For me, a 20 grand bill would be the reason to drive my bus into the river. Although actually I have a better plan: my work spot for my bus is right next to a bus services company and they have a lot with hundreds of school buses on it. If I ever give up on my skoolie, I would just drive it into the back of their lot and leave the hood up.

Lol. Ditto!

E450 is pretty much maxed out weight wise before you start adding RV stuff. Let alone pulling a trailer. I’d buy a 3800 navistar - your getting a truck frame, suspension and they 25900gvw. Better bigger parts and componantry. Built for more weight and capacity. Cheers
