Re: Alaskan Short Bus

Looks like you have plenty of head room as well.

Re: Alaskan Short Bus

That is a dreadfully adorable bus. Just adorable.

I am unsure how I feel about finding it adorable.



Oh, dang, so adorable.

Gah.

Re: Alaskan Short Bus

Any way to register it as a motorhome or camper with DMV, this will usually save registration fees and insurance costs.

Re: Alaskan Short Bus

I would spend a half hour and switch the two red light covers on the front with two amber from the rear

Most states do not allow "red" or "blue" lights to be displayed from the front of a non emergency vehicle

and remember this "YOU DO NOT OWN A BUS.....YOU OWN A RV OR MOTORHOME...NO BUS"

RV doesnt mean a full blown camper...a Recreational Vehicle is used for recreation

Good luck

I wish you luck, but don't expect too much from any bureaucracy. I'm convinced they exist only to piss people off.
