Loren has to be the complete envy of everyone else who does what he does. A bathtub? A luxury kitchen? What a fantastic build and I LOVE all of that reclaimed wood! The placement of his Lagun table is perfection... Thank you for sharing this awesome build, Brian and Loren!

[@mamalovesthebeach437]

The wood! Everything about this rig is fabulous! You can tell that Lauren put a lot of sweat and blood into this rig. Truly, one of the best rigs I have seen. I can see myself in a rate like this. Beautiful!

[@cheesetoast99]

Nice build! I would also add an airtag hidden somewhere and install a hidden kill switch for the ignition, easy to do.

[@TranceGemini12]

This guy's got it going on! What an organized, efficient life! I envy him.

[@jeffsoyk6994]

Yea he is a smart guy

[@sunshine2528]

Beautiful bus! Very cool wood and the whole thing is so well organized. And I love it has a bathtub!

[@kinderliving1]

Fantastic build. Perfect for your lifestyle with your beautiful dog.

[@LeeAnnCarlsted-uy1fr]

What a spectacular build! So sorry it got stolen, but luckily you had RV insurance! Your job sounds very interesting! And I love seeing your fur baby! Maybe next time you can show more of your adorable big puppy in your next video? I know I would love to see that! Thank you for this video!! 🤗💕

[@pearlhalsey2321]

Love the bath tub build!

[@maryflower3479]

The bathroom is awesome and its hidden away and still so usuable

[@Zak_How]

This build is awesome for someone who maybe isn't traveling as much and has the funds to maintain & fuel such an epic vehicle.

[@annhysell6064]

Awesome thought process, design, and use of materials. Well done.

[@Goal-2-Go]

Everything a man needs!

[@0230Raveena]

Love everything about this. ... Its functional, reuse material to look great.

[@learningcurve1114]

Loren has his job and lifestyle sync'ed up. I'd like to see how Loren mounts that big motorcycle of his onto the shuttle bus, presumably that back deck.

[@lorenorourke7740]

That's right! I ride the bike up some ramps onto the back deck 😊

[@kathleencrane-grylls5416]

I want a shuttle bus! Was thinking about van life for the last two years but shuttle bus recently caught my eye and has more room! Love this build!!

[@stevenwarner7348]

Motorcycle..... Mmmmm Motorcycle is the key. Whoo Weeee! Thanks for this one!

[@jonanaimo]

Well done! Terrific way of setting up tub.

[@stphns1737]

Awesome rig! Well done.

[@Sally-v6f]

The best ever Build!!! creative thanks for showing us👍

[@kathysanchez5945]

Great video...packed with a lot of usable information! Awesome to witness his joy/priorities...proves anyone can do this!!! Thank you for sharing...Blessings!!!

[@Lisa-ud6qz]

Great build and guy happy safe travels

[@alannawasserman8562]

Dream build!

[@luanntinajero8652]

Beautiful bus!

[@margohere7544]

Very efficient, organized system and living space. It's good to be proficient in woodworking so you can build to your specifications in your van, bus or RV.

[@michaelholbrook4401]

This bus is beautiful example of function over form resulting in awesome form!

[@brianleonard6885]

wonderful stuff right here !

[@cynthiadunn9121]

Beautiful! Where's the bathroom? Love the tub!!!

[@lorenorourke7740]

The composting toilet slides out from under the bench! It's quick but I pull it out during the tour

[@ginacardarella]

Love your doggie❤

[@brendalister7560]

Super nice

[@debraisola9037]

Awesome build ! Getting out of Sacramento smart. Folsom ca. Native. God bless 🙌

[@denisegilchrist7822]

Looks great, not clutter looks open and spacious.

[@WhitehorsePatriot]

It doesn’t make a lot of sense to have all kinds of censors if the bus can get stolen anyway. Maybe a switch to turn unlink the battery would do

[@nmr6988]

His rig is beautiful, but I love it that it's not picture perfect, that some things are just utilitarian. Since I am not a DIY person and I just bought a totally empty uninsulated ram pro master, I'm sure mine will not be finished at all, but will be functional!

[@gratefulgram]

Very nice rig, great job! Thanks Bob and as always safe travels, much love and many blessings

[@jeanmcgahey1143]

Brilliant build. The bath is great

[@robertlawson698]

Install a manual on-off switch into the ground cable of your battery, or disconnect the battery cable when you're away from the vehicle. Just a suggestion to make it harder for a thief to start it and drive off.

[@BoriquaBBW]

Some of those fire balls were recalled due to going off without fire and people were getting hurt from the schrapnal. I got a notice from Amazon about mine, but they continue to sell them!

[@WanderingWilfords]

Great Build!

[@WRIGHTWAY5280]

Awesome! Beautiful rig. I like that he used FB marketplace.

[@jerrys5946]

Really well done. But I'm not sure I like my toilet so close to my fridge.

[@stacyhackney6100]

Nice

[@pianogal853]

I'm curious - what do you do with the hot exhaust coming out of the freezer?

[@umamiunleashed]

Having a bath is awesome to me.

[@kariburns6682]

❤

[@Iamwaytruthlife]

Does he have a youtube channel Loren?

[@conniewaite1371]

Does he have a channel we can follow?

[@ericaerica3284]

what rv insurance did he use?

[@chavvy9074]

Anybody know what type of motorcycle that is?

[@laurakramer6425]

My van was stolen and I'm having to start over. I'm disabled and in a power chair. I don't even know where to start. I really need help.

[@Joelconway34]

[@everyrose2]

Fanciest build I've seen

[@FatGuyinaLittleWoods]

It’s amazing how much we really don’t need. I live in an 80 square foot A-frame and will never buy another house. I love living in something I’ve built myself and have loved learning during the process. This guy has got the right idea. Find you some land that allows you the freedom to do what you want and save on that mortgage. And when you build it yourself, you know exactly how to fix it when it breaks

[@GirlNextDoor1968]

Yes!! Where’d you find your land and whom did you check with on zoning restrictions?

[@FatGuyinaLittleWoods]

@@GirlNextDoor1968 south Mississippi. I talked with the county assessor’s office

[@GirlNextDoor1968]

@@FatGuyinaLittleWoods Thank you very much!! I love what you’re doing and wish you all the best!!

[@mojo7493]

❤

[@blairinhemet]

"shedding the shackles of society"--beautiful--so glad you are able to do this in your youth--I'm 78 and still in that process--you be you

[@JerryArafatso-zy3gz]

Just watched a video of a guy put a wind turbine on his truck to produce electricity while he drives. Bob and Brian should look into this.

[@lisaroth7526]

This is a very aesthetically pleasing build, as well as cost efficient. Nice job!

[@tangledthreadworks]

Best thing about this - he can stand up!

[@DrewMilesAway207]

Absolutely amazing, you've raised the bar on the building from rescuing wood from many sources. Your design reflects your personality and style, handsome bus and driver!

[@ktk2094]

Nice home. I love that he left all the windows.

[@angeladawn805]

I can't pretend not to be envious about the availability of rigs in your country. Awesome rig and set-up ❤

[@marvinsmith1393]

Seems like everybody's a master Carpenter these days.

[@mamawren2795]

That is exactly what I’ve been thinking. And I’m feeling a little inadequate

[@soggynomadpress]

Sue true. And here I am just hoping I can glue my furniture down.

[@Ulbre]

This guy has a job that goes hand in hand with boon docking.....can probably stay in so many places that the majority legally cannot. What a great build too......22K including the wheels and now hardly any bills. Living the life.

[@gabrielleparis3532]

✨️One of the best builds I have ever seen: intelligent, attractive, and environmental. Thank you for this amazing video✨️✨️✨️

[@marieroads1650]

The rig ... or... ?

[@mobiltec]

Probably the best build I've seen thus far.

[@championslayers]

Love these clean looking builds. This guy has life figured out.

[@Smoove_662]

Best rig I’ve ever saw! Great job bro! Stay safe!

[@perrymahnke886]

Really well thought out build & the use of reclaimed materials is awesome. Thank you for sharing another great rig.

[@christina3521]

Holy moly! Best of the best when can reclaim, reuse! He will help & inspire many! ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️

[@ann-mariejensen2623]

I like that it’s open! And a bathtub!

[@megeshom729]

Nice! love your photogenic pup, the bathtub, security sytem, the big ass sink, and the overall thoughtful design and use of materials and space.

[@thereseshine7506]

Beautiful home on wheels. Congrats on an amazing build.

[@ceetee2021]

He said he just sits in it to take a bath, wondering how he does that cuz that's a very small tub. The wood for the table is so beautiful. ✌☮

[@patriciahingson1896]

this is a very smart man

[@offairhead]

I bought a rig that was also stolen out of my driveway. I never got mine back. Fugging thrives!

[@ms_chigger]

There were so many awesome features it would be hard to say. But the cutest thing has got to be the dog.

[@fredwerza3478]

Very cool build --- although much better suited to rural boondocking rather than urban stealth camping

[@carrief7342]

Loren--Wow! What a great job you did on this bus! It's just fabulous! 😊Thanks so much for the tour

[@kiwizz2177]

In the first second you can see already this is a great RV. Well done mate !

[@JackieD3924]

Beautiful!! This has got to be my favorite vehicle build out, love everything about it ❤️

[@randomspirit]

Favorite thing, the fireball. Never heard of that one before.

[@glendagilner3438]

Laren, I love your bus, you have style brother 👍 🚎👨

[@MrIslandman59]

I live in an RV and also have a small camp stove to heat with, nothing like free wood heat on a cold day, good job!

[@TeddyRumble]

Yay Sacramento! Sac Tree Foundation is a great organization. And I've always thought a shuttle bus is just about the perfect size.

[@MARKCANEER]

Nice bus, well done 👍

[@carrienishikawa1465]

Love the build, especially the tub/shower. I like the length, the efficiency, and style. I especially like that he did this in Sacramento and it isvhos movable office!!! Just great all around!

[@cotter9751]

Amazing build. If I had the skills, this would be a great personal inspiration!

[@samhavoc1066]

Don't go into any cold environments with your uninsulated waterlines on the outside of the bus.

[@markjohnson6700]

Well done! Both your van and your presentation!

[@soggynomadpress]

Wow! I love it! Well done! Bonus points for the magnets.

[@Usepen]

Bathtub 👍👏

[@raymonddon8875]

awesome, love it... from cchina!

[@samuelfox8126]

That's a picture perfect job for his setup.

[@kentuckylucky5762]

I love the sink and shower/tub

[@CADreemz]

I love it, especially the recycled wood 🪵🪓😊

[@conniewaite1371]

Lots of windows and space! Just love it

[@BuckJones1909]

Thank you both! We like the fold away shower! We also appreciate the financial approach of concentrating the most money on appliances & repurposing lumber! Very good explanation about the positives of the wood burning stove!

[@bevclark9199]

Bathtub... genius idea

[@bridgetoconnor7229]

That bathtub!!!! OMG!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Cali_Fornia869]

Awesome build 👍 👍👍👍😊♥️ Love that fact that it’s mostly electric and that little wood stove is the best ❤❤❤
