Wow, we made a movie! Thanks for taking the time to check it out. For those that think it's too long, I have an idea for you: Put it on a loop, let it play 16 times a day, and Bam! A free screensaver! 😘

The first narration that wasn’t boring! (Sorry guys✌️). Nice work you’ve created. Interesting and charming! Thank you, safe travels! 👏👏♥️🙏♥️✌️

My dad bought this exact bus. It’s in the driveway now actually. We are out here in California. Awesome job on the bus, he absolutely loves it!

Im watching this video with my pencil and a notebook. This was very informative. Thank you!

One of the best tours and builds I have seen. This gentleman was very thoughtful and explained everything in detail without being boring. Nicely done.

After seeing how long this video was going to be, I immediately thought, "No way, I'll be turning it off in 10 minutes max." WRONG! I couldn't stop watching it! Fabulous "movie"! Dean does a great job explaining everything clearly with a smooth, even narration at the perfect pace. I am so impressed with this Skoolie! So well thought out and so well designed. Bravo, and happy trails!

For those of us that can't get enuf of you Dean this is perfect!!! You are a natural born teacher and i appreciate your attention to details! Super sweet home. Hard work paying off . It is so nice to hear how happy you are with everything.

Wow did you say you live by yourself I always wondered where my long lost man was ❤️😊 this is definitely a dream home 🚌

hi Dean, usually I write a Novel when I comment. But, all I can say, as others have, is WOW. I live in a (set up in a RV Park/$745+ a MO!!!!!)) 30' 1990 Fleetwood RV/Travel Trailer that, despite a 3 mo remodel (which did come out nice), isn't anywhere near as cool as your "Mobile Home". Such a well thought out and brilliant of a job designing and building. All Kudos to you. Stay safe & warm. cheers Boots Langley La Mesa, ca

Usually I don't watch all of Tiny home tours because there too long and I skip through them if I watch them at all. I did watch this vid, in several segments, and found it worth watching. I also found it interesting how simple things can be when a single dude is living alone. lol. Nice job

OH MY .. I loved to see ur top deck w/toolboxes !!!. I bought a 5th wheeler frame ( was extra big RV) . its a 27 ft'r I was only looking for something w/18 to 20 ft. when I ran across it. was like wow the 5th wheel top is an extra 7 ft. my plan already in my head ( I think anyway ) I said GREAT it will be my porch area. I will get tool boxes for storage and have great seating... When I saw your boxes, I said hey!!! he got my idea. neat.. AWESOME SKOOLIE ( by the way )..... plan and think.... I've wore out a many erasers, youtubed a million videos of skoolies, tiny houses , box trucks. had no clue which to pick figured I know it when I saw It. Then I did. I cant wait to start my build. had it 2 or 3 weeks now IT WON"T STOP RAINING I mean POURING. so watching more videos and wearing out more erasers. boy I got a million ???

Wow! This guy is smart, articulate and detailed. One of the best schoolie videos. I would buy this bus with confidence that it was built to top notch quality. Impressive.

We absolutely love the amount of thought and detail you put into your bus. Thank you for explaining all the details of your bus.

The stock mirror is great for backing up. Been driving one since 1993.

I love him. The way he talks is so calm. I barely noticed the video length. lol. Great Skoolie ☺️

It's Dean! I have been subbed to Dean for awhile now. Such an awesome guy. If anyone deserves over an hour it's Dean. For those of you new to the game and don't know him or his channel , A; You should subscribe and B; take in what this guy has to say, he's the real deal. Safe travels :)

Oh my goodness. I need him to help me build mine. He explained things so well. I just need help with electrical. I’m clueless in it. But I will figure it out or electrify myself trying. Lol

I want this guy to host every camper tour from now on

The way Dean handled his table at 19:05 though.... 😁

what a welcoming home you’ve built. nice and cozy.

Love the storage idea of not having to lift things up. Love his honesty... like ...hammock I used it a couple times.

Fantastic information, insight and skoolie! You provided information that is not commonly talked about in youtube skoolie videos. Thank you!

Good job Chris & Dean . I needed a 2nd bowl of popcorn !

I love Dean’s videos! I miss him! I wish I had known he was selling his bus. I would have bought it! This is a very in depth video. Thanks for sharing all the info

Sweet build... Dude's not too bad either ;)

By the way, Those holders on the wall just noticed you put the remote and I said to myself; YES I will be applying that to my tiny space. thank you :)

This is another neat and clean flow bus like cicelia I like it alot keep up the good work.

Thank you for all the info. that you can't no unless you had experienced yourself. The length of your vid was fine, I wouldn't have learned as much if it had been shorter!!!!

Wow, beautiful bus, I could sleep in that bed and be so comfortable. Lucky you have heat/AC.

I'm considering building a Skoolie and now that I've seen this detailed breakdown of your Skoolie, I'm even more confident that I can build one.

I like the layout and furniture you were able to fit into the kitchen from Habitat Restore. People don't realize the rv-appropriate stuff you can find in those stores.

Such resourcefulness. I love to see people who are self-sufficient, happy, and content with what they have. Great video and info tour. Thanks.

The bus looks great Dean you did a great job on it thanks for the ride.

I cant wait to start I got a couple more payments to pay off my shuttle bus skoolie convert!!!! I'm so excited and so scared.......but I cant wait to get started......

I love this guy's sense of humor! Love it! I will say that keeping those school bus windows is going to be problematic over time. They leak. Excellent build! I especially love builds with separate showers & toilets!

That was a lot of information. You have a beautiful bus.

In Canada we can use a class 5 ( car licence ) as long as we take an air brake course and test and get the endorsement added to our licence. Dont forget to drain your tanks.

Only halfway through and already got some useful tips from this! Really enjoy these videos, that center more on practical questions than design. 👍

The best schools or tiny or RV ever! So cool! Thanks for letting us ride along!

At first I was going to click on another video because I thought it'd be too long but I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of tips and tbh, I loved your explanation, you kept me glued to my laptop. This is one of the best vids. PS: I think ur home is awesome! Thank you for posting!

Thankyou for showing us,.and sharing, teaching. My heart is overflowing for you and everyone that loves

Thank you for taking the time do carefully explain everything on your bus debating on a bus or van hopefully we will meet on day 😘

One of the best videos I have watched and I picked up a few pointers. Well done, thank you!

This guy is Fantastic! , He's grounded and clear with a nice sense of humor. I really enjoyed this and learned so much! Thank you!!!!

I love your home it’s beautiful and so cosy

Great job on the shower build...just like regular home builds, you get the shower/tub in first, then build the walls around! Great idea with doubling up the curtains in the back leaving room for reflectix!

"Trying to surprise the parent's " Lol they saw it coming 🤣

Awesome video it was long but very good use that on your build seminar lol 🇨🇦

My Fave Bus !!!

Thank's to Dean. That's right , My Friend's aint dopes !!! ♡

Excellent design of your home,genius on how you thought out where you wanted everything! You are very talented young man thank you for sharing your thought process,I enjoyed the knowledge you have made me feel good listening to your confidence in your success in this home you built! Many blessings to you and happy adventures! Thank you very much for your positivity you have a five star home ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🏡🎼🎶✨🎉🏞

Booyah! Just the in-depth tour I've been hoping for. You're one of our greatest inspirations. Felicia's looking amazing!

The shower is great, you can use according doors they don't take up a lot of room...going w/o making my bed would drive me crazy, while in the Air Force I helped all the young 18 year olds make the corners, my bed was used as the explain for all others during basic training...thank you for explaining the toilet, been watching these videos for a long time and no one explained it like you so now I know I couldn't use it...Saved myself some money and going off grid propane is the way to go easier and cleaner...nice build...OMGOODNESS the view is incredible...enjoy your travels...

Great vid! Thank you Dean and Tiny Home Tours, I learned a lot. I'm looking forward to starting my skoolie build journey. No doubt I will utilize the many informative videos available.

Still the greatest tour of all time.

I love this bus and its simplicity. He has everything he needs to live in it full time and I absolutely love the separate shower/toilet idea. I would have shortened the kitchen counter to accommodate an apartment size fridge and pantry. Great and beautiful job!

Nice build. Really well thought out about where things go, what he wanted & making it happen.

Thanks Dean 👍😎🚌 enjoyed it very much. Loved to hear you discuss the details of your bus conversation and seeing your School bus in more details😊 helps me with ideas on my conversation steps 😎⛰🌎thanks for sharing and safe travels

I really liked this skoolie and the style you chose and the length of the video was fine. Really nice

Very impressive features. Really like it. Best wishes!

Best Skoolie video ever!

... And if you have a sprayer with an extra long cord you can string it through your window and shower, or bathe your dog or clean your bike or....

I love the cabinet color with the natural wood. Looks great

Great job Chris. Ive been following Dean before I discovered you. Love his bus! He literally is a very much younger version of me.

I cannot tell you just how much I’ve enjoyed watching your video about Felicity, so thank you for sharing. I’m the least likely person on the planet to ever be able to achieve anything like this at your level, so I’m just going to enjoy your travels vicariously via your social media. You have such a wonderful calm and articulate communication style, it was an absolutely pleasure to ‘meet’ you and hear about this amazing school bus conversion to your home. It’s late here in Australia, but I was hanging on your every word!

Great video---long but enjoyable for those of us who are considering Tiny Living and all things Tiny---especially some of your specific experiencial details like the fridge is good for one but not great for more than one-----it helps for future planning for me. Hope all your travels are wonderful and filled with much happiness and safe travels.

Awesome, detailed and entertaining video! Dean is one of my favorite nomads!

great video and an excellent practical layout plan and fit out, beautiful ceiling boarding . Like you say its all been done before and early campervans were refined over many years to be the most practical layouts possible in a small space so there is little point in re-inventing the wheel . Best design solution is to do exactly what you did and sit down and think about how you would use the space in everyday useage. Many folk give way too much space to the kitchen area where you might spend 1/2 to 1 hour a day whereas you could be sitting in the bus,(maybe out of the rain, ) for up to 12 hours of a day ! You need to prioritize space according to how much time you spend in that space and how comfortable you want to be. Always try to use a space for more than one purpose if possible to maximise the space you have especially if its a small bus or campervan. Apologies for the hyjack buddy but I liked your approach and as an Architect it infuriates me how some folk are clueless about designing a practical tiny home solution and end up with an awful lounge/ sitting area where (,aside from the bedroom) , you can spend the most time when in the bus

I absolutely love this guy 😂😂😂😂. What an awesome, detained, helpful video. Thanks for sharing!!

Loved every single minute of your video. How I want to move to the USA and take a road trip in your bus. ❤❤❤

Love Deans video. I’ve had to rearrange my expectations as my health took an unexpected dive approaching retirement. The last half dozen years haven’t been my best financially and in terms of mental health . Things like the Tinyhouse approach to life and some creative ideas to supplement my minimal early retirement pension have regenerated my spirits. Listening to Dean’s enthusiasm problem solving makes me feel like I’ve found a bro, a kindred spirit. Thanks.

Love this build. This was done 2 yrs ago but it's still a great build!

I learned so much! Living in my motorhome going on 6 years now, eventually want to renovate a bus, and join the schoolies! Thank you for such detail!

Your bus is gorgeous! If I was younger I would get a build. Enjoy!

Very nice build. His kitchen is very nice. He thought out this project before the build.

Love it!!! Very nice. Congratulations:)

Awesome bus, instructions, this bus sweat you well 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙏

You are a very good designer/builder. I absolutely loved your skoolie. If I knew how (and was younger) I’d do it. Keep up the good work. Good luck with all your adventures

Loved this! Course I feel silly, as I have contacted Dean via social media/email to ask him at least 2 of the questions he answered in this video haha. Was I a more patient person I could have just waited for THIS! I sincerely hope you do more in depth tours of some of the more well traveled skoolies! By that I just mean the people that have been doing it awhile, make it their lifestyle, and realize hey this doesn't work, lets change it. I find these types so helpful because they have tried what doesn't work so they are really good at telling you the things that do work but also WHY it doesn't work. I need the WHY, just how I operate lol. Thank you guys for another great vid!!

This is an awesome bus!❤️

Very helpful. Thank you. You gave us great insights into challenges and solutions for day-to-day living I wouldn't have thought about on my own.

Good plan to have the bathroom. Looks airy and friendly. Enjoy seeing places .

Always liked the color and design on the side. Imagine driving that in fog? 😬 perfect camouflage

have watched many many did I say many you tube school bus conversions and I have to say love the way your layout works very organized and spacious smart ideas and very comfortable and homey feel, Im very OCD and so this helps me to know that this can work for us. Would pattern mine after your layout.

This guy gave the best tour I’ve come across. So particular and intentional. Didn’t miss anything… great setup. Even his bed was made perfectly. I wish I could make my bed so well 😂 So much discipline.. military? Thanks for the tour! You gave us all great info and ideas! Awesome 👏🏼 👍🏼💪🏼

I have seen how someone used the refrigerator set to freezer, thus being able to make ice and then using a cooler for food and drinks. Always having ice you don't need to buy it and you have both. Great job! You have inspired me to possibly do a skoolie when I retire.

Wow!! I love this build!! It’s a beautiful design and I honestly did not notice it was a long video because I was interested in how he did it!! Cheers P.S. love the air horn!!!!

I like that you named your bus Felicia.

What a pleasure to view this video! I love the time the builder/resident took to explain all the choices and investments he made. Such an awesome, authentic character. Not that most people could ever do what he's done!

The details you’ve thought through and incorporated into your build are amazing. Curious if you’re still liv’n the skoolie lifestyle? 🚌

Most informative video I have seen to date. And, I did not have to fast forward. I must contact you. I am just working on my mini, special needs bus, demolishing and making sure the engine is mechanically sound. I must keep the wheelchair lifter. I will be 71 in a few days and must need to talk with someone who knows what they are doing. Unfortunately, I have had experienced some dishonest professionals and have put things on the back burner. It is time for me to move forward. I see this vedio is three years old. Hopefully, I will be able to speak with you. Oh, thank you for getting to the point and not playing loud music. Bless you and travel with God's speed and grace.😊

Dean, your School bus home is lovely! You can put a wire rack on the inside of the sink door for some light kitchen supplies, dish towels, food wraps, sponges, etc.

Great job. It's beautiful and practical

I did not think i would watch all the way through but an awesome entertainment super job. Learned a lot from this.

I have an RV so wouldn't be doing a conversion, but I'm still interested in what's being done out there. This is the nicest most well thought out build I have seen. To each their own, and I get the whatever works for you, but just like this guy, I wouldn't have a "home" without a usable shower. I get the need for a wet bath because of space. Had one in the boat but if you have the space to separate the shower and toilet room that would be the best way to go. (Opinion again of course). Well thought out heat and AC. It also looks like he thought out his weight distribution as well. Some of these people build heavy on one side for aesthetics but that's bad for tires and suspension. Someone was explaining their weight and said "there was 76 seats and it held 76 kids" so he wasn't worried. Yeah, but that wasn't all on one side. Kudos to Dean on an exceptional conversion that seems to do it all!

Dean is awesome I watch all his videos

I really love the pine look of your bus. Everything seems really well thought-out. I wish I had the skills to do a build like this...perfect! Thanks for sharing with us! Happy travels! (Jane)

That fold down table... at 19:00 in...love it! Can you send an Amazon link to the hardware, I have a table already just need that rail mounting wall kit. Thank you!

Wow, you did such an awesome job! Perfect inside and out. 😀

super tour! beautiful bus design
