This is the first review I have seen where you have given due credit to family for help with doing the build. Well done.

Barry Brockbank aw thanks. We definitely couldn’t have done it without them!

Nice design. The bathroom is cute and like you I can’t go without a bathroom.
@culturalobserver8721 3 роки тому
I love your bus home, the look is NOT cluttered, it looks clean! So many other bus/van conversions and tiny homes look so tacky and cluttered but conversions like yours actually makes one think that life in a small space is actually livable in a positive sense! 👍
@budlamy3870 4 роки тому
Meant to mention this the other day but you really need to get a cover for your spare tire or when you need it most you will find the the sun has eaten it alive! Another thing is you can look at some boats to see how they incorporate a shower/toilet area. Outstanding job on the conversion.
@StuTheBus 4 роки тому
Bud Lamy the tire has been fine for over a year and we didn’t want a shower inside but thanks for your concern
@marshaduncan6587 4 роки тому
@@StuTheBus Guys, Bud was just trying to be helpful. He even complimented you on your build. You may be fine now, but don't underestimate the sun's power. Hope you don't have to learn the hard way...

I love watching the innovative ideas so many folks come up with but you two are the best. Most of your concepts are in line with "KISS" Keep it simple stupid. So much better in the long run. Your roof deck I would incorporate on the conversion of mine for sure. It is awesome and has so many uses as you described. Your bus is just the right size and length. I was riveted to our video from start to finish. Bruce Matthews

Love the serendipitous shower! The bungie and cleat cupboard closures are awesome. , Looks like most of your dishes are Corel, those are the best choice for traveling. They are light weight and super tough to break and you get to eat from real plates. It's very pleasant to hear you giving kudos and gratitude to those who helped with the build. Nice video, I placed it in my playlist so I can refer to it when I do my build. Thanks for a great video! I wish you well!
@StuTheBus 4 роки тому
Inkdraft yes they are Corel dishes! I’ve had them for almost 10 years and only chipped one plate in that time. Thanks and good luck with your build!
@Curiousever 4 роки тому
A little squirt after you're done. Lol. You guys are awesome, as is Stu.
@heathenwolf4997 4 роки тому
To prevent mold, lift it off the frame once a week. Or paint the inside frame with mold resistant paint. Works just as well.
@veganlayabout6859 4 роки тому

“Stu” is also for STUPENDOUS! This is the best build ever! Love everything about it...the hatch to the second floor (roof) is genius! ...portal to more living space! The two doors at the back and side must be awesome for airflow too. Safe and happy travels to you! 🇨🇦😎❤️

@destinysmith8659 5 років тому
I really like this one! A short bus with all that you need that's if they have A/C or fans for that heat. The little bathroom is great it would be a must for me too. The blue/turquoise is pretty with the white.. clean and bright.. it seems like they have everything they need with utilizing that little space to a T. Super cute!
@destinysmith8659 4 роки тому
@Catherine Buck haha! Not sure about the song but I agree about the shower. Close your eyes and the movie psycho comes to my mind lol For a small bus its super efficient I actually would consider one like this, I would never go larger but that's me.
@estherstrategicadvisor749 4 роки тому
@Catherine Buck Not sure, but maybe those are part of the lyrics for: 🎶I always feel like, somebody's watching me! Oh oh-oh! ........ Or maybe showers remind me of Psycho too much!...🎶😁

@@StuTheBus SAFETY ALERT! Hi! Did u see comment re the NOISE SWITCH? A bus driver says they are mandated to stop at train tracks, flip that switch so everything goes off, open driver window & the door to listen for a train before proceedingbcs it's hard to hear from inside the bus. I think you should look into it. 🔹 BEAUTIFUL BUS! Great use of space. Nice separate bathroom [ would be Wet Room for me, no sliding toilet😁] I love your personalities as you did the tour. May the Lord surround you with His Angels wherever you go! Safe Travels. God Bless!

@pammorrison88 4 роки тому
I’m still on the outside looking in for van life, but I love that there are larger fridge/freezers like the one you have. All the other ones I have seen have been so small that there is no way they would suit my needs. I really like your layout, but I really like my showers, so I would need that in the mix. Wishing you all the very best travels and that Stu behaves himself on the road.

Stu reminds me of the tent in Harry Potter where the size looks small on the outside, but when you enter you are welcomed with much more space than anticipated. This was clearly a labor of love with the help you received from mom and dad. You did great on your layout. WTG... Cheers 😊

@renaepetersen2393 5 років тому
The yellow active noise button is for when school buses have to stop at railroad tracks. It makes it so that it mutes all noise in the bus; like it stops the radio and the fans and everything so that you can listen for train horns.
@StuTheBus 5 років тому
Ah makes sense! It still kills the radio but I didn't know exactly what for.

@JB91710 5 років тому
Great Bus! Nice exterior and interior colors. Go Chevrolet and GMC! 405,000 miles and No Drivetrain Problems! Biggest fix was rusted brake lines and one wheel bearing. I'm going to put up a roof rack with a black rubber water bag for warm water showering. A galvanized water trough in the corner with a shower curtain ring and a hand held shower head and you are in business. The freezer was a good idea which I will use! I'm going to install a fold down rear deck with an awning.
@WelcomeToMyDream 4 роки тому
Sounds good! I saw a build with a fold down rear deck, plus a solid fold-up rear awning, same size, "stacked" together when closed. Opened the awning first, then could fold down the deck (using a cheap Harbor Freight electric winch for the deck, with some steel cables w/ turnbuckles to get it square and solid). With optional bug netting they had a nice deck/porch out back.
@shandelebroyles1099 4 роки тому
Great idea for the shower so you don’t have to use the water heater. But for colder weather I would make it so it could switch to the water from the water heater. First time I have heard of that. 💚
