----------

Ursa is a great bus that got me from Colorado to Oregon all the way down the mountains and out to Texas. She starts and runs great, even in Colorado winters! She has a kitchen counter/sink area, some storage, covered wheel wells, 20inch lofted bed area w/queen mattress, compost toilet area, some storage, a shoe rack, and the sides of the ceiling are left open to finish installation of any future wiring. I'm selling so I can downsize to a van as the bus is a little too big for my needs!

Ursa would be a great project for someone that could add their finishing touches and have a great reliable rust free skoolie! Ursa is currently located on my friend's farm about 2 hours west of Dallas/Fort Worth in Texas and can be shown in person to serious buyers. I plan on removing the rest of my things soon so please ignore my packing bins! I'm currently in Colorado and can't show her on short notice.


PM if you have more questions, I have the full conversion process with before/after images on my insta if interested.
thanks for looking/reading!

Additional picture of interior: one side of wheel well left open for storage currently. Has screens for windows of bus.

The bus is ready to drive off. Just bring in your own power source, a jug of water for the gravity sink, and take her hunting or camping this fall! She even has 3/4 tank of diesel to get you started on your adventure. Keep warm with the combo of a kerosene and a diesel heater, or stay cool with the portable ac (just attach to power source or solar generator!). The bed is a queen sized memory foam with 20 inches of height for storage space underneath. Ursa even comes with a gently used Alpicool 45 liter fridge that only draws 34w to keep your food nice and cold.

The ceiling and walls have Havelock wool insulation. The floor is 2inch thick R 7.7 EPS insulation foam with tongue and groove flooring. I kept a detailed list of materials used and any/all mechanic work done which can of course convey with sale! Mechanic said it's an allison transmission but I forgot what version he said it was. I can provide the contact info for the mechanic too. My stuff is packed so I can't take too many pictures at the moment but my instagram has multiple pictures of the build progress if interested!

Okay, thanks again for reading my updates! (hard to edit original post through mobile)

Hello, do you happen to know the gvwr? This is the size I'm looking for. I've looked at a few. Some are over 26,000 and some are under. I'm in Dallas, Texas. Thanks for your time. Also, these usually come with the Allison AT545 transmission.

Hi, here is a picture of the information that hangs above the driver. It lists the gvwr as 25,500 in front and 17,500 in rear. You are correct it has the AT545 Allison transmission, that is what my mechanic told me in Colorado :]

Let me know if you need more info, thanks!

That's perfect! Anything over 26,000 requires you to get a class B non-CDL in Texas, which I don't want to do. Would you be able to show it in the next month or so?
 
Message me in private and we can arrange a meetup! The bus is located on my aunts farm and I'm currently in NY but she can show the bus and I could call in to provide support if that works
