#buslife #shortbusconversion #miniskoolie
That‘s an amazing summary of cool short Skoolie. These Skoolies are inspiring me for my Skoolie 👍😊
On the Lola bus...those faux tin tiles are approx 24 x 18 inches and are almost 20.00 each at Home Depot or Lowe's and I'm sure all major stores online. But these are a molded plastic and come in several colors and designs. They are very pricey so that's why you always see just a backsplash or small corner lol!! I found a 3D wallpaper that was identical for half the cost and painted it in a metallic copper for my rv's ceiling in the bedroom. It weighs nothing and after a top coat of clear super gloss. ...it looks and feels just like the expensive tin.
These wallpapers are sold everywhere and come in thousands of textures and designs. What a perfect solution if watching the weight on a bus, van or rv build 😊
Great tip! Thank you for sharing!
After looking at the price of a Tundra+flatbed+custom or 4wheel camper build, then the prices of the Mitsubishi Fuso Canters, we’re realize the space for the dollar of a mini bus is unbeatable! Researching which are easiest to 4x4 convert and most reliable, etc. Thank you for this compilation! Seeing all the layouts sparks the imagination! :)
I’ve found great feature ideas, enjoyed the selection and would for sure like to see more.
Hello & Good Morning from Kentucky : Its amazing how I just saw this website of yours and I finally decided to convert a Short Bus. So sitting here having coffee watching your video. I had a 1952 GMC Bus one time but it was in such bad shape and needed so much I sold it and am now getting a Short Bus. Can hardly wait. I Subscribe & Liked and will be watching and will check out all the people on your Instagram. Thanks Terry
Ooooh I’d love to see how your bus turns out!
Saved this video. I really enjoy watching Skooliana, Leave Her Wild, and Ninth Element.
Omg Tiff you do look like a young Audry Hepburn. Your such a cutie, hey and I know that you know your husband has an amazing radio voice or The voice to do Amazing animal or space narration. You guys are awesome hope to see more content of your journeyz/adventurez. 😎 I love your new bus.

Great picks! Also, you resemble a young Audrey Hepburn.
Now I want to watch Breakfast at Tiffany's! lol

Shes does haha
Several years ago I worked for the forest service and part of my job was to travel to a counterpart's area and help her repair bear damage. We were stalked by a black bear once and she was afraid of being attacked. There was a warm winter, a blight on the trees that normally provided food for the bears and they had attacked several people. They were also protected and we were not allowed to carry bear spray or anything that might harm the bears. I got her a couple of air horns after I was at a sporting event where someone kept hitting one and I realized how annoying they are. She said she would pull up to the area she was getting samples from, get her pack ready, hit the air horn, walk the trail, maybe hit it again and never saw another bear while in the field. You can get a pack of two cheap. Not sure how well they would work with grizzly bears, but black bears sure run away. (so does anything else though.)
Great video. Always love seeing bus conversions big or small. Very well put together. As always be safe and thanks for sharing.
I had the honor to be in both Fern the bus and Always home last weekend at the Grand Rapids, MI RV show. Loved both but had a hard time leaving Fern, talked to the owner for several minutes. Great guy, also I would love to live in any of these wonderful little homes.
Thanks so much! As a short skoolie owner myself I thought I had seen all the cool skoolies but at least half of those were new to me!
Very nice presentation. Gave me some needed inspiration re: how to eventually improve my own shorty bus, which has spent the last few years in storage. I live in what may resemble 'a tiny house/cabin' now, but feel ever more the urge to get on the road. Thanks for sharing.
One easy way to do bug screens (I did this on an SUV): Cut a thin 1/4”-1/2” wide strip of the hook side of a long Velcro strip and stick it around the window frame. Find a fabric store that carries tueling (the mesh fabric that little girl’s tutu’s are made out of). It gives/stretches a bit and comes in different hole sizes and colors (you can match the outside paint of the bus). Smaller holes = less bugs and probably sticks to the Velcro hooks better. Just press the tueling into the hooks on the Velcro and it stays very nicely. Trim to fit and make sure not to get tueling with glitter in it - it gets EVERYWHERE!!!
NomadicMovement
Thanks for showing the short buses.
I saved this video to my “RV tips” folder. I especially loved the last one with the tin tile on the bathroom walls. Always did like the idea but putting it in the bathroom was genius!! Tiling is ok but too much work and we probably all know the drawbacks!! Thank you for posting this video with theee great ideas.
Stumbled across, watched, liked and subscribed....love the channel and this Top 10!
On to look for more Skoolies, big and small, plus everything Inbetween!
Greetings from a Swede in the UK! 👋🏻🇸🇪🏴
Glad you found us!! Thanks for the sub
that table in @thewhiteelephantx is half custom. I saw his conversion video and he explained it was store bought, the top was not suitable, so it was replaced with the slab.
nice compilation and the twin buses are rad
Loved your short bus conversation selections.......I had seen a couple but most I have not seen. I mostly stay on RUclips mostly so I need to checkout Instagram more often. Love y'all's bus conversation. I want to convert a short bus but want to include a bathroom with a shower & potty space in it. Thanks all the cool ideas Tiffany. Safe travels and WAR EAGLE!!! :-)
Great vid, Tiff! Some wonderful work has been done making these personal and functional, and waaaay cool. I have a shorty conversion myself, The Big LeBUSki, and it's fully outfitted as well. I still plan on putting solar up top with a half deck. I'm an artist as well (@cmaggiostudio) so I will be painting a mural outside at some point. Safe travels to all!
My wife wants our bus to be your bus twin. She just loves watching your videos.
great vid, also note on the bears, as I have lived in alaska, and have stood away from a wild black bear that walked into my camp, and my ex landlord being an advid hunter, black bears are a bit more dangerious than a grizzly, because a glizzy will false charge ( unless there is a cub near by) but a black bear will not., but otherwise they try to stay away from humans if they know their around
I'll be starting my build next week of a shuttle bus. Thanks.
This is a fantastic video, so many cute and unique styles to help with ideas. You two have really done a great job of making videos for those of us in decision mode before we make the leap of a conversion. I've been dreaming of an extended international solo travel and instead of the stress of finding a hostel/ hotel at every location I think this is the simplest way to go, you two rock!!!. Thank you& big hugs
First time watching this channel. Great job! I got some great ideas! You’re super cute and well spoken. Super enjoyable to watch. Thanks!
Awesome video! Love, love, love! I’m just addicted to bus builds!
Great vids.
Bears are fine, just give em their space.
I spent part of the summer on one of my properties in Alaska. After I had been camping on it for about a week I found a den 150’ from where I was camping under a tarp. As I moved to look inside the den a bear huffed at me from within... so I backed away and left it alone. Didn’t move my campsite, no need, had he wanted to eat me he could have when I approached his den. I never saw him, but the pilot bringing in mail saw him on the beach less than half a mile south from my land, a couple days later a neighbor saw him less than a quarter mile north of my land, and he tore a deer out of another neighbor’s smoker (why would anyone use a wooden smoker in brown bear territory?)
Also saw a couple of year old black bears tear apart a plum tree in Ketchikan this summer... got photos with my iPhone but there wasn’t much light and they aren’t that great... as the cubs left down the hill I heard their mother call for them from up the hill a little ways...
Bears are awesome, just remember that their allowing you your peace one second doesn’t mean that if you bother them they won’t rip you to pieces in the next second....
The more i watch these videos. The more i want to buy a skoolie 😁😎❤👍🐿
Totally awesome referrals. I will be following all of them. Appreciate you taking the time to do this video.
I love the look of live edges, but oh the weight! I love #9.
Carry bear spray! And maybe a rifle! Bears love huckleberries!
In #6, those are just shelf brackets.
Lola is the bus that made me consider a bus conversion instead of a stationary tinyhouse! And I'm pretty sure that she's a local... you guys are awesome, I love your videos, you've given me lots of excellent tips!
I'd say 'buy land' and - where permitted - park your bus on it, live in it and travel whenever you get the itch. That's probably what I should have done instead of building a place AND keeping a bus in storage which, as you would guess, costs storage fees.
Nice review...would actually like to see you make this a regular series. After watching the Top 10, I wanted to see more.
Reviews such as your's help bus rookies like myself avoid wasting so much time on conversion-watching of less-than-satisfactory builds.
Additionally, I could appreciate Top10 lists of buses that are slightly larger. The small to medium builds are what intrigue me (probably as they are the types I may be able to eventually afford!). Your review style was refreshing.
Thank you so much for taking your time to share
Very creative on the 🚌 buses
These are all beautiful buses.
Thank you for revealing them.
So much information. Love it. I know its a long bus but bus life nz is such fun. Keep posting and maybe I'll have a skoolie too.
As teenagers my brother and I were stalked by a huge mountain lion while hiking in the black hills of South Dakota. I just happened to see/ sense movement out of the corner of my eye . Silent through the woods he had the high ground advantage also
42,4001......Your're welcome..lol. I'm hooked
Love her picks but was surprised she didn't mention Angry Pickle. Needs Honorable Mentions.
Great video. Thanks for putting all this work into compiling this list. We are a fam of 4 wanting the bus life. First big decision is what size bus to get and how far will we take the conversion. Can it be done simply at first to get us in it and on the road quickly as opposed to finishing a home on wheels first and then going. Love your chamnel
Thank you! Absolutely! A lot of people do what I would call a light conversion, move in, and make improvements on the road. Maybe I should do a light conversion countdown video. Would that be interesting? Definitely get on Instagram to find builds. There is a really broad range of awesome examples out there!
4 cots or 4 hammocks, a camp stove, a cooler, and porta pot for when you can’t wait til the next gas station... that’s all you NEED to get rolling... modify/add on later...
Rolling Vistas yes the light conversion countdown would be great. Thank you. In order to work on it while moving around would you recommend getting solar as a first thing so I can plug in power tools or getting a generator?
Rick Sanchez C137 yes! Super simple camping set up. Plus a tent to stay in once the work inside the bus starts. Lol.
CameronSharpPottery
Construction plastic and masking tape... to divide the space, part for living in and part under construction.
Don’t forget a wet/dry vac.
Adventuring with Lola was the bus that made me think I might want to live in a bus. It's just so cute and I like the idea of getting rid of most of my stuff to travel. I love ya'll's videos, they're so helpful and educational to me for the whole process.
Running into a Grizzly is completely terrifying..
This is great but I get so discouraged because I havent found many stories of people who do this alone. I'm happy you mentioned Lola. Know more folk?
My dream 💭🚐....Wow, ALL such gorgeous busses. Every bus- home needs a dog too 💕🐕 (or cat 😊)
Hopefully next summer we are gonna start our skoolie with our kitties ❤ but very worry about how they will do since they are indoor cats!
.
Sooo many buses !!. Loved it. Thanks for sharing. :)
the brackets for the table on green bus and us you can also get when stores like Walmart and target are doing remodels for free
Love love love this! Thank you for sharing.🌸🌸🌸
wow this is a really thorough and well thought out summary. thanks so much
These are great. Are there any that have a washer/dryer?
The Bodie bus is exactly like mine.
I like your shirt, I gotta fit fishing stuff, guitar and amp, kayak, mountain bike.
Thank you so much!!! OMG I loved all of your picks (no pun intended). Only wish they all had RUclips accounts since I don't have Instagram. Again, thank you!🙏💖
Love your choices :)
You need to check out Wonder Boom Shuttle bus... Nice nice nice
Walmart sells adjustable screens that fit perfect. $6
Thank you so much for this video! My husband and I will be starting our short bus conversion next summer (the bus we want to buy will retire at the end of next school year). We have already started gathering some free building material such as pallets, cabinet doors, plywood, etc. We figure we might as well start preparing now. Since we have a year before actually getting our bus, do you have any advice on what kind of things we should get / prepare for before the bus gets here? Thank you for the awesome content!
Great Video, Thanks for the links as well.
Fern the bus is almost the perfect length. Maybe two more windows would do for me. Are you working on the Top Ten Modern / Minimalist Bus list?
Love the ideas i just bought a bus
Loving lola ❤ loving the white elephant so much awesome picks!
11:47 this dog is funny!
Love the videos, keep them.coming. Thank you for sharing
I knew all but one of these buses because they’re all so cute❤️❤️❤️
Good presentation..well done
Saving up for my bus...cant wait
...........subscribed 🎶
I enjoy your videos very much. I did see a skoolie that may make your list. The angry pickle on you tube. They did a great job on their build. Even a story about how the named it. Please check it out. Thanks again. You rock love your tats
You should do a top 20 best buslife animals.
Awesome!!!👠🚌👠
As far as your fear of bears go, you're better off encountering a grizzly than a black bear.
VERY COOL , such nifty-keyno ideas ,not thinking a short bus would offer enough room for us but; ta'each his own, ... cool s still cool in any size!! ~SERGIO~
Great, thanks for sharing love seeing/getting idea for bus conversions😃
Thank you for doing this.. lovely!
Truly inspiring builds! Thank you for posting!
You should make a skoolybook with plenty of illustration
Excelente video ya tienes un nuevo seguidor. Saludos desde Colombia . Un abrazo
Where do you get your stickers
Hey tiff is there anyway I can get one of your stickers? Im in the procces of planning either a bus or a van conversion. Your a inspiration is love to have a sticker to put in it when finished
. thanks💙
Love these types of videos Tiff!
Came for the adorable Audrey Tautou like grin, but stayed for the great selection of beautiful busses. Love what y'all are doing! Sub'd.
Lola is GEEEorgous
I totally just saved this on my Van Life Pinterest board. :)
Good on ya for sharing your favourites! Great to see good spirit 👍
The dogs!!!
This is going to be an awesome channel. Keep it up guys.
What does everyone do about getting paper mail?
We’ll see if we can make it on this list next year.😉✌️
I really liked that video...planning to get me a schoolie and I seen a couple good ideas.
Sweet video, hope my bus makes it to your list when I'm done, in like 3 years!.... hahaha
very useful thanks
Great video !
Great pictures and ideas for our conversion.
Great job
Nice video but u don't show .much of their buses except for close-ups of sections.
So secretly this was a top 5 housebus dog video be honest now 8)
Dat thumbnail LOL
My favorite is from @willbillys on Instagram. They've done several bus conversions, both long and short. And they always have a very minimalist rustic feel to them.
@Rolling Vists 0:57 in... Was some dude flashing you? haha. thanks for the video!
One that didnt make your top 10 is The Nomadic Movement, Kaylee & Jordan.
School busses are better usually cheaper, they are built better than campers, RVs, I like tiny houses but they are expensive, and I like a way to bail out if SHTF.
l had a GREAT time watching this video! . . . Hugs!!! . .🍃💟🎉🐥🍬🍃🌸🍃🍨🍍🌈❄💐💍⛵🚙🚚🚐🚌🚇🗻💦💫⭐
