Awesome, man. So nice to see another bus travelling! I like your map idea, I was also thinking about putting up a dash cam and uploading a 16x video with commentary of driving.

Found a 1999 international 24 passenger short bus with dt466 motor. Is that generally good for my next size up?

2 hands on the wheel at all times! Nine-and-three or eight-and-four is the new method.

If he can drive a bus, he can drive anything !

All you have to do is walk into a parts store and say jeep and it's an automatic 50$.
Now if you walk in looking for the parts for the Chevy motor and tranny you put in it or the exact ford ignition system you fitted to the Chevy MSD your parts are 15 -20$
Just don't say JEEP?
