This is the best family of 4 setup I've seen yet. I'm partial to split bathrooms (so that both halves can be used simultaneously), but otherwise this is exactly what I'd imagined for my family, and so beautifully executed.
Thank you!
Superbad!!! These guys are fantastic
I’ve never understood a bath in a toilet room.
But there's no partition. Imagine you doing number 1 or 2 and your daughter taking a shower at the same time. Not good .
Such nice finishes.
I've seen 100's of skoolie builds, I love this one better than ANY of the other ones I've seen.
Well thank you so much!
Really thought out!!!!!!!!
I'm in love with this bus but unfortunately can't afford it. But wishing the best travels to whoever buys it and may your travels be blessed 🙌 and for you the sellers may your best lives 🙏 be the best for your lives ❤
Very nice build. Very clean looking and spacious. The center door is nice and the paint scheme is beautiful. The only thing I would've done differently is put the bathroom in the middle of the bedrooms separating them so you wouldn't have to walk thru the bunk area from the master bedroom to use the bathroom.
[ M. Bedroom ]>bathroom
I absolutely love this bus. I pray one day I can afford to get me a bus for me and my family. I dream of having this kind of freedom to go wherever we want n just be free to live how we want where we want. I feel so lost n stuck in my current situation as soon as I get the money I will have skoolie like this with a couple changes like I gotta have a wood burning stove and a working office/school station everything else is amazinf
This is hands down the best build I've ever seen.
Love the amount of counter space!
It's great in there
YAY a dish-draining cupboard as we have in Finland!! I love your Skoolie!
Chuck, your narration and videography is really well done.
Thank you so much for doing the tour of the bus. Shows the true quality of work you and your team have been doing. Truly amazing
Thank you mark!
Introduction kept me for the ENTIRE walk through....
Attention to detail is everything & U certainly achieve it in this 🚌.
Really really really love THIS!!!!!!!!
That is an amazing build! My father and I are looking for an rv but this looks like a home and a lot more comfortable than any rv I’ve looked at!
I have to agree, even though there are sooooooo many great components, the coat hangers at the entrance!
I mean it when I say this is a home, truly, when you fulltime in a bus, it can be, a horrific, but the phnominal workmanship is breatless, this is what anyone would dream of! I salute you, your crew, and thank you for sharing this masterpiece Skoolie!!!!!
If I won the lotto I’d buy that bus, superb job as always Charlie and team 👏🏻👏🏻
Haha me too 😭
This is the Standard for sure! Stunning
I like that drying rack for for bricks &mortars also. The coat hooks....nice. Pocket doors, hidden handles, hidden tv ( should swivel once out)
Layout perfect. Door at bathroom area perfect
Hey Chuck, sure do hate what's happening to Lyss. Man RUclips and there algorithms 🙄. Keep up the good work brother, I'm surprised your not covered up with work. I think you do great work you and your team. Folks don't have to take my word for it, just look at Lyss's schoolie. I wish I had the money, I'd dam sure have you build me one. Keep up the good work !!
Gorgeous!!!!
this build is so amazing! dude yall just blow my mind at all the details and insanely creative work yall do. thanks for the tour.
you're welcome! i dont know how we do it
That is awesome! I might just have to rethink my build plan. I don't need bunks and need a king bed. So I would open up the rear. And then I would change the front to have a swivel captains chair for the front passenger and a love seat behind it.
Great job! Love the couple who built it, Chuck you crushed it! This is my favorite bus conversion.
Thanks a bunch!
Would love to see some conversion videos for a more limited budget. Beautiful bus.
Chuck I learn so much from your videos. Have a home in Oklahoma I am going to sell. At first was thinking about a box truck but love the skoolies. When house is sold will have enough money to have someone build it, was going to do it myself but it would take me forever. Love your great workmanship. Keep up the fantastic videos. ALAN
thank you alan! means a lot to me
You guys do great work on converting buses. I'm taking notes. Thanks for sharing!
Wow!! What a beautiful converted bus!!
The best build I,ve ever seen. Just fantastic.
Amazing build. Would love something like that and go on the road for a year.
The best schoolie i ever seen
шкафы без ручек, очень хорошая идея. обеденный стол, из двух частей, выглядит тоже отлично. внутри светло. телевизор занял место+ электрический привод...просто игрушка, потребляющая энергию. замечу что внешний блок сплит системы, выделяет очень много тепла, летом, и очень много холода зимой, не место ему под автобусом. не нравится, что у мебели острые углы. место над водителем пустует, там поместится кровать, с лифтом. удачи с постройкой автодомов!
I am in love with this. This would be perfect for me ugh I have to keep hope I will find one just like it or get it built that way 😢
First video I watched was of the amateur built bus. Your work is very good and obviously good. You can immediately see the differences.
My parents have been RV living with various setups for 30yrs. 12yrs straight in their 1st setup.
Dads clever enough to take an older 25yr old leaky 5th wheel rv and turn it into a great rig to live in the mountains over the summer. (Sleeps 3. My tiny frame fits fine on open couch)
He just installed a split unit and pulled out the roof ac. Minisplits are awesome for RVs done right!
Nice compost loo in the bus. I'm all for getting rid of the black tank and using a cassette for smaller rvs used occasionally for weekends. (With a flush hose to dump)
Hubby finally found out he is interested in RVs but we have seen so many RV failures by the big manufacturers.
Seeing great work that withstood real use is nice! Have to learn how to fix them before committing to it because you're always going to have something to repair, replace or maintain!
Id buy a used build off of your clients!
WoW! It’s absolutely gorgeous!
By far for me, one of the best builds. Beautiful, functional and cosy!
This bus is absolutely amazing it’s beautiful just amazing thank you for sharing it with us and I hope you get the right person to buy it they would definitely appreciate it
Great job! Very creative!
Great detailed tour of a very cool home on wheels , I so want one .
I'm smiling about those fantastic recipes! Gracias
Excellent workmanship and well thought out. Thank you
Beautiful tiny home
What a beautiful bus!! Great work you and your crew did.💓💙
Thank you!
What an amazing setup!
Absolutely gorgeous bus. One of the best I have ever seen. Wonderful video. 😊
I been waiting to see the washer dryer there it is omg I love this ..
i love this bus!
New favorite build ✨ beautiful well thought out work. Going to use lots of these ideas in my build 🙏🏻
What a Beautiful bus home. I love how you used every part of the bus nothing wasted. It's so bright inside too.Amazing !! 🚃🚌🇨🇦👍
Thank you so much 😀
❤@Bus converted. @Beautiful 🥰😍
Wow that's definitely my favorite bus by far. Good job I no that family is loving that bus life in that...
Awesome build.
SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL I LOVED EVERYTHING HONESTLY ❤❤❤LOVED IT
Wow, this is so much better than a mass market RV. It’s beautiful. I personally wouldn’t be willing to travel with my family without having seatbelted safe seating for all passengers, though.
There were seatbelts for 5 passengers on the front couch
@@ChuckCassadyYT Facing sideways in a seatbelt isn’t actually safe.
Looks rock solid and tasteful. Well done!
thank you!
I love these style of campers . They look better made than off the shelf campers .❤❤
Glad you like them! i agree
WoW such a cool build love it 👍
This is about perfect for my family. I definitely have to hire you when I'm ready to go !!!!
Great build and video.
Very nice unit !
Thank you for sharing it !
Thanks for watching!
SO BEAUTIFUL, THIS GUY LOOKS LIKE A YOUNG MANDY PATAMKIN🌻
What's a wee boost? 😂 you got me... was like "🤔 ...ohhhh🤦♀️" also "everything on a dimmer" is a literal song of mine and shall always be said in song 🎵 evErythinggg awwnnn A dimmERRR🎵
Always on a dimmer
I love it. But i would of had the bathroom between the bunkbed n master bed... and the night stands in master would of been from the floor up! That would be my build. And idk the couch going all the way to the wind shield. I think i would of turned the end face front. Like and actual motorhome front cab. But all and all beautiful.
Love it it's really a masterpiece
I love you bus ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love everything about this.. except I'd switch the bunk room and the bathroom
I'm definitely emailing her about it! Gorgeous build
Do it up!
This is the best looking School bus that has been turned into an RV that i have ever seen it looks like it came from the manufacturer the paint is fabulous it's breathtaking it's so beautiful and those outside mirrors are gorgeous where did find those @ i haven't seen any mirrors like those ever over all you guys out did yourselves i just love it it looks like an RV front straight from the manufacturer.
Love this!
Thank you
That's beautiful!! Would love to travel around in that!! 💜
It really is!
I love the bathtub
Ok...who was that laying on the master bed? All the sudden, "gone." 😂😂 That main door where it's located, is awesome. I wanted a motorhome but now i want a skoolie
Very nice!
Heya! Seriously appreciate all the invaluable videos you're producing! You mentioned they are settling into a stationary life and parting ways with this beauty. It's it still available/ where do we look for it? Thanks!
Hated to miss your premiere, but my brother and I had to wrap up a few details from my Dad's estate. Shared a meal and then got stuck at my brother's house due to a monsoon storm.
Wow!!
Nice Work
Thank you! Cheers!
Fabulous bus. There definitely is a "Charlie:Chrome Yellow" design that is unmistakable! So much thought and experience!
Funny I grew up in Co and now live in Seattle(ish).
Matter of fact both my parents drove school bus for Adam's County District 12. My dad part time as he worked for the railroad. He determined we moved to Wa after a visit he loved it so much. I think it was growing up in Kansas he craved the green!
Bought many buses from that district
A Stunning build 😍🤩😎
thank you so much!
You do nice work, Charlie!
thank you kindly!
Your bus is in my top 2 favorites!!
What's the other one?!
@@ChuckCassadyYT ruclips.net/video/J-w-QvR2MQg/видео.html
Great looking and the bus too. Nice looking place.
thank you!
Chuck I love this bus
this is better than any made RV made.
Absolutely Gorgeous Build Charlie

Beautiful, Cozy, Excellent, Exquisite & Inviting... A Lovely Home💯🎯✔‼‼‼‼😘😍
From Quebec Canada , really nice bus .
Awesome something that I would dream of doing One day.. But I 76 and i think it's still a dream Best with this build out from Kauai
Almost a perfect conversion. If I had to nitpick, I'd probably go with a permanent RV style dinette so I wouldn't have to move any furniture around every dinner time. I would also replace the televator with a manual mechanism (fewer things that can break, no wait time for the TV to rise).
Very nice bus, clean build for sure, well thought out and executed plan for a schoolie, and the diesel pusher is a big plus, I absolutely love the extra windshield, BRAVO! Problem is the cost of the build usually exceeds the value, I mean I have seen some asking prices that go over what you can purchase a nice older Prevost for, yes that is two totally different kinds of buses, but it is worth mentioning. Of course you can go places with this bus that most wouldn't dare take a Prevost. With a build, you are paying dollar for dollar for all the systems, whereas a well maintained professional conversion depriciates over time to a more affordable option, and most are well appointed high end builds.
I might also add, that the maintenance of a Prevost is probably double or triple the cost of a schoolie, but any bus will cost a lot to maintain, and most people just buy these, build them and then drive them until something breaks, when you should start with making the bus dependable at the beginning, which includes wheel bearings, grease, brakes, fluid, oil and fuel filters, radiator clean or replacement, hoses, and belt replacement, of which it is a good idea to keep extras on the bus, along with tools, for just such a breakdown. This will ensure a good start on your journey, and less chance for problems to arise. I watched one build that went on forever, and they never started with the maintenance end, wound broke down not far from thier house, a quick patch fix, and they broke down again, when this all could have been avoided.
you got that right, there will always be expenses!
It's a weird mind trip when you show shots of the driver's seat, suddenly cluing me in that I'm looking at a vehicle and not a stationary house
awesome bus
Thank you very much!
Nice but there are a few things I would change. First off, switch the bathroom and the bunk room. Closer to the "master" bedroom is always better and you don't have any smells from the bathroom infiltrating the kitchen. Second, turn the master bed sideways and have the side tables next to the head of the bed, NOT the foot of the bed. And third, NO TV allowed and a separate washer & dryer.
Thanks for the tips!
So excited to see the growth of your channel over the last several months. ♥️ You deserve the best and all the success in the world. I hope Norm Abram stumbles across your channel and sees the likeness to “This Old House”, I’m sure he would appreciate it. Your channel takes me back to weekends on the couch watching it over a bowl of cereal with my dad. ☺️🤍
That would make my life!!
Love it 💞.
I'm glad you like it
Finally found one that satisfies the husband! This build is so off the hook sano dope. LOVE IT! Emailing now. Great great build......want it without the bunks though...rather have a nook for an office. We are in Salida, CO...dang I love this bus!!!!!!!! I want it....throw us a price brotha.
Their contact info is in the description!
Awesome
A family of four lived in this for awhile and it still looks brand new! It’s gorgeous! I imagine it’s already sold?
Hands down clean lines & love the simplicity of this build. Master bedroom how in the world does one change the sheets & bedding, it’s so tight & night stands at the foot of the bed on each side just seems backwards-Not sure why that wasn’t incorporated in the head space on either side of the bed…? It’s all so lovely obviously this is one of your gifts.
there isnt enough width to have the nightstands where the mattress is, its hard to tell, otherwise we would have put them there
@@ChuckCassadyYT Sure;) You did. what worked. One of my favorite Bus builds is your dear friend, Alyssa’s
Hi Chuck…we think your great also!👏
Thank you!
Hey they got a WSU magnet! Go Cougs!
