“…how many people are looking for ‘bus conversions’?”

All they have seen are at the “RV shows” and the million dollar price tags probably sets off Mr & Mrs Social Security for retirement.

The Question is how do we introduce the traveling set to real bus campers?

If they have NO experience camping or with RVs, it’s hard to explain why a 40 year old coach is preferable to a new Winnibuggy.

Outreach program?? or DARE…

“It is winter outside. We’re working comfortably inside our conversion in t-shirts. For food and snack convenience we’ve hooked up a couple $20 electric burners.”

So, You ran 120v out to the bus…while you’re at it, how about getting one of those big box $60 microwaves & a coffee maker? And maybe a boom box & a fan to move the warm air around. Maybe even a little 4.5 cu.ft. refrigerator for when it’s break time & a shop vac for the dust you’ll make when sanding, cutting, grinding etc.

There’s no reason not to be as comfortable as possible while working out there. You can use it all when you hit the road.

I always tell stick and staple motorhome owners that a motorhome is made to sell at a profit.

A bus is made to make a profit.

That is usually enough said.

MY biggest disappointment in coaching is the fact that creative or unusual designs are almost never seen.

Cheapo copies of an RV from a show, yes, semi-yacht, yes,
…but creative use of the many styles available from the past are very rare.

The private car is one very fine example of a great creation.

But for my taste the great interiors are all too rare.

Somebody, GO FOR IT!

Done is only a state of mind! |;-)

I can crank it up and go somewhere today if I want to and I try to maintain that while I work. Makes things a little more difficult but that’s my way.

Some of George Meyers’ best advice: don’t wait until it is done to use it because it is never done — use it as soon as possible even if you have to hang sheets and use hammocks or inflatabeds.

Ron is trying to figure out how to configure the shower area in his new conversion…

John: “Why not diamond plate the entire shower stall? Do the floor as well, in diamond plate. Aluminum diamond plate can bend to conform to the curves, etc.. Use a standard flat glass door, and yer all set.”

Ron: “But I want some color.”

John: “Bleed.”
