Whats up man I just recently discovered you and normally im like.....GET ME OUT OF HERE but you're a good dude and know what your talking about. Right now I am taking classes to be a full stacked web developer so I can work remote and use that money to fund a Skoolie build. Thinking 5-7 Window nothing crazy. Glad I caught you early on your journey and looking forward to seeing it unfold.

@@Snarfimus dude thank you. I’m glad you enjoy watching my shenanigans. Good luck in your web dev classes. You’ll be closer to getting a skoolie in no time. Cheers

Good video. I'm just getting started but my estimates are in the same ballpark which makes me feel like I'm on the right track. 👍🙂 Thx.

@@Lynn705Hal no problem. Glad I could help!

Can't even buy a decent bus nowadays. 300,000 mile rust bucket cost $5 grand. Then it's a pain in the ass to get insurance and registration. gas is over $4 RV community do NOT accept skoolies. I see and hear about soooo many skoolie builders and travelers giving up because it's too expensive.

[@Escapademade]

@@ericdebord there’s def more hoops to jump through but good buses are def out there. Just harder to find. I’ve called numerous rv parks and it’s about 50/50 on whether they accept them or not. They usually want you to send pics of the bus. As far as insurance, yeah I’ve heard it’s a pain, but can be done.

Ayyy your back. How you doing man.

[@Escapademade]

@@TateMurphyYT thank you Tate. Getting there brotha. Finally off the crutches so I’m tryna get little things done with the bus. Hope all is well with you man!

easy to purchase extras ... I live about 50 miles from the "store" so I'm better off with some inventory vs wasting time/money running around looking for parts

[@Escapademade]

@@bigrollinghome2091 yep 100%. I’ve realized it’s better to buy more than you need from the store than making 100 trips back and forth.
