    The DABUS emblem made me laugh... I guess this is BRABUS pun

    • @NeoplanVoyager
      @NeoplanVoyager  5 ปีที่แล้ว +83

      It was due to my kids. they are forever saying can we play on the bus, but when my youngest (3) says it, it sounds like Da Bus, thus Voyagers new nick name...... we are on Da Bus.

    • @XavierAncarno
      @XavierAncarno 5 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      hahaha... ok, i tought it was a pun because Brabus GmbH is the performance branch of DaimlerAG (Mercedes Benz). but that cute if the kids helped you for DABUS's name. have a great day.

    To all the negative folks commenting ... where is YOUR double decker bus conversion?!? KUDOS to you guys for the effort in to your rig and also the video. Happy adventuring! 😊🙏☀️

    • @DiandraStarShine
      @DiandraStarShine 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      that has nothing to do with how awful the interior design is. and you'd know that if you were even a little bit schooled re: bus conversions.
      and beyond how badly they 'utilized' all that space they had to work with, there are far too many SAFETY issues, including that *death trap* of a children's room.
      you missing all the LITERAL terribleness proves you're not at ALL clued in at all to the world & community of tiny homes-on-wheels & bus conversion & the most FUNDAMENTAL basics, *including* the safety issues.
      so there are REASONS why, unlike on the majority of bus conversion videos, there are so many negative comments re: this one. it's not for nothing.
      and it's CLEAR that whoever bought and/or redesigned that bus did NOT study up properly or even visit enough websites or even watch enough videos in order to AT LEAST make it safe for the children, let alone for everyone else. and it's ALSO clear they didn't even bother to CONSULT any designers and/or builders who have legitimate and proper experience.
      also, they don't know how to do a proper video tour *either* re: the genre and they offered NO details as they went along.
      in all my years of paying attention to bus conversions & tiny homes [on wheels or not!], this one is *definitely* one of the 2 WORST bus conversions & tiny homes designs and/or *redesigns* I've ever seen..including one of the WORST negligent designs re: *SAFETY* issues.
      and honestly, YOU really need to study up on the topic before you're *next* tempted to go OUT of your way to prove how uneducated you are on the subject.🙄 because your comment made that extremely & undeniably evident.

  • @kamenrider5019

  • @destatommy9737
    @destatommy9737 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I LOVE this bus conversion! Nevermind what some people are saying, I think it's great the kids have their own private space to get changed or do what they want in peace and privacy. Obviously they don't stay in that room all day long, they get to roam around the bus and ride in the seats up top, overlooking everything down below. I would love to have this for my own family someday. Personally, I would do it a little differently but I took some great inspiration from your video. Really impressed with the full bathtub/bathroom. The music wasn't as terrible as others have said either, barely noticeable when you're focusing on the floorplan- some people will complain about anything 😂 Overall- very nicely done!

  • @maureensmith4451
    @maureensmith4451 4 ปีที่แล้ว +22

    Very nice, except please put a window in the kids room with bunk beds. That’s a death trap if there was ever a fire outside the bedroom. No escape root out of the bus.

    It's just so cozy and homey. At first I don't like the second floor seating area, but then I realized in such a small space, having that extra room is much appreciated. Great build.

  • @MsFrevrysPoetry
    @MsFrevrysPoetry 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    The children's room is sad. Such a tiny space in such a huge bus. It looks claustrophobic😬. Love the kitchen and bathroom🥰

    • @fionakennedy2117
      @fionakennedy2117 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      My thoughts were the same. If they'd have taken out the 4 upstair seats, it could have given the kiddos a bigger room, a play room or even a laundry room (combine the laundry and playroom even) . There are 4 seats down stairs behind the driver, why do they need 4 additional stairs uptop??

    • @drbeanbeanbino5746
      @drbeanbeanbino5746 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@fionakennedy2117 I think the 4 seat up stairs is great the kids prob LOVE sitting up there while on a drive... that being said I agree that room was so tiny!!! The best thing to do would be to knock all those walls down it's not needed qhen living in busses/vans if u really want to there are drop down walls/curtains etc that can be done to put down for privacy if that's the next argument can turn the entire upstairs into a room with extra necessity so to speak make those chairs part of the room!!

    Such an amazing attention to detail. You spared no expense on the appliances. Loved the little dishwasher. The upstairs looks more like a yacht than a bus. Can you stand up inside on both levels? My favorite spot as a passenger would be the upper level with that unobstructed view.
    Tell your wife your next project is an articulated double decker conversion. Congratulations on a beautiful job. I'm envious. 👍🏻

  • @KnowTrentTimoy
    @KnowTrentTimoy 5 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Interesting design. I think the bunk bed room is a little claustrophobic. There really should be no wall there and it should be open to that window side. The seating area on the 2nd floor to the very rear is wasted space. That could utilized as another bedding area. The rest of the camper is nice.

    Awesome! A lot of trade off keeping the passenger seats up top though, that space could have been used for an additional room. I guess this allows you to travel with more people for a camping trip though (if they brought tents/sleeping arrangements), plus it's pretty a sweet view for the kids I imagine while driving to destinations. Hard to say which I would prefer.

    Hi there. Thanks for sharing your bus. I think you have done a really nice job, the finishes look really good. To all the armchair experts making negative and derogatory comments, so please post your videos of your stellar buses.............oh thats right...............you don't have one do you. Most enthusiasts check out each others builds and then find what would work for our application. Don't criticize, try building one yourself, see just how easy it is.

    I'm surprised at such a small fridge. I would have put microwave as one with venting over the cooktop, or wall above the oven. I actually found it looks smaller inside that I expected.
    I thought maybe another bedroom up top . I know it's probably because each room has space, instead of squishing many elements into small space.
