I'm not really sure what to say here but suffice to say I've been on the skoolie kick for far too long and hoped it would fade but since it hasn't I'm in the market. Planning on getting the build-out finished by the time my current lease is up and can move in full-time. Looking for a strong diesel pusher so I can start seeing all those sites I've driven past for all these years. America has so many incredible places to see and I don't want to wait until I'm too old to enjoy them.

Indeed, welcome back. You can take the boy out of the school bus, but you can not take the Skoolie out of the man!!

I'd rather have a bottle on front of me,
Than a frontal lobotomy.
