Looks nice. Your website shows it as a 45' bus, but it is only 9 windows. Perhaps you meant 35'? Also, you have the original ceiling. What insulation did you put in the rest of the bus?

Great to hear from you. There are 10 windows down each side. 45’ is the length from nose to tail that I have to give to camping sites when we pull in. As far as insulation, there was already a partial conversion done in 2011 and we would have had to tear most everything out to add new insulation. We drilled into a wall and the walls are double thick and are filled between with the original bus insulation. We added a nice AC with a generator and a nice propane heater. We’ve stayed in it for months in both hot and cold weather and been fine.

I'm going to have to go measure mine when I get home. I have a 14 window and was thinking it was only 40'. Can't really be much more than that, my wheel base is 23'.

If that's the case I wonder if leaving people hanging with questions unanswered is one of the life skills that Leslie teaches?
Be well, stay safe

AFIK: In the US, school buses are limited to 40'. Transits and coaches up to 45' . There is an allowance for articulated transit buses but I am not familiar with the particulars.
