VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Justin took many road trips with his family as a child. So it was no great surprise that when he grew up he would convert a 24ft. 2006 International Bus to the perfect road tripping skoolie. The Pacific Pioneer, or "Turbo" as he calls it has the ability to travel from Mt. Rainer to music festivals, and all the places in between. This custom conversion allowed him to create spaces important to him: a large table for card games and meals, a rooftop deck with storage and solar, and a custom cedar bar are a few of the highlights. A must see though is how Justin created the perfect shotgun seat in his skoolie. Congrats on your beautiful bus conversion Justin!

I absolutely loved the ceiling in this build! Like many out there, Justin did a fantastic job of making this skoolie his own. I hope you enjoy the many aspects of skoolie life he shared in this video!

@his4evr2c 2 роки тому

Thank You

@matacoos1368 3 роки тому

The whole build is great, but I liked that he went into what it cost. I also like that he straight up said it isn't cheap to run one of these. Alot of people that own skoolies make it seem like these buses run on hope and universe juice.

That was the first person I heard talk about cost to "use" them & how things can break down & needing back up funds for the unexpected. Even if you do solar....great to say what you were going to use it for!!!!

Thank you for being honest about living with your parents and having a job that paid you well in tips. Too many times successful people gaslight readers/watchers and claim they did it "all on their own" and had no help. Not being bogged down by the price of rent and being able to save all your money IS HELP. Also thank you for explaining costs, the not so great side of bus ownership/maintenance and telling us you travel with people to split costs. One of the better ones I've seen. The handicap door, slide and swivel chair, and Jeep view were great ideas. You did great!

@@zorak609 I agree with your assessment of my camping desires. I am 67 and like comfort more than I did years ago. I like the construction and all that better than the road

@estherstrategicadvisor749 3 роки тому

@@zorak609 Not true! Many Van Lifers have gorgeous bathrooms and have been SUCCESSFULLY living on the Road for YEARS! It's also a HEALTH issue. If someone is drinking the minimum 8 glasses of water daily & EATING a balanced fibrous foods, that should mean # 1, 4 times/day & # 2, 2 times/day. That's a WHOLE LOTTA HASSLE to rely on public bathrooms😂😂

@nemo227 3 роки тому

A conversion can be BETTER than a factory RV. We like our 32' Aerbus but there are a few things we would change if we were doing a conversion. However, Rexhall thought things through pretty well when they designed our Aerbus. I love to see good conversions such as this one. The 24' length allows camping in more national & state park campgrounds. VERY VERSATILE. And that water heater arrangement is excellent.
