My husband , John, and I are very excited to find you on RUclips. We are Mrs. Seator's parents. I remember meeting you when she was moving to a new classroom and you returned to school to help her her even though you had graduated the previous year. Our best to you and Emily and your beautiful family.
Heyo! I was directed to your channel by Crystal Bowersox, of all people (buy her music, folks, she's AMAZING!). I'm just about to start building out a retired ambulance for full-time living. I expect at least a few tips, techniques, and ideas from the schoolie world will apply, so I'm looking forward to soaking in your content, both old and new. 👍
That's awesome! Yeah she came by and got some windows from me. Let me know if I can help in any way
Nothing GREAT comes without SACRIFICE!!.. But in the end? You're living the DREAM, Sir.. Nice to see you guys!!! Missed ya!!!
100%. And you can't give it. Everything happens for a reason .
I’m building a Skoolie right outside of Gallatin, Tennessee! That’s awesome
Congratulations! Living the dreams!!! Just finally threw in a mattress and moved in our bus last week and finishing on the road because it's been a year now. Not much differentfrom all builds, blood sweat, tears, thieves and vandals have all taken their toll on me, going to get a taste of the dream to keep me going on this journey. I will never give up, but it's a definite toll to do it all alone. So if it kills me, gonna get some miles on my beast, and some smiles on my kiddo.
Good for you! That's awesome! I totally respect that. I think getting a taste of bus life will give you the motivation to continue on the build.
These titles always scare me. However this video was empowering. I'm currently working on a bus and i'm getting a little intimidated. This video made me feel better. Thank you and looking forward to the content!
I get it. Bus life has so many faces. Ours is different than what you usually see online but I wouldn't change it. It's completely changed our life in everyway. Let me know if you have any questions. I'll share whatve I've learned.
@@BackroadPurpose You're gonna regret that offer!
🥳 wow 🤩 So much progress has happened in your life , very glad to see people doing things that keep them inspired , from ur Toyota FJ Cruiser adventures to where you now have a business being creative, thank you for sharing and letting us peek into your life once again 🙏
Thank you so much. As you've seen, it's been quite the journeys. It will continue but we pumped to see what happens!

hi guys we found you! Your home was a hit at the nashville show & really made the check it out on our channel.
Thank you so much! Yeah we were pretty busy that weekend but had such a great time
That’s awesome! I would like to come check it out. We are in the process of buying our bus now.
Good for you guys. The busses changed our lives entirely.
Dude, I'm so glad you're alive.
😂😂😂
I saw the video where you and your family moved into your bus a while ago and never saw you again. 😕
Glad to see things are going well.
Lol yeah man! Sorry about that. We'll alive and doing well! Thanks for watching!
Wow, you are really good. You can tackle any problem and follow through to completion. That is admirable. Great videos. Who do you use for insurance?
Awesome, glad to hear things are going well
Thank you! We are too. It's been a long few years
Blessings!!
I love when a dream becomes a lifestyle!
That's makes two of us! Thanks for watching!
Freaking awesome!! I’m currently in the process of my build. I wanted to be done in 8 months. I’m just about hit year 2 haha. RUclips lied to me about how fun, easy and cheap it would be. It’s been none of those things. Ok to be fair is been pretty fun at some points in the build. Happy you are doing what you love and clearly are very good at.
Lol I get it! I had a foolish idea of 3 months in the beginning. I just told a client 4 months. We'll see what happens. Let me know if you have any questions! I'll share what I have
@@BackroadPurpose I’ve actually got quite a few ideas from your videos! My biggest issue now is figuring out how I want to paint the monster. I took out a bunch of windows and put in residential. I believe I’m going to try to make it look like one of the hood Volkswagen hippy vans. Heck 4 months won’t be any big deal now. You are a seasoned pro.
Radical. Glad to help. This new build is going to be bananas. Man, the paint sprayer with oil paint was clutch. So happy on how it turned out. It's not show car but it's classy and simple and super easy to keep clean.
@@BackroadPurpose that’s a solid plan. I’ve debated going with a truck bed liner. Mainly because it will kinda hide some of the blemishes of the bus or maybe the lack of skill I have when painting haha
I just found y’all today so excited to see what y’all are doing and where you’re going :) best of luck with the future
Oh how awesome! Thank you so much!
We're actually building a skoolie and can probably use your help. Waiting to close a deal on it which will be our Dream home
So exciting! I hope the deal goes well for you! Shoot me an email and we can get a plan together for you guys!
@@BackroadPurpose I'll delete the other one once you email me so we can collaborate
I wrote you on Instagram. Don't know if I got the right one or if you got it or not
0:24 you my friend are an awesome young man. I’m just I’m flabbergasted I’ve always dreamed of something like this, my son and I once lived for a short time about a year or so and an old a 1986 mini Winnie, but the type of life that you’re living you are truly blessed and to have though what looks like a wonderful family just count your blessings and thank God and keep on doing what you’re done and if I ever win the lottery, I’m gonna be getting in contact with you, sir have a good one and I hope your business does well!!😄😇
Sir, I meant to tell you that we are fellow Tennesseans or volunteers. We live in Bethel Springs take care God bless.
You guys were in Saint Augustine! 26 sec mark. my town. Saint George street.
We were! Such a cool town!
Love what you do and hope to start the journey towards the same lifestyle.
I’m in St Louis and would love to help out with the new business/gain knowledge and skills. Would there be a best way to reach you?
Hey man! Thanks so much! Shoot me and email. It's in the description
calebslife@gmail.com
Need to know how you get the 120 volt out of the inverter to the power box
Good luck
Thank you!
I appreciate the honesty about the skoolie but hope you can appreciate mine: get rid of the music !!! It's loud and mostly not needed. Really ! 😠. Now keep up the good work. 👍
Noted! I try my best to equal out the sounds well but I think this time it was a bit too much
Where do you get insurance for the buses?
I have a question for you fine folks I have a mid bus conversion basically converted short bus I was wondering what the laws are for my family being in the back while traveling how's that work and very much appreciated in advance you gotta new subscriber in me
To my understanding. There needs to be a seatbelt per passenger on the bus.
@@BackroadPurpose so put seatbelts in the couch? Or do I need to add some bus seats if that's the case I didn't see any in your conversion lol guess I'm confused but I live in TX IL just black the windows out shouldn't have no reason to be pulled over I don't see the benefit of trying to make a tiny home if I need bus seats reinstalled I have living quarters in it now and done alot of work I would hate to remove a cabinet for a bus seat
Very nice video, I just want to ask from you that please adjust background music much quieter than your speaking voice. Don't setup the background music loud when your are talking in the video 🙏
Yeah I used new headphones on this video and got the audio levels wrong. Sorry about that.
I’m in the process of buying a bus, I’m looking at hiring out the build. Do you have a site yet to hire you?
Hey Brandon! I don't have site designated yo builds but you can email me at calebslife@gmail.com if you want to look into pursuing this.
about to graduate hs and this is the dream fs
Do it.
Where r u located I would hire you out also?
😘❤️👍
I have a vast construction, electronic engineering and mechanical background. Small business owner of 12 years. Serving Nashville and Midd Tenn. Give me a shout if you need any help as I myself go through this arduous process.
Nice! Good for you. I appreciate the offer. Its certainly a growing market and would love to have a list of people who could help.
Hey how much will you be charging?
Right now I charge hourly and have a pretty good idea on length of time for a build. This next build will take about 5 months for a full build out. calebslife@gmail.com is my contact if you're wanting more details!
Lose the music! It was so hard to concentrate on what you were saying, and the music really served no purpose.
Thanks for the insight.
❤️❤️it’s so much better! 🫶🏼
