In addition, I love the flushing toilet as i can't see myself using the composting toilet. Amazing build. Hope you continue to have many many more years of interactions with folks. Safe travels.

    Tha k you for sharing your home and build. Many clever things you did in it. Very clever indeed. I do like the favt that the wiring is labeled every 2 feet. Alot of people do not pay attention to that detail. And will make it very hard to fix if aa wire fails for so,e reason. I also loke how the wires are not in the walls and neatly hidden, but easily accessed for issues that may arise in the future. Water piping in the floor is a great idea. The way your home is set u9 you dint have to worry about pipes freezing and agin easily accessed for any issues that may arise in the future. The bays are himes for each item batteries and the solar power, heat heating and venting easily accessed for any future problems and can be fixed quickly and you can fit you body jn the engine bay. Which is nice in case of rainy weather or cold. Your protected fro, the elements for the most part. The interior is gorgeous. The bathroom is very pretty amd super functional. Living area is very comfy. A nice spot for a nap as well as the passenger seat in front. I'm sure you made your wife very happy with that seat. Bedroom, is great and you have so. Uch storage. Which is uncommon with bus life. You guys did a great jib with your build. I'm jealous but in a good way. Again Thank you so much for sharing. I hope one day when we get an rv or timey home we wil meet. Stay safe stay healthyamd above all live deeply and always give thanks. Enjoy and make some awesome memories!!!!!

    Regarding the gas cooktop, commercial kitchens are moving to induction cooktop because they are safer, provide more temperature control, and don't pollute the air. Something to think about....

    The bathroom as part of the hallway is inspired. Soooo much better than cramming oneself into a claustrophobic airplane pod of a lavatory, especially for folks with extra dimensions either upwards or outwards--LO! The Murphy bed/desk is also brill. I'm all about functionality over unneeded luxury. What good is a king sized mattress if you only sleep on a fraction of it?

    Actually just saw a commercial restaurant with nothing but 10 induction cookers lined up in a row so 3 people could be cooking at the same time…still had ovens and a salamander. Makes more sense not producing all that excess heat. I have induction and would never go back to gas.

    Let's be real for a min, if you have your own business and the money to do so (third bus), dang near anything is possible. Not everyone has this ability to do a project this big, also, it's really not that easy to find places to put a big bus like this that's not for local businesses. Overall, it's still a good build.
