint dry 😂
Hey guys! We are enjoying your channel! We are excited to follow along on your adventures!
Thank you for coming along on our journey.
This is so awesome! Can't wait until you finish!
Thank you, we are having fun with it. Should be finished soon.
Hi Chrissy and Kenny! TY for taking us along on the drive. It looked like a beautiful day! Our guesses were completely wrong LOL We guessed four hundred dollars for fill up, and nineteen thousand pounds for weight. Another great video!
We were over on both guesses too. Definitely glad we over guessed on the fuel though 😂
Howdy Ya'll, I just subbed and put 17 videos in the queue to get started. We are hitting the road next week in our RV. What part of the country are you guys in. I will check in periodically to like and comment on these 17 videos.
We love seeing what everyone does with the buses cant wait to see yours and maybe we will meet up on the road one day. Our guess 800 for diesel and weighed 15,000 wow way off on gas oh my crazy but cant believe i got the weight. (Jodi) Kenny cant wait to see this we have also watched Hope bUs they did a great bus remodel. Did you ever watch expedition happiness great documentary! Nice to meet u best wishes!
I don't think we've ever watched expedition happiness. We will have to watch it now. I'm glad it wasn't 800 for the diesel, I would have cried on camera. I did think it was going to be more though, I guessed $300. Thank you for watching.
Connected done
Yes we weighed it both empty and after we loaded.
Awesome, It's always a good idea to know your weights on recreational vehicles. Some people don't weigh and end up damaging their vehicles.
@@bigfamilyexpedition that is so true. Enjoying watching your build
I feel like I was sitting in a room about to start a Math exam and knew I was going to fail! No idea on the cost of the diesel, our pumps are in litres and you use gallons, and as for weight of the bus before and after, I was nowhere close. But, I look forward to the upcoming videos with the building starting. 😀 👍
@kiwiman627 You can get a pass, I would be lost using liters 😂
@@bigfamilyexpedition Thanks teacher!
Have you settled on a floor plan yet? If so can you share a drawing? Curious what your plan is and to see if you have to alter the plan as you go through your build.
Thank you for the question. We will be discussing our plans for the layout in an upcoming video. ❤️😊
It will be interesting to see what it weighs after the build!
Yes, we are wondering how much weight we are adding back to it. We will definitely weigh it again when we are done.
@@bigfamilyexpedition excited to see what y’all do with it.
Nice I would love to do what you are doing.
It's a lot of work but really fun and rewarding, thanks for watching.
I have an 80 gallon tank so $300-$350 every time I fill up
Wow! I have a small tank. I need to research and find the actual size of it.
Not bad for gas. If you were in Cali Diesel is 5.39 a gallon.
Yikes! Guess I won't complain too much then! Lol.
Way too much money to fuel ha ha - can't even guess! 18,000 pound guess... we'll say 19,000 oh 15,080 - nice!
We were definitely surprised at how much it weighed.
Cool video!
Thank you😁
@@bigfamilyexpedition You're welcome
I lost
It's okay, I lost too.
20,000lbs
Good guess.
Well I wanna guess how much in diesel! $276
Good guess! I'm glad it wasn't that much! 🤣
@@bigfamilyexpedition me too! I was kinda nervous after you said you had 2 transactions 😂
18,500 pounds?
225 dollars in diesel?
I lose on both guesses. Oh well, fun game.
@@rvfamilylife I did too, your guesses were really close to what I thought it would be. Great minds think alike 💪
