Hey Guys!!! I'm a San Jose State Grad and guess what??? I used to DRIVE 304!!!!!! I am so glad you guys bought it and turned it into a lovely home! You're living my dream!!!! Enjoy the heck out of her! She was a good bus!
Wow that is so rad! I shared this with Sam and Katy and they are very excited to hear that. It's kind of wild to think about the lives these buses had before we converted them and the dozens of people who drove them and thousands who rode in them! It's so cool to hear that you drove this bus and you're right it's a great bus. When are you building yours?!
Yeah! What a small world! I drove buses while going to school and ended up with a 14year career before doing something different! Was just helping a friend of mine with his Prevost on Monday! Working on the wife but I’m going to do an MCI or PD4106 for more room! Every bus has a story!!!!
I've never really seen a bus I would want to live in full-time.....until now. You all did an amazing job and clearly take great pride in your home.
It's funny that building a bus to avoid natural disasters when possible was what popped into your head. I live on the Georgia coast & every hurricane season, it's batten down the hatches & go where it's safe. I started thinking of going
tiny & mobile, when my last child was in his 2nd year of college. I spent time checking out all of the options but decided a 40' activity bus was what I'd need. I knew I wanted to be off grid capable, but I also knew being a traveling crafter of most woodworking items, I'd need more space for tools & reclaimed wood. So I started reading and watching all the bus builds, collecting ideas. Next year my house goes on the market, the bus gets bought & the build will begin. 😊
Alright! Hope it goes well!
So luxurious and comfy. You can grow old with this beauty. Thank you for sharing your sweet, magnificent home. ❤️
Wow --- so many of the appliances are FULL size, that galley kitchen is so spacious; what a fabulous build-out of a school bus 🚌 !
Dang - nice cockpit --- looks like Sam is ready to take-off into outer space 🚀 !! And, that sweet flip around screen - that goes from day (work) to night (viewing) 💝
Very beautiful and incredibly well thought out. 💝🙏💝 defiantly a beautiful home for your family! Congratulations and Thank You for sharing your home with us! 💝🙏💝
One of the best. The dog drinking was adorable and then we saw her face and oh my! Super fun bus and family
That’s the nicest bus I’ve ever seen and I’ve been watching bus builds for a couple of years!
As a Millennial, I approve this message 😊 I'm working on building mines next. I think we are overly tired of working a 9 to 5 and ready to retire early.
I was a teeny bit worried about alienating my fellow millennials with the title...but I shouldn't be. We get it haha.
Millennials are soft, nothing like baby boomers that worked hard and helped the country’s economy more than any other group
I’d be interested where / how you bought ur bus how many mi?
PLEASEEEEE yesssssss as an 80’s Baby IM READY!!!!!!!!! Beeemmmmm me up!
@MobileDwellings 5:09. The bus is a Millennium !
This man understands a happy wife = Happy life

One of my favorite skoolies so far and I've seen a lot. Well done!
Wow, thank you!
Ditto. VERY well done. I've seen videos of full-size (55-foot) conversions that didn't look this spacious or well thought out.
Nice Clean Build
well made video, one of the few I’ve watched all the way through.
I’ve lived nomadic life since 2012. I love this lifestyle
Aw nice glad you liked the build and the tour. You're a true veteran of the nomadic lifestyle. That's 10 years!
Beautiful bus. Very impressive. Love the crate for the pupper! What a cute doggo! Your tiny home on wheels ticks off everything on my list except for the gas stove. But to each his own. I just think it’s the greatest. You all did an awesome job. Congratulations. I especially love the mini split. It’s something being used more and more. Glad to see it’s being utilized rather then those crazy big things you usually see! Many happy, safe travels! Vaya con Dios!!
Absolutely love everything about this beautiful bus home. So spacious & cozy & love how little nooks & areas were dedicated to spices, teas, appliances, etc. i could be oh so happy living in there. Thx for sharing your gorgeous space!
Great work, Great passion. ENJOY your life and let your ride be safe, no matter how many wheels you will use to move. (I am riding electric unicycles so know that one wheel is enough)
Love it! You two are adorable together! 🤗
Millenials know how to build some stuff!! This one turned out pretty amazing, Justin. Considering you were a firefighter a couple years ago and didn't really know what you were doing, to now having built two buses, way to go. I think you have this bus building thing pretty well down at this point. Thanks for all the great build vids. What's the next build going to be???
Glad you appreciate them. I am actually quite proud of this bus. It turned out really tight! As for the next build...I don't have anything in the works yet but we'll be settling back into our home soon and transitioning Nova into kindergarten. I want to build something...I've got a lot of ideas of course!
@@MobileDwellings
You should be proud of this build. You did great work.
@@MobileDwellings It won't last. you'll see how difficult it'll be to raise a kid in it. The novelty will wear out. So, just enjoy it because it'll get old as you get older 😱🤪🤔😂
Firefighters are some of the best builders, electricians, and trades people out there so that’s not surprising at all how nice the bus build turned out. It looks like he’s built 50 buses so far as nice as this one turned out so hopefully he keeps building!! We need good builders like Justin! Can’t wait to see what he does next!!
Absolutely the most beautiful bus build I have seen yet. Great video, thank you!
You bus home is beautiful, i love all the nice clean lines and how you have made such good use of the space , the kitchen area and the arched sliding doors are the best 👌 😊👍💕💕💕
Knowing that you own a Honda Element says it all, mate! Keep it great! And of course,
GREAT BUILD!!!
Haha so true
It really turned out beautiful!! I totally missed that cool desk area being built!!
Iss the Space,Beautifully built,calming sensation of the Home for me‼️🌌💜
I love what you did with the bus. The only thing different for me I would want a bigger shower. So I would make a smaller counter other than that everything looks great you guys did a good job.
Awesome build.
Comfy, cozy, perfect!
WOW the work you did to achieve such a beautiful space just for you is wonderful. I would live in it any day. Great work
Really beautiful skoolie!
Gorgeous, fun couple and magnificent home wowww 👏👏
Its so ideal to have a home bus, being close to workplace and traveling 💕💕 so perfect
I love the layout, the designated spaces for each “room,” and the equal amount of storage for each of you. :) I could easily see myself living in this full-time!
Great Job! Really feels like home!
wow! you have done an amazing job love it
Very well done and cozy!
Brilliant build! One of the best.
I love the colors of your bus😊!
I love the schoolie. Great use of space.
I love your bus conversion! I from San Jose so I'm very familiar with San Jose State!
I noticed that your knives on the magnetic holder. I had mine on a magnet for years. I see you have the Victorinox 8 inch chefs knife, I have the same one! Just a little tip: it's safer to keep the blade points down and edges away (which you've done) in case you ever fall toward the knives. You will automatically without thinking throw your hands toward the wall so best not to have the points up!
Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!
This is amazing. Literally the only change I would make is more batteries, and instead of the cell signal booster I'd add a Starlink to have an internet connection anywhere. Then I can use my phone through the wifi, and also my laptop can connect to the internet. This is 100% inspiration.
Beauty Bus guys!!! Love it
Love this build, and great video!
Awesome job!!!
Sweet build Guys . U both look super happy . Cheers to truly living this life 💗
Overall, a nice layout for your bus. Well thought out and executed. I like your portal passage way doors. Not a fan of your toilet choice however. But I am old and cranky. Your choice of using a shorter pusher bus was genius and a very good choice. Much better maneuverability and you can access many more parking areas and tighter streets and parking lot driveways. Looks like your still sorting out your mini split heat/cooling system. It will be interesting to see what you like and don’t like after a year or two and what future changes you will be making with your lessons learned and experiences.
Just a thought, you're probably going to want a different hitch setup for your car. Something that lifts it off the ground, because every mile you tow it, that's one less mile you have on your car tires and you'll rack up miles on the odometer as well. Maybe a small flatbed for the car.
So beautiful love this build!
Beautiful home guys 💙watching from Dublin
Beautiful home.
Such a beautiful home!
Enjoyed the tour! Thank you for sharing
A really beautiful bus…and the solar!😮😊
so much solar!
Maybe try getting a trailer to pull your SUV. That way your not putting mileage on it and your tires last longer. Great build!!
Amazing job love the set up
Great use of space, comfortable enough for anyone to live in for years. It something I hope you hold on to the do future vacations even though you may have a house. Like that you had normal size appliances too . Choice of fridge was unusually great. If there was anything more one could ask for there, would be a clothes washer (but then that would be a house now🤔😁)
a really beautiful and thoughtful build. this is literally how i see my bus/van/tiny home. :)
Glad you like it!
Such an awesome home. I would love to build something like it for myself one day.
Such a well organized and well thought out bus!!!! Kudo to you!👍👍
Excellent build, 👏😁
You have an awesome 👌bus home!!!! Love it!
