VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Justin took many road trips with his family as a child. So it was no great surprise that when he grew up he would convert a 24ft. 2006 International Bus to the perfect road tripping skoolie. The Pacific Pioneer, or "Turbo" as he calls it has the ability to travel from Mt. Rainer to music festivals, and all the places in between. This custom conversion allowed him to create spaces important to him: a large table for card games and meals, a rooftop deck with storage and solar, and a custom cedar bar are a few of the highlights. A must see though is how Justin created the perfect shotgun seat in his skoolie. Congrats on your beautiful bus conversion Justin!

    Thank you for being honest about living with your parents and having a job that paid you well in tips. Too many times successful people gaslight readers/watchers and claim they did it "all on their own" and had no help. Not being bogged down by the price of rent and being able to save all your money IS HELP. Also thank you for explaining costs, the not so great side of bus ownership/maintenance and telling us you travel with people to split costs. One of the better ones I've seen. The handicap door, slide and swivel chair, and Jeep view were great ideas. You did great!

    A conversion can be BETTER than a factory RV. We like our 32' Aerbus but there are a few things we would change if we were doing a conversion. However, Rexhall thought things through pretty well when they designed our Aerbus. I love to see good conversions such as this one. The 24' length allows camping in more national & state park campgrounds. VERY VERSATILE. And that water heater arrangement is excellent.
