Re: Our New Skoolie (Yet to be named.)

Here's the link to the screen. Although we just bought ours at Wally-world. It doesn't like the arm for the door. I am going to put magnets on that side so it can come off and reattach itself if it...

Re: Our New Skoolie (Yet to be named.)

Finally got fed up fighting the carb so I bought a new Holley and got it installed. Now the bus sounds great and drives better. I can now keep the bus cruisin' along at a respectable 60mph without...

Re: any one going anywhere this summer?

We've been thinking of taking a road trip to the area around Mount Rushmore in the bus but we're not sure if we'll be doing it this summer. Gas prices are a small part but the big reason is that we...

Re: Deadbolt on front door?

:lol: I really like that sign. But I am so afraid anymore that I may have to really defend myself on my own property anymore, and that a sign like that would give some lawyer an excuse to say that I...

Re: Deadbolt on front door?

After we moved into our current place a meth dealer moved just down the road from us. Lets just say that it hasn't been a good couple of years. We had a lot of stuff "grow legs." Didn't matter if it...

Re: 1974 Model 05 Silver Eagle

If 22mph is windy then you don't want to come to KS. That's a nice breeze here.

Re: Keeping your Bus out of the mud

I'd just go grab a few bags of cement and a couple of long 2x6's. Make some 2ft x 2ft concrete blocks 5-6 inches thick and place them where you are going to park the bus. It's a lot cheaper than...

Re: legault family

I have American Family. I have it insured for a set amount though. I had to go through an appraiser and all that hassle. Luckily the previous owner had done much of it before I bought the bus.

Re: Solar panel setup

I've got a couple that I need to put new batteries in. Somehow they got turned on in the packaging. I'll get pics when I open them up to replace the batteries.

Re: Our New Skoolie (Yet to be named.)

Quick update on the bus. The 4 barrel carb was completely shot. Got it on the bus and it was running like crap. The mechanic figured it might have had problems when he rebuilt it but since the kit...

Re: Solar panel setup

I just got the order in today. I guess they are so popular someone from the post office had to open the package and help himself to 2 of them. I've already got 5 in the bus. One for each of us. And...

Re: Solar panel setup

I've been thinking of solar when we head out for boon-docking camping trips. But I am not a full-timer, just a weekender so the price of it can't be justified for me. Since I am in Kansas it seems...

Re: Weird idea in case someone needs inspiration

I've seen a skoolie with a pop-up mounted on top of it. It was a pretty ingenious build but the pop-up wasn't added in a way that someone could enter it from inside the bus. Instead it was a small...

Re: Bullethole - 39 Ford Skoolie

I saw that and as tired as I am I read it as a Deuce and a half chassis. That actually gave me a good visual and a giggle. I actually would consider something like that if I had the ability to do...

Re: Green Energy Project

My new truck is flex fuel. I've found that you get worst mpg with flex fuel than you do with regular gas so the savings at the pump ends up being lost to more gas being used. I went through a couple...

Re: Just bought a bus. What do y'all think?!

Looks like a great start reminiscent of a toter-home. All that missing bus should allow that thing to tow rather impressively. That cargo bed is going to come in very handy. I actually like the look...

I also wanted to add that the reason I mentioned the vans was that the police were already looking for those vans because of previous experience with drunks. Which will also be your case because you...

Re: Skoolie Traveling 101: the fuzz,etc??? Opinions welcom!

I understood you were not going to be drinking and driving. My point that I was trying to make, that even when I reread my post didn't come across clear, was that if you have any drinker in the rear...
