Wife 90%
Is there anyone in the Atlanta area that would welcome my wife and I to come to look at your bus. It would help make the go no decision easier for her

yah they are all over the cali desert as well. I saw 4 in joshua tree when i was down there. and also as a wife to another wife. It will be so fun! haha and you learn so much, but it is costly and you have to have a diy-er mind set. Otherwise you could spend the same on a really nice RV if you don't care about the customization aspects. me and my husband are designers and into sustainability so we want this bus to be an example of our design skills and love for eco-centered design.

"Easier to get forgiveness than permission" does not apply to Wives.
The rule that applies in that situation is:
"If Momma aint' happy then you aint' happy.... If Momma ain't happy long enough then you aint' happy with half of your stuff"....

S&F, I both laugh and cringe. At work I once had a man tell me as he repeatedly slammed a closed fist into his open palm, " Women, they just don't listen!" Didn't change the outcome. She got the double wide, he got the ten by five.

Best you'll get is 95%....
Wives reserve that 5% for "I told you so"

Just direct her to Pinterest. LOTS of ladies seem to find out about how great "skoolies" are by looking at all the eye candy on there.
