    Mike & his furry co-pilot live full time in this beautiful, one-of-a-kind skoolie. After Covid gave him the ability to work remotely, he found himself in a new city struggling with his mental health. To try something new, he decided to give nomadic living a try in his Jeep Grand Cherokee. Shortly after, Mike decided that life on the road was something he wanted to continue to pursue. He converted this bus with the help of his friend Steve & it turned out to be the dreamiest home on wheels! Living in the bus has allowed Mike to form a community while traveling across the U.S as he trains for Iron Man.
    His skoolie features a large kitchen with massive counter tops, a deep sink, & a huge skylight that allows tons of natural light to shine in throughout the day. In addition to a beautiful kitchen, there is a fixed dinette that has multiple features including storage underneath & the ability to transform into an extra bed. As you move through the bus, you will also find a shower, a bed, & a large closet. This rig is not only beautiful, but comes packed with everything you could ever need.

    Your opening line about being in a place with no friends or family, was so helpful, because if your single, often that is just the way it is. I have preached for many years for couples to embrace being a covering for us singles. It is compassion and it makes a difference.

      I have a converted shuttle bus also. I love it sooo much and enjoy seeing others’ buses. Yours is gorgeous. Good job. It’s wonderful to hear how much you enjoy it and how fulfilling it is! Hope to see you on the road!

      No friends or family …. but we have our buses. My goal is to get another one. Or ten. And become a “Vanlord” in a beautiful location.

      @erikamassey3582 I'm 60, I'm looking at this and thinking I can't wait to start my shuttle bus build and hit the road on an artist adventure! I have many friends I've made on the road our age and much much older. It's never to late to follow your dreams...I'm learning that when you take a leap of faith, well that's when the magic happens.

    Thought, based on another bus I have seen... add more solar, hinged from the deck to hang down when on the road, and to make shade and rain cover over your outdoor kitchen when raised up. It will likely only produce when stationary and up, but it will not take up any space and keep your batteries topped off better.

    It's beautiful!! Good for you! I've been trying to talk my (workaholic) hubby into nomad/bus life. He's totally against it 💔 😢 We've been together 32+ years. He's 14 years my senior. I think he's going to work til he drops. Praying one day he'll come around 🙏🏻 ❤️

    • @cjhoward409
      @cjhoward409 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We had friends who never had kids and he was a “handyman” kind of guy in his work. But they struggled to keep up with their mortgage and bills. My hubby and I suggested they sell it all and hit the road. They weren’t interested. Even though they had a small camper and liked to go camping, I just figured doing it full time and less stress because of no mortgage would be pretty awesome. My hubby is retiring in 2 years and this is what we plan on doing. We’ll keep our house and property though. We have 2 adult sons who live here. One has his own tiny house and the other loves the freedom of not spending his whole paycheck on rent somewhere. And we love having them here 😊

    • @jimritter6861
      @jimritter6861 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's a disturbing comment. You talk about how hard he works but say nothing about how much you work, or if you EVEN work. Hmmm, could that be why he is working so much. Curiously disturbing.

    Very informative video. Thanks for sharing and for pointing out the things people should think about while deciding whether this is the type of life the want to live. Currently in the design phase of my own bus. Shower has been my biggest hangup so thanks for the tour. Reopened my creative network in the brain and gave me plenty of inspiration. God Bless you and your Fuzzy friend out there on the roads. Be safe, have fun and "Chase what makes you feel free". (Love that)

    What I got from this, is that this young man GETS IT! He really gets that LIFE IS SHORT and that we all must do our own thing and enjoy OUR LIVES and ignore the ID10TS with their negative judgements.

    Hey, very nice bus design. Love the shade of Country Blue on your cupboards and elsewhere. My most favorite part is the double sunroof over the kitchen. Absolutely necessary, IMO. Natural sunlight can be inspirational. I do worry about the ceiling over the shower, tho: you can see the insulation (?) peeking out by the edge near the outer wall. Will water getting in there cause mold, eventually? Also love the open feel in the space by the kitchen and toward the front. door…terrific door, BTW. You did a great job including the extra space below the bed, too. Good luck on your journey and give that gorgeous pupper a pat for me. Added: Just wondered, if the outside wooden shelf/table is too heavy, could you substitute aluminum?

    I see a lot of people getting the front doors on their buses with glass. In my opinion, not that you asked for it, but its the easiest thing in the world to elbow that glass and pop your front door open. You have a nice lock for the rear end doors, but that glass man, I'd be a bit worried about that personally. Anyway the bus is super super cool. You've planted a seed of inspiration with me. And man 90k on a 7.3 is a rare find. Besides the 12v 5.9 cummins, the 7.3 is close second. I read Ford said to expect 500,000 before rebuild, and dodge (at the time) said the 12v 5.9 said 600,000 for the cummins. Have you considered a 4x4 conversion? That's the only thing I wish I could afford when I finish my bus but the quigley conversion is around 15k.
