Wow, we made a movie!
Thanks for taking the time to check it out.
For those that think it's too long, I have an idea for you: Put it on a loop, let it play 16 times a day, and Bam! A free screensaver! 😘
Hilarious 😂 unfortunately our service requirements won't allow for that
And what a great movie you made. I think we all knew how resourceful you are from your channel, but this displays your skills way more then anything you've done. So glad Chris let you go for as long as you wanted. You couldn't have gotten this all in without a full length movie. Another great job Dean, without having to do all the editing yourself!
The Skoolie That was awesome Dean, very informative & relaxing.
I did not find it too long. Because of the way you explain things and the sound of your voice it makes me wish it was longer. Dean, your skoolie rocks!
I agree with Rosalie. It was very informative, you talk well and don't repeat yourself...qualities that are actually uncommon! It's been added to my favorites. Thank you, Chris and Dean! Great video!
The first narration that wasn’t boring! (Sorry guys✌️). Nice work you’ve created. Interesting and charming! Thank you, safe travels! 👏👏♥️🙏♥️✌️
My dad bought this exact bus. It’s in the driveway now actually. We are out here in California. Awesome job on the bus, he absolutely loves it!
Michele Johnson wow! So, he sold it?
Your Dad bought this bus? Lucky him, cuz is beautifully made! Wishing him lots of adventure along his journey.✌
My dad bought it from another guy who drove it all the way to Cali. My dad left yesterday in it to drive all the way to Georgia. It’ll be his first but not last adventure in his schoolie.. Thank you guys for your comments.
@@Sassyglbeauty wow I thought she meant same model. not THE BUS..WOW
@@michelejohnson1098 WOW happy travels to your DAD ;)
For those of us that can't get enuf of you Dean this is perfect!!! You are a natural born teacher and i appreciate your attention to details! Super sweet home. Hard work paying off . It is so nice to hear how happy you are with everything.
Thank you Linda! It's very possible to get too much of me I'm sure. 😂
The Skoolie its true everybody in small doses! U are one of the cutest& smartest smartest & cutest, that's what she said!!!
Im watching this video with my pencil and a notebook. This was very informative. Thank you!
After seeing how long this video was going to be, I immediately thought, "No way, I'll be turning it off in 10 minutes max." WRONG! I couldn't stop watching it! Fabulous "movie"! Dean does a great job explaining everything clearly with a smooth, even narration at the perfect pace. I am so impressed with this Skoolie! So well thought out and so well designed. Bravo, and happy trails!
When videos are this long, I watch them on 2× speed. You can still understand them, although they talk really fast, but you still get to see everything. I find it a nice in between, because I do like videos where I get to see everything.
I have watched this three times! Loved every minute!
One of the best tours and builds I have seen. This gentleman was very thoughtful and explained everything in detail without being boring. Nicely done.
I was just going to write that it was long without being boring. Great job.
informative not too personal wish they'd all do that
Someone else has killed the big one. What's a girl gonna do?
Wow! This guy is smart, articulate and detailed. One of the best schoolie videos. I would buy this bus with confidence that it was built to top notch quality. Impressive.
I was thinking the same, I'd just change out the toilet😆
@@sunny_dhende6289 I thought about going that route, after his info. on weight. NO. WAY. ( too empty and clean it ) he did great detail on products.
Usually I don't watch all of Tiny home tours because there too long and I skip through them if I watch them at all. I did watch this vid, in several segments, and found it worth watching. I also found it interesting how simple things can be when a single dude is living alone. lol.
Nice job
Wow did you say you live by yourself I always wondered where my long lost man was ❤️😊 this is definitely a dream home 🚌
OH MY .. I loved to see ur top deck w/toolboxes !!!. I bought a 5th wheeler frame ( was extra big RV) . its a 27 ft'r I was only looking for something w/18 to 20 ft. when I ran across it. was like wow the 5th wheel top is an extra 7 ft. my plan already in my head ( I think anyway ) I said GREAT it will be my porch area. I will get tool boxes for storage and have great seating... When I saw your boxes, I said hey!!! he got my idea. neat.. AWESOME SKOOLIE ( by the way )..... plan and think.... I've wore out a many erasers, youtubed a million videos of skoolies, tiny houses , box trucks. had no clue which to pick figured I know it when I saw It. Then I did. I cant wait to start my build. had it 2 or 3 weeks now IT WON"T STOP RAINING I mean POURING. so watching more videos and wearing out more erasers. boy I got a million ???
what a welcoming home you’ve built. nice and cozy.
hi Dean,
usually I write a Novel when I comment.
But, all I can say, as others have, is WOW.
I live in a (set up in a RV Park/$745+ a MO!!!!!)) 30' 1990 Fleetwood RV/Travel Trailer that, despite a 3 mo remodel (which did come out nice), isn't anywhere near as cool as your "Mobile Home".
Such a well thought out and brilliant of a job designing and building.
All Kudos to you.
Stay safe & warm.
cheers

La Mesa, ca
Fantastic information, insight and skoolie! You provided information that is not commonly talked about in youtube skoolie videos. Thank you!
I love him. The way he talks is so calm. I barely noticed the video length. lol. Great Skoolie ☺️
This is another neat and clean flow bus like cicelia I like it alot keep up the good work.
Oh my goodness. I need him to help me build mine. He explained things so well. I just need help with electrical. I’m clueless in it. But I will figure it out or electrify myself trying. Lol
You can always hire an electrician for a couple hours to check your work to make sure it's safe to run. 😁
I probably will. Lol
The Skoolie Thank you for your response. Wasn’t expecting it. Awesome
I love Dean’s videos! I miss him! I wish I had known he was selling his bus. I would have bought it! This is a very in depth video. Thanks for sharing all the info
We absolutely love the amount of thought and detail you put into your bus. Thank you for explaining all the details of your bus.
The best schools or tiny or RV ever! So cool!
Thanks for letting us ride along!
At first I was going to click on another video because I thought it'd be too long but I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of tips and tbh, I loved your explanation, you kept me glued to my laptop. This is one of the best vids. PS: I think ur home is awesome! Thank you for posting!
One of the best videos I have watched and I picked up a few pointers. Well done, thank you!
This guy is Fantastic! , He's grounded and clear with a nice sense of humor. I really enjoyed this and learned so much! Thank you!!!!
Such resourcefulness. I love to see people who are self-sufficient, happy, and content with what they have. Great video and info tour. Thanks.
Love the storage idea of not having to lift things up. Love his honesty... like ...hammock I used it a couple times.
Good job Chris & Dean . I needed a 2nd bowl of popcorn !
I love this guy's sense of humor! Love it! I will say that keeping those school bus windows is going to be problematic over time. They leak. Excellent build! I especially love builds with separate showers & toilets!
I'm considering building a Skoolie and now that I've seen this detailed breakdown of your Skoolie, I'm even more confident that I can build one.
TRY it then SIT BACK and ENJOY it.... I PROMISE you won't REGRET it...
Thankyou for showing us,.and sharing, teaching. My heart is overflowing for you and everyone that loves
Good plan to have the bathroom. Looks airy and friendly. Enjoy seeing places .
Only halfway through and already got some useful tips from this! Really enjoy these videos, that center more on practical questions than design. 👍
I appreciate that! I was hoping this could be more informative than just how pretty my drapery from Target is. 😁
I want this guy to host every camper tour from now on
The bus looks great Dean you did a great job on it thanks for the ride.
Wax
Good explanation. .even tone. .enjoyed this.
By the way, Those holders on the wall just noticed you put the remote and I said to myself; YES I will be applying that to my tiny space. thank you :)
The shower is great, you can use according doors they don't take up a lot of room...going w/o making my bed would drive me crazy, while in the Air Force I helped all the young 18 year olds make the corners, my bed was used as the explain for all others during basic training...thank you for explaining the toilet, been watching these videos for a long time and no one explained it like you so now I know I couldn't use it...Saved myself some money and going off grid propane is the way to go easier and cleaner...nice build...OMGOODNESS the view is incredible...enjoy your travels...
That was a lot of information. You have a beautiful bus.
The stock mirror is great for backing up. Been driving one since 1993.
I really liked this skoolie and the style you chose and the length of the video was fine. Really nice
I like the layout and furniture you were able to fit into the kitchen from Habitat Restore. People don't realize the rv-appropriate stuff you can find in those stores.
It's Dean! I have been subbed to Dean for awhile now. Such an awesome guy. If anyone deserves over an hour it's Dean. For those of you new to the game and don't know him or his channel , A; You should subscribe and B; take in what this guy has to say, he's the real deal. Safe travels :)
Thanks Dean 👍😎🚌 enjoyed it very much. Loved to hear you discuss the details of your bus conversation and seeing your School bus in more details😊 helps me with ideas on my conversation steps 😎⛰🌎thanks for sharing and safe travels
Very impressive features. Really like it. Best wishes!
Love Deans video. I’ve had to rearrange my expectations as my health took an unexpected dive approaching retirement. The last half dozen years haven’t been my best financially and in terms of mental health . Things like the Tinyhouse approach to life and some creative ideas to supplement my minimal early retirement pension have regenerated my spirits.
Listening to Dean’s enthusiasm problem solving makes me feel like I’ve found a bro, a kindred spirit. Thanks.
I cannot tell you just how much I’ve enjoyed watching your video about Felicity, so thank you for sharing. I’m the least likely person on the planet to ever be able to achieve anything like this at your level, so I’m just going to enjoy your travels vicariously via your social media. You have such a wonderful calm and articulate communication style, it was an absolutely pleasure to ‘meet’ you and hear about this amazing school bus conversion to your home. It’s late here in Australia, but I was hanging on your every word!
I love the cabinet color with the natural wood. Looks great
I love your home it’s beautiful and so cosy
Thank you for taking the time do carefully explain everything on your bus debating on a bus or van hopefully we will meet on day 😘
I love this bus and its simplicity. He has everything he needs to live in it full time and I absolutely love the separate shower/toilet idea. I would have shortened the kitchen counter to accommodate an apartment size fridge and pantry. Great and beautiful job!
Loved this! Course I feel silly, as I have contacted Dean via social media/email to ask him at least 2 of the questions he answered in this video haha. Was I a more patient person I could have just waited for THIS! I sincerely hope you do more in depth tours of some of the more well traveled skoolies! By that I just mean the people that have been doing it awhile, make it their lifestyle, and realize hey this doesn't work, lets change it. I find these types so helpful because they have tried what doesn't work so they are really good at telling you the things that do work but also WHY it doesn't work. I need the WHY, just how I operate lol. Thank you guys for another great vid!!
Well, I'm hoping this will save a lot of people a lot of questions! I kept saying I'd make my own tour like this, but here it is finally!
@@UncoolDean LOL I know I know I am a pain .. haha.
I absolutely love this guy 😂😂😂😂. What an awesome, detained, helpful video. Thanks for sharing!!
Great job Chris. Ive been following Dean before I discovered you. Love his bus! He literally is a very much younger version of me.
Nice guy, neat and clean and organised! Nice bus, but WOW detailed is the word!!!
Excellent design of your home,genius on how you thought out where you wanted everything! You are very talented young man thank you for sharing your thought process,I enjoyed the knowledge you have made me feel good listening to your confidence in your success in this home you built! Many blessings to you and happy adventures! Thank you very much for your positivity you have a five star home ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🏡🎼🎶✨🎉🏞
Thank you very much!
Very helpful. Thank you. You gave us great insights into challenges and solutions for day-to-day living I wouldn't have thought about on my own.
Great job on the shower build...just like regular home builds, you get the shower/tub in first, then build the walls around! Great idea with doubling up the curtains in the back leaving room for reflectix!
Thanks for showing us this video and sharing some pretty groovy ideas
I learned so much! Living in my motorhome going on 6 years now, eventually want to renovate a bus, and join the schoolies! Thank you for such detail!
I cant wait to start I got a couple more payments to pay off my shuttle bus skoolie convert!!!! I'm so excited and so scared.......but I cant wait to get started......
best of luck... me too...mostly. I'm waiting on the down pouring rain to stop. I got a 5th wheel frame. starting from the there
Awesome, detailed and entertaining video! Dean is one of my favorite nomads!
I'm totally in love with this whole bus build! Just incredible! Loved how long this video was !
Love it!!! Very nice. Congratulations:)
Wow, beautiful bus, I could sleep in that bed and be so comfortable. Lucky you have heat/AC.
Great video---long but enjoyable for those of us who are considering Tiny Living and all things Tiny---especially some of your specific experiencial details like the fridge is good for one but not great for more than one-----it helps for future planning for me. Hope all your travels are wonderful and filled with much happiness and safe travels.
my thought too. he changed my mind on what toilet to pick. great info. wish they'd all go that route with their videos, details ins outs of products
HE did a great job
This guy gave the best tour I’ve come across. So particular and intentional. Didn’t miss anything… great setup. Even his bed was made perfectly. I wish I could make my bed so well 😂
So much discipline.. military? Thanks for the tour! You gave us all great info and ideas! Awesome 👏🏼 👍🏼💪🏼
Booyah! Just the in-depth tour I've been hoping for. You're one of our greatest inspirations. Felicia's looking amazing!
Great vid! Thank you Dean and Tiny Home Tours, I learned a lot. I'm looking forward to starting my skoolie build journey. No doubt I will utilize the many informative videos available.
Very safety oriented... I like this
Awesome video it was long but very good use that on your build seminar lol 🇨🇦
What a pleasure to view this video! I love the time the builder/resident took to explain all the choices and investments he made. Such an awesome, authentic character. Not that most people could ever do what he's done!
Very nice build. His kitchen is very nice. He thought out this project before the build.
The details you’ve thought through and incorporated into your build are amazing. Curious if you’re still liv’n the skoolie lifestyle? 🚌
Incredibly clever van build. Brilliant job!
Definitely worth my time. Loaded with great info ..... Especially working around curves. Thinking outside the box. A+
Loved every single minute of your video. How I want to move to the USA and take a road trip in your bus. ❤❤❤
I may have already commented on this.........but here goes again. I absolutely love this van. I could have just said .........ditto! Not one thing I would change or add. Great job. I hope some day I can have one just like this........it would feel like home for sure. Thank you for sharing.
You are a very good designer/builder. I absolutely loved your skoolie. If I knew how (and was younger) I’d do it. Keep up the good work. Good luck with all your adventures
I have seen how someone used the refrigerator set to freezer, thus being able to make ice and then using a cooler for food and drinks. Always having ice you don't need to buy it and you have both. Great job! You have inspired me to possibly do a skoolie when I retire.
Nice build. Really well thought out about where things go, what he wanted & making it happen.
Thank you, I appreciate that!
Awesome bus, instructions, this bus sweat you well 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙏
Wow!! I love this build!! It’s a beautiful design and I honestly did not notice it was a long video because I was interested in how he did it!!
Cheers
P.S. love the air horn!!!!
Great vid, thx 😊
Dean, your School bus home is lovely! You can put a wire rack on the inside of the sink door for some light kitchen supplies, dish towels, food wraps, sponges, etc.
Your bus is gorgeous! If I was younger I would get a build. Enjoy!
I really love the pine look of your bus. Everything seems really well thought-out. I wish I had the skills to do a build like this...perfect! Thanks for sharing with us! Happy travels! (Jane)
Thank you for all the info. that you can't no unless you had experienced yourself. The length of your vid was fine, I wouldn't have learned as much if it had been shorter!!!!
great video and an excellent practical layout plan and fit out, beautiful ceiling boarding
. Like you say its all been done before and early campervans were refined over many years to be the most practical layouts possible in a small space so there is little point in re-inventing the wheel . Best design solution is to do exactly what you did and sit down and think about how you would use the space in everyday useage.
Many folk give way too much space to the kitchen area where you might spend 1/2 to 1 hour a day whereas you could be sitting in the bus,(maybe out of the rain, ) for up to 12 hours of a day ! You need to prioritize space according to how much time you spend in that space and how comfortable you want to be.
Always try to use a space for more than one purpose if possible to maximise the space you have especially if its a small bus or campervan.
Apologies for the hyjack buddy but I liked your approach and as an Architect it infuriates me how some folk are clueless about designing a practical tiny home solution and end up with an awful lounge/ sitting area where (,aside from the bedroom) , you can spend the most time when in the bus
It is amazing what I've discovered during the lock down. Thank you RUclips. Loved this video and it is long enough to be Informative and entertaining. What a great job he's done. Thank you!
I can't tell you how you both have inspired me...I am very touched by the woman of the house,...your courage has inspired me so much...to step out of fear, and into adventure..I have seen so many rebuilds, as In considering possibly traveling , and living in a RV, or a place like yours....I have never seen such a Beautiful interior design, until I've seen yours...I love your polka dot, whites, wood n black....I am immensely impressed by your attention to detail....I can see you doing interior design for smalls homes, tiny houses , Rvs n extended Vans....You are a Gifted designer...Thank you for your fabulous tour of your home...You will be in my prayers daily..., and I would love to contact you ,in the future...let me know if you are working at designing....I'm in SW Florida....n I'm giving so much thought, as I said to living n traveling in a rebuild..I need to research more....God Bless you...n maybe I'll talk to you one day....Take Care n Be Safe Family...💝💝🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great job. It's beautiful and practical
I did not think i would watch all the way through but an awesome entertainment super job. Learned a lot from this.
Great Build
and truly enjoyed how everything was built a certain way and why. I find myself skipping through the outside features on other video builds but I hung on to every word.. Beautiful Home💗💗Awesome Job!!!
Wow! You covered so many details that I have heard never covered, i.e. weight of top composting toilet to empty, condensation on linens if beds are level with windows, MaxAir vs Fantastic fan, quietness of mini split vs RV air conditioner, etc. These are tips which have me rethinking some items i had thought would be ideal. I love your bus and did an excellent job on construction.
Oh I love watching it. Welcome to Skoolie 101! Glad it’s long. It’s a pleasure to watch beautiful workmanship. So educational & I’m hooked learning about the details. Thank you for sharing. It’s piece of art coming from ur heart I can tell. Love love the Skoolie external decal WOW!!
Wow, you did such an awesome job! Perfect inside and out. 😀
Love this build. This was done 2 yrs ago but it's still a great build!
super tour! beautiful bus design
This is legit the perfect build for me personally. I love the separate shower and bathroom. The only thing I’d change to accommodate myself is I’d definitely route the urine into a black water tank and do a small roof raise for the shower. But in the end that’s like if I really, really wanted too. This bus is just beautiful and really perfectly built.
Best one so far for my needs. Long your detailed video at excellent pace fpr info and design. One of best ive seen. I m doing 2004 shuttle bus simple 14 ft floorspace for a effecient clean look. Yours is great
I love your schoolie ♡
I have an RV so wouldn't be doing a conversion, but I'm still interested in what's being done out there.
This is the nicest most well thought out build I have seen. To each their own, and I get the whatever works for you, but just like this guy, I wouldn't have a "home" without a usable shower. I get the need for a wet bath because of space. Had one in the boat but if you have the space to separate the shower and toilet room that would be the best way to go. (Opinion again of course). Well thought out heat and AC. It also looks like he thought out his weight distribution as well. Some of these people build heavy on one side for aesthetics but that's bad for tires and suspension. Someone was explaining their weight and said "there was 76 seats and it held 76 kids" so he wasn't worried. Yeah, but that wasn't all on one side.
Kudos to Dean on an exceptional conversion that seems to do it all!
