Hi Guys!

Taking a few seconds to introduce myself. I don't have a bus yet, but am beginning my research now. My goal is to convert and live in one full-time within the next five years. Thank you all so much for sharing your knowledge!

With your location, at least you won't have far to go for a great bus. You may, however, require a little bit deeper pockets than some of us.
It will be worth it though...

Thanks! In my cursory searches for a bus, I have noticed the same thing - lots of variety in the types and the cost. Currently digging around in the threads to see what people have enjoyed and what they have struggled with RE: make/model/year. This place is a treasure trove of information!

If I were in So Cal, I'd save up for on of those fancy Crowns!

What a gorgeous vehicle! Do you like it because of the body, or the engine?

I'm likely in the minority in this, but I don't care much about the looks.
The drivetrain and brakes are what I'm so impressed with on the Crowns.
