Family Of 4 & Their DIY MCI Bus Conversion - Prioritizing Family On The Road

[@TinyHomeTours]

If you're a family considering life on the road, this video is for you! I loved how they took this raw shell of an MCI and turned it into an amazing tiny house on wheels!

[@lisajohn450]

My dream would be to live in a van or campervan with my 3 children but I dont drive and dont work so struggle as it is. One day, maybe 🤞

[@vanjoy1974]

Those children are learning way more with their travels than they will in the public screwl system. I applaud thaws parents for putting their families health above all other things. Such a great example to other families. Love it!!

[@darkangelw8472]

Being able to drive to historical places, seems so much fun

[@whiterussian0889]

What a beautiful family. I love the Mom is homeschooling the kids while traveling. I traveled with family in a conversion van thru famous historical locations thru out the country and it was so amazing to learn about the places and THEN get to see them. It made the knowledge behind it really sink in. Those girls are lucky to be able to grow up like they are! Wonderful parents 💘

Hello Linda your smile is priceless😊

Awesome job, not only on the bus, but with the homeschooling. We homeschooled for 4 years and I wish we had continued. You have a particularly wonderful opportunity with traveling and schooling. Those young ladies are hungry for knowledge (as proved by their books/reading) and are well-fed! Great job! What a perfect background you have to do this! I wish we had the background to know how to do drafting and building as you guys have done. Thanks for sharing your lives with us. Good luck and safe travels! I'm going to sign up for your newsletter and look forward to following you along the way! Jane in SC❤️🙏

Awesome bus! I especially like the full bathroom area and I love how they burned the wood for the custom slide-out tool boxes. Beautiful job. More importantly, I think the education their kids are getting from road life is unmatched and the true meaning of "family" is definitely emphasized. Great build and thanks for the tour 😀

[@jasongilman7270]

That is awesome that they live the way they do. It’s been a dream for my family of 5 (so far) to live that life style. Congrats man you are doing it. Great build

[@carlaportocarrero6464]

Wow! Such a nice build and family! I like how they have everything set up. And I have to mention something, the mom looks so young I thought it was one of the daughters. Thanks for the video. 🤗

[@Jewelymagooly]

Love these guys!!!! We have met so many times but have never seen the inside lol! So glad y'all shared!

[@LHTD_YT]

Love how the guy looks nothing like his personality(in a good way), and he's a very welcoming man in general!

[@journeyoflovelight]

Great ideas. Love the ground level can food storage.. that way they stay cool too. 🦋🦋

[@tylerf1923]

this is the best and most realistic bus review I have seen. It puts the real living (not insta-version) out there and I love it. Yall living the dream and right on!

[@merticebalamocov9326]

I love your bus build, it’s beautiful and very functional.

[@hrhplease9119]

This by far is the coolest schoolie that I have seen on YT. Nice build looks just like if not better than your average home. Bravo ❣️

[@josephalberta1145]

Its not a schoolie its a highway coach.

[@pdmullgirl]

I love the little miniature busses they have on the shelf in the living room!! So cute! Neat family. I wish them health, happiness and safety in their travels! Enjoyed the video! ❤️💜💚

[@annbullard7657]

Really enjoyed looking at your home! You have a wonderful family! You and your children DO learn about people, history, foods, cultures, and places when traveling! That you would never experience unless you traveled there! 🙏💖🇺🇸

[@larrybill2661]

Hello Ann how are you doing!!

[@kayakRnann]

Loved this video! So wonderful that you are able to be together as a family in your awesome “home on wheels” and travel to see our great nation.

[@62WILDCAT]

Beautiful Bus home for your family. Your girls are experiencing a wonderful educational life traveling the country. Thanks for sharing your journey.

[@RestorationRanchHealing]

Great job on the bus build and kudos to you as a family ! You are all amazing and your children will always remember these special times and travel ! The education is awesome. We full timed since 2014 and have been able to do by far more than we ever were able to do being stuck in a box. Safe travels and many more adventures ! So thankful to hear another mom who values staying home with her children and for her husband who supports her in this and their family ! #@Beachnest

[@eckankar7756]

Years ago I watched a documentary on Military Kids having to move every year or two and how they had challenges maintaining long term relationships as they became adults. Growing up with neighbors and friends a child learns how to have fights, make up, get along, build trust, bond etc. In RV parks they may meet some others children to be with although for a very short time from days to a few weeks then off they go. I wonder how children growing up on the road will do as adults establishing and maintaining personal relationships without those years of experience as children and adolescence growing up with the same peers.

[@tinaspears6769]

OK....this family & their adventure bus might just be my new fav!!!! Loved it tons!!! Mr. & Mrs. Hard To Find, your bus & your family are both quite lovely!!! Yal are such spectacular examples for all of us to follow! It’s great to see amazing human beings! Enjoy your travels & all those precious memories! ✌🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@rivermom091188]

Beautiful family living a great life. Smaller can be better and they are proof of it. Love your bus and the way you outfitted it. Kitchen and bathroom are the best I have seen in any build. Thank you for showing and sharing your build so others may learn. God bless to your family 🙏

[@rosieg.5593]

Love your home and God bless your Journey!!

[@carolannworsham7152]

That's a great home and a great family!

[@nancymoe4476]

This is probably the nicest design for bus conversion and best use of space that I've seen.

[@donlancaster7306]

You guys are awesome and I mean that from the bottom of my heart, love that you can have your children with you at all times that is the one thing that I regret with our kids

[@susanmoran692]

Beautiful!! Such an awesome story and bus!

[@theuniquebean]

They seem like such a great loving family. Beautiful home💕✨

[@christyj24]

Nice!! There is so much I like about this build. One thing that really stands out is the pvc/copper tubing idea. Love it!! Love the kitchen, bunks, storage ...

[@Liz-wt2ux]

This is the best bus I have seen so far.

[@armyvetgrl2731]

Thanks for sharing, great home. Incredible philosophy to put family first and leave behind the “rat race “ & “chasing the American dream “ by staying debt free and having a quality family lifestyle . 👏🏾👏🏾❤️😊

[@misswildlife7905]

What a great down to earth family..safe travels!! Where are you at now?

[@deedee2874]

loved the down to earth couple

[@eternallifechurch7009]

You guys are my heroes!!!

[@CMV314]

You guys have a beautiful family and did a great job. The only thing I would change is having the bathroom in the kids' bedroom.

[@elainelipscomb1476]

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL HOME YOU HAVE BUILT.ENJOY YOUR TRAVELS

[@genkidama7385]

2:00 wow this living room area is so cool, really like the top shelves and the wide windows and these big seats.

[@Mandy-gi3nb]

anyone else ever think about how these couples get alone time with no door just a curtian and have beds right next to the kids? I'm waiting for the family bus build that has a split floor plan cause momma and daddy need their alone time!!

[@larrybill2661]

Hello Amanda how are you doing!!

[@melvawages7143]

I saw one where a guy had his divided up into rooms with walls. It looked great but a lot of tiny rooms and lol he lived there alone with only his pet dog. so I was not sure why he did it but he said he wanted h is bus to have the look of an apartment. Lol as far as alone time, have you ever wondered how our ancestors did it? One room cabins and like 10 kids. Lol they figured it out somehow.

[@FreeSpiritMom]

Their children are old enough to go places together. Alone time happens.

[@CMV314]

@@FreeSpiritMom If a couple needs alone time at 10p on a weeknight, I doubt the kids will just wander off.

[@FreeSpiritMom]

@@CMV314 they better take they azz to sleep 🤣 y’all really making this rocket science and it doesn’t have to be. Slaves lived in back huts and still had children. Modern, western civilization can cultivate some alone time.

[@Badgeweefixstuff]

Very cool very nice 👌 well done I like the no solar aspect. 🇨🇦🛠️🇨🇦🛠️

[@nhernaness70]

I think is awesome I’m going to convert to this kind of leaving

[@suzannecranford6819]

This is the best, most creative and yet practical build I've ever seen. Your ideas and execution is genius! It's just brilliant! Thank you for sharing. I am thrilled to know you used Rust-Oleum paint. I live in a toy hauler and want to paint it in the next year or two and wondered about using Rust-Oleum. You answered that question. Thank you. Happy trails and adventures to you and your family!

[@kimberlylong8115]

I absolutely love your bus!!! I want to do a bus/ tiny home so bad!!! May God bless your family and safe travels 😇😇😇

[@dp.oennismaurer205]

Nice conversion! Just remember to keep up with the maintenance on the bus,especially the two stroke Detroit ,& Allison automatic, plus the other essentials, tires, air bags and brakes,plus coolant.

[@patriciabowler]

Great conversion. Nice meeting you in VA this morning!

[@WatchDoggyDog]

amazing, great family and video, GO DAD!!

[@senbuvoltz1215]

One day... I'll be living this life....🙏🥺

[@EmpressEllie]

So cool!!! They seem like a lovely family!

[@shirleyfretty487]

This was such a pleasant video.....

[@jacquelinewells7575]

I really like the bus but what I liked most is how these parents include the childrens opinions as well on where they would like to go to. You don't hear that very often. Their very lucky kids to have parents like that.

[@wayneblackman6407]

A beautiful home for the family.

[@darkangelw8472]

Gorgeous.

[@mariamoshogianni7008]

Beautiful family and bus god bless you stay safe thanks for sharing

[@chrisbabbitt4202]

No Kentucky magnet? Please come visit. It is an absolutely wonderful and beautiful place here.

[@daveandsonyainmichigan]

Nice bus Chris! Wish I could have seen it in person. Maybe next time!

[@BJo4230]

Love everything about this video you just changed the type of bus I wanted.. always loved greyhound buses used to ride them. Fantastic video!!!! 👍👍👍👍

[@FreeSpiritMom]

“In the living room we build two bitches” 😂😂😂 the way he says benches

[@lindagibson9528]

Absolutely Beautiful!

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

[@stanky6261973]

Really nice work on your bus. Looks really comfortable. Tfs.

[@AGirlADogandABus]

Great idea to use the PVC to look like copper piping!

[@Jill_T]

If I was a kid I would not be ok with the toilet being in my bedroom!

[@wbartley4608]

Ya, why not have the washer and dryer out and the toilet 'hidden"? oh well...it they are fine with it

[@KG-ih5ct]

So gross

[@girdygolden7041]

I applaud You!! Great job done on your home. Blessings to you 🙏 ✨ 💛

[@lanalou77]

Love the family! Love the bus! Great job!!!

Happy birthday Bella 🎂

[@ulanidesire9548]

Yes, a bus with a tub and the toilet it separate!!! A washer and dryer too my goodness, yes yes yes!!!!

[@bambihargrove6499]

Great Home on wheels, I wish I was one of your girls 👧 ❤

[@lynnescaddan8919]

Nice home. Instead of all those books, have you considered getting a kindle each or do you prefer paper books ? The bunks are brilliant. As is the master bedroom.

[@darkling2353]

It’s funny what a smile can hide. People who know this family personally know they are not as nice as they seem. They are definitely in debt, both parents are abusive, and the children have no education whats so ever. “Homeschool.” Nope doesn’t happen. “This is our family of four.” You know damn well that’s not all of your family. “We do everything our children want.” Really Chris and Casey, really? You know damn well that’s not true at all. Don’t judge this family because of what you see online. The adults are manipulative, abusive, and rude. He’s even wanted by multiple states for breaking laws, not paying taxes and child support, and many other situations.

[@juliannaerwin3438]

Very Nice!! Awesome build

[@mikesrvcamping7012]

That's a awesome coach

[@evelinnacol]

This is so awesome love this

[@abra3cadabra3]

Wow, that's impressive!!

[@marjmeredithe820]

Beautiful home.

[@janiefox3458]

Very impressive - I do notice though that you haven't visited Wild and Wonderful West Virginia. Anytime you would like - you can park at my house

[@joanneannand8753]

Amazing home love this

Love the bus, but that saw on the ceiling is frightening to me.

[@angetodac]

Amazing

[@coptertim]

Few things bother me more than seeing a family sitting in a restaurant, earphones in, phones in hand, no one talking. To hear you say you have your family sit together at dinner every night is outstanding. This is time you can never replace, enjoy every minute. Well done mom and dad!!

[@CMV314]

How do you know they weren't talking all day and want some quiet time? With all due respect, how other families live their lives is none of your business. You should worry about your own family.

[@gabrielel-kharraz9221]

Very cool

[@kathysyphrit5713]

We have a bus conversion we will be sellkng. Fun times in it ,but we are 75 years old and want a small home. Anyone interested ?

[@wisgal1101]

What state?

[@PrairieJournals]

Fantastic🇨🇦

[@georgeherman8826]

Where do park up at ? RV parks , State Parks, boondocking ?

[@briandavis9975]

Nice conversion guys Chris you said you can run the coach at idol for a couple hours are you using a inverter regular or the old Delco regulator it came with? I have an MCI MC9 also just wondering how your set up thanks for sharing.

[@donlancaster7306]

Also have a couple questions hopefully you can help us with our project 84 mci we need tanks

[@deesandiego]
