    Incredibly detailed and thorough. So thorough in fact that I now understand that I don't have the patience to do this conversion. Looks like I'll be buying a bus with an already tall roof

    Hey Doug, where is a good place to find a completed raised roof bus that is turnkey and ready to hit the road? I have a pretty healthy budget of $175,000 USD. Thanks.

    The timing of your question is so ironic. My son and I were considering starting a bus conversation business. I've built two for myself over the years and remodeled several for friends. Do you know what kind of bus you want? Gas/diesel? Length? Currently I have access to a few empty buses ready to convert.

    @@ArtfullyRogue Def diesel but we just started learning about them so we're still doing our research. Looking at buying one in the spring. Would like to do a lot of dry camping so something with a substantial solar/lithium setup (3kw+) and large freshwater capacity would be mandatory. We currently have a big 2020 Tiffin so we're used to certain luxuries which would need to be in the bus as well, like a residential 3-door fridge, king bed, large shower, and stackable washer/dryer. The raised roof is also mandatory because I'm a big guy at 6'5'' barefoot and about 245 lbs. I'm the bull in the china shop in most campers.

    @@UltimateAnarchy My first bus was gas and I swore I'd never go back. The bus in the video is diesel. A bit more to repair but last much longer for sure. I totally understand the need for certain luxuries. And the raised roof is a must for me as well, although I'm not as tall as you, I didn't like the sardine in a can feel.

    How Much Do You Charge. To Raise The Roof Of A Bus?

  • @ArtfullyRogue

    @ArtfullyRogue

    Жыл бұрын

    Hello Edward, cost of raising the roof on a bus is dependent on several conditions. How long is the bus? How tall do you want to lift it? Would you only need the roof raised or would we need to factor in extending all of the electric?
