First road trip is planned

We have our first trip planned to go see OZZY! We don't have our bus yet so I am putting a little pressure on. Hope to have one within a couple weeks; definitely wont be complete but should be enough to camp in. Concert is 4/28 in sunrise FL.

Any skoolies going? We don't have much of a plan yet. Anyone with property close that we could park on? Concert is Fort Rock at Markham park & target range. The park is of course already full for camping/rv.

I'm up about 30 miles north of Orlando. Hit me up if you end up heading this way and I'll buy some beer.
My 2 cents- Don't put too much pressure. Make sure you know what you want and don't settle for less or pay too much.
I'd rather camp in my car than have a less than thrilling bus.

Thanks. I have decided to get an 8.3 Cummins. I looked at a bb all american 40ft at bga yesterday. Very nice, too much from bga but I have another guy that is getting 2 bb all Americans same engine. He should have them by mid week. Hoping his price is in our price range.

Yeah BGA were asking like 30 thousand for a $4500 bus last time I looked at their site. Now its full of crappy used cars too.

Summer is peak bus shopping season.
If you find a nice bus with a DT466 definitely give it a look too.

Lol. I believe that. How about Godsmack fans? Shinedown?
We are also going to 98rockfest the weekend before too. Shinedown is the headliner.

It's official, we just bought a BB all American RE. Still looking for a place to park it from the 26th to the 30th of April. Near Sunrise Florida.

Any suggestions?
