What is the distance from ground to main floor frame

Might want to specify a make and model if you want any useful answers...

it's about one fat guy laying on his back with his arms reaching out, don't ask how I know

LOL - incredibly accurate. My bus is roughly the same height!!

I'm 5'10" and can sit upright on the ground under my bus and not have to slouch; but I'm constantly knocking my head against mechanical components, the frame, and the occassional random screw or bolt sticking out of somewhere I didn't see....

Heck I can't get under most mine with under storage. Got under for the brake dryer and under the rear end up against the boxes and thought I was stuck. Always try to have someone around when under. Never know when anxiety going to hit ya and someone may have pull ya out.

Same on this bus, there is about 14" skirting measured from the bottom of the hat channel.

I got stuck under a trailer house fixing pipes at 20 below zero. Had to remove my winter monkey suit to get free!
