Finished A Bus Conversion Here Is The Tour Video That Everyone Posts In The Hopes Of A Million Views

To prevent waste of water when turning on hot water, you can install a diverter valve to put water back into the freshwater tank until the hot water comes.

I SO appreciate your comment about how long these builds take. It can be discouraging to watch videos where people somehow get it done in less than a year, and here I am still not done after almost 3 years. I have to tell you how incredibly helpful your series on building Ivan has been to me and my husband. We live in Alberta Canada and it was so helpful to see someone (who knows what they're doing) showing good ways to build a bus for cold weather. Your channel was sort of our gateway into building our own skoolie and you tremendously helped give us the confidence to keep going! We were watching your videos from the beginning of your series, step by step, we followed your lead and adapted many of your ideas for our own build especially when we were starting out. We bought our bus in February 2021, and started living full time in it at the beginning of this October 2023. (It's still not done, but livable) I just want to say thank you Mike, you have no idea how your videos have inspired others! I hope you are able to find the right buyer for Ivan.

[@navigationnowhere]

That’s awesome to hear. Congrats on the bus and getting the project moving. Bus building is just as much as the journey as traveling.

[@bigfamilyexpedition]

We are just now seeing this comment. Do not let those channels discourage you. There are a lot of factors that go into building out a bus (how much time you have, how much money you have, weather, ect.). Those channels act like it's just that easy, but every situation is different. We know this first hand from our build. We have some friends from Alberta that are building one out too. You do what's best for you, safe travels to you.

Did you sell Ivan? What is the height of the deck rails ?

My build only took 6 months...spread over 2 years.😊 Ivan came out great

[@navigationnowhere]

That’s a good way to say it. Ivan took a “year” (cough cough 3 years)

[@jo-annegawley5027]

THAT comment is HILARIOUS...lol

Whoever ends up with the bus will have the best because you’re a perfectionist! Lucky them!

Thanks, I am excited to see where Ivan will end up

[@ImprovisedExpletiveDevice]

@@navigationnowhere Hey Mike, would you be interested in a free bus? You already know this one well, it's Navi's twin. Still very low mileage. Let me know if interested.

[@PeaceJourney...]

6 months to get the seats out, redo the floor and remove the heater on mine...1 year ago. Still building and working on it, but it was done-ish, so moved in and started living my life around it. No regrets, it's great when camping. I ❤ my Huckleberry 😊

[@navigationnowhere]

Totally agree! Your living the Buslife. Keep working on it !

[@PeaceJourney...]

@@navigationnowhere just uploaded a video from it, too! You can do anything you desire in life! I have found much serenity in the Buslife, at this point I have a comfortable affordable abode with only 2 bills to pay. That brings so much more to the table than the last 2 decades, I can park it and work on it for free just outside my studio that's included in my present position. And when I retire in a couple of years, I can go on an extended trip with everything set up to go camping, fishing and travel to see all the places I have wanted to for so many years, but couldn't in my career. Safe travels!

Wow....of course I'm speechless! Been waiting for this day for 3 years. Beautiful job as always. I almost hate to see you part with it because it is so you. But that just means another built is coming in the future, and I can not wait to go on that journey with you! ❤

Out of the blue I thought "Navigation Nowhere" and here you are. Great job on this smaller bus. Perfect for the solo traveler like myself.

[@t.ellevee-vu8vz]

Mike....Mike....Mike. I miss your updates. I know, you keep busy. I hope you know, there are ways to set up cameras where you do your thing hands-free, and hopefully, you can, and will want, to hire an editor so you don't have to wait a year to get free time to edit and upload videos. So now you know. You are nissed. You are appreciated and loved as a valid member of the buslife and KZbin community. Also as a fellow human and Earthling. Happy New Year!

Shoutout to the absolutey genius idea (and execution) of keeping all the water in that single location. Definitely going to add that to the list of concepts to keep in mind (like floor plan vs weight distribution)

I’ve really enjoyed watching you build this right alongside my own short bus build (which isn’t done yet but im almost 3 years into it). Well done! Your excellent building has really helped me through a lot of tricky stuff! Thanks Mike!

[@davidmoore9945]

Mike, I hope you are doing well. It has been a long time. After 1 year without posting I assume you are no longer recording videos for your channel. I’ve created a rule for myself that after 1 year of no post I unsubscribe from a channel. You’ve always been my #1 and I’m hoping more than anything you return and that you are safe & healthy.

A lot for me to unpack & think.abt over the winter! Much obliged! 😁

[@deborahnicholson2855]

Beautiful build, but I have 2 concerns...first what about window coverings? At night you'll be on display 😮 and second but most important I didnt see a key lock for the door when you went outside...you pushed the two doors together with your hands. I hope there's a lock there and I just missed it!
