IS THIS THE BEST SKOOLIE WE'VE EVER MADE?
My name's Chuck, I've been professionally converting buses for the last 7 years and was director of operations for a bus company before that.
IN THIS VIDEO, I'll give an in-depth tour of the best bus we've made yet, covering the systems, design, and features of this top of the line conversion.

Hello, Chuck, I'm very impressed with the design, layout, and execution of all of the features "worked-into" this conversion. The 16-inch 'roof raise' revises the center of gravity of this bus, however, while the CG has changed, it's been modified in such a way that the change is "primarily vertical, but remains centered". This will not affect the handling characteristics of the vehicle in the least, and the "riveting of the vertical columns" should be far more than adequate when considering the importance of transferring the roof's load to the frame of the bus. I am a retired industrial engineer, and spent most of my working life supporting avionics manufacture at the vendor level. I must also confess, that a friend who is an attorney, has contracted with me to serve as a consultant in the "Texas Skoolie Conversion Controversy". Prior to five weeks ago, I had no idea whatsoever that the concept of the "Skoolie" ever existed. Best of luck with your conversion business, and, please, continue to proliferate the "Skoolie Lifestyle" with examples of this level of quality workmanship! I need not say more. All the best!

Besides it being perfect, I have a tip. A reading light in both sides of the bunks as some feel better if they can hide their heads/faces when they sleep. Both from other people and light in the morning. But mostly because of privacy (where they are supposed to have their feet) I had to switch sides for some bunks once because I didn’t think about those things before. Maybe a battery Puck light can do the trick. It’s really not something big. I love the build. A lot of homes in Scandinavia have drying racks over the kitchen sink. It’s so practical.

Another beauty. The bunks and the back bedroom are so cozy, the kitchen with all the storage everywhere plus 2 spice racks, the dog’s nest, and the swivel driver’s seat make a fantastic use of the space. Only thing I would change would be to add some richer color into all that yellow-white expanse. Otherwise it is beautiful. Your team hit another one out of the park!

Would even love to see another full tour of the bus after it's all set up, furnished and decked out by the owners. This is just the perfect buil, from the simplicity and minimalistic lines, the STORAGE, unique lay out and the insulation (fewer window) which actually looks like a house and not a bus, as skoolie owners mostly leave almost all windows original to the bus. Hopefully you could reconnect to the owners, and contact them for a full tour of their amazing home.
