We Turned a Bus into a Luxury Beach House for $35,000

Gets a Ultrawide monitor and expensive mini-ITX gaming PC, but doesn't pay for Windows - my type of dude.

[@TiffTALKS22]

This was a great video. You guys have great personalities. Did you all give up on youtube? That's unfortunate.

[@manoahvanderwolf3259]

so question here, i see a lot of people making these 'off grid' living accomodations as 'stealth' setups. obviously, this ain't that. now, i get that people don't want unwanted attention, so here's my question: how has living for 4 years with this bus been? where do you park? where do you fill up your water supply? how much does it cost?

[@2AZSUN]

Holy Crap!! Have you seen this bus tour?? This is the coolest millennial built bus that exists! This dude possesses some of the sickest wood working skills ever. Forget about how incredible the floor plan is, the real question is how do you get this dude to build it so it looks as crazy good as this one?? All for 30K as well, how's that possible?? That's to say nothing about how lucky he is to have this amazing woman as his wife. It's like she has the skill set to see right through him and found something that makes it all worth it. The video we really need is how that happened!! No question, this is one bad ass bus build that looks like it's been able to survive everything that's been thrown at it the last four years. All that really needs to be said is...well done!!

[@romarkablebert]

This was the best skoolie tour video ever. The presentation was perfect. Like you guys really showed off the bus the correct way allowing us to get a good visial of how it flows. People fial to do that. Both of you guys were very engaging and didn't spew filler words on things we didn't need to know. Direct concise and wonderfully presented. Thank you.

[@NKBobcat]

The gentleman has a great sense of humor! I love this build! I am a 67 year old veteran who would trade my house for this bus in a heartbeat! Except my wife would leave me, she hates the idea. Good luck with your dream!

[@derekhayter4879]

Yeah right lol. Why in the hell would you trade an appreciative asset for a depreciative asset? But then again, I don't know what you're going through so I can't judge.

[@Ronarch2671]

Had to sub on the strength of their personalities alone. Most I've ever laughed during a van/bus/boxtruck layout video. Incredibly sick design too. Love the electrical setup. I may use it myself some day.

the 1 thing is change is putting the toilet in the bench “you don’t know what it’s for” and coulda put the sink where the toilet is

[@NicholsRCGarage]

Nice bus! Quick tip, if you get a rag wet and dip it in some ash it will scrub the black stuff off the inside of the mini stove glass window like magic! Learned that one from online somewhere and use it on my big house stove.

[@HomesteadinginSuburbiaFL]

OMG! I love the tour and the wood working, but most of all, I love the two of you! You don't take life too seriously which makes you fun! 🙂 Ya'll are awesome!

Impressive transformation! Turning a bus into a luxurious beach house for just $35,000 is truly inspiring🔥🔥🔥

[@HistoricMetals]

Got a 40 foot bus, parking it on land I bought in Costa Rica. It's already been "built" as a live aboard, but I have lived the van/rv life some some years in the past so I already have many visions for improvements, of course. Nice work y'all.

[@ItzAbstractly]

You didn't happen to have bought a bus from Chuck Cassidy, have you?

[@HistoricMetals]

@@ItzAbstractly No, never heard of him

[@chaoticpainting1507]

Best way to fix that white clip on the fridge is just get a black sharpy and color it black, or if you want to get really fancy get some black nail polish and just paint over it.. boom, problem solved.. anyway, that's def a cool schoolie! I can see how that could be used to have many fun adventures! I agree though, I'd have to have my PC with me on the road..

[@unklelew5514]

I've been following skoolies, camper vans, travel trailers etc for the last few years, this one is top 10! -the roof omg -the dual temp mini-split AND wood stove -deep storage everywhere -spacious kitchen -the bathroom is underrated, especially with that bench. when she said "Idk what this shower bench is for" I immediately thought to myself "I know exactly what its for" As a 31 y/o with back problems it's comfortable to sit and bathe. BRAVO you Two!

[@RevdUp.Art.Fotografer]

Ya, I too said 'I know what it's for.' I would have a hook closer to and in better reach of the bench. (Safety reasons)

[@WaotJay]

Nice home. As long as you love it. You could fit a tiny sink in the bathroom, maybe near the shower tap or on the side of the bench in there to wash your hands, etc.

[@RevdUp.Art.Fotografer]

Great bus. Y'all did a great job on the build. Love all the kitchen storage, it's def more than I've got in my apartment. I've never seen pot/pan drawers on a bus. 👍🏻 I love when there are two facing couches, it really does make it easier to have friends over for dinner and board games. Honestly the only comment I'd make - as a PSA of course - is to move your herbs/spices away from that major heat source. (Heat rises...) Heat will dry out/destroy them. I never have them by the stove or the fridge (which can pump out a lot of heat)...and I don't put them where the sun can't get to them either. Ok, don't believe me, don't move where they'd be protected, but one of these days you'll be sitting down to eat and say 'Does this taste off to you? Something is off about this...' Peace.
