Welcome to the channel! My name is Johnny and I'm here to share my story! After leaving a successful job in Corporate America and starting my own video production company, I decided building a bus to travel the country would be the next best step! Seeking a life filled with less things and more experience is what I'm about. I have aspirations to live my late twenties and beyond in places I could have never imagined all while meeting some cool people and sharing some great adventures together along the way. I want to show you guys the transformation in both the bus and my life and how you too can make this life a REALITY too!! Subscribe below!

    Can relate. After 14 years my spouse & I have split up. Even though we know it’s for the best, it’s extremely painful. I’m absolutely heartbroken. I’m so sorry you’re going through it.

    Some school buses are shuttle buses. Fairly common actually.

    I'm going to binge watch your videos 🤗🥰 I just found your video on welding in a new floor last night and that's the same exact problem with my "church" bus. I was amazed that you weren't totally overwhelmed in the video. Of course I haven't watched the 2 before so maybe these are the ones you screamed and cursed and cried in 😂 I don't think I'll ever ride a church bus 😬 You two did an amazing job! Thanks for sharing.

    Shux you need me to build you a killer shower and I need you to help me fix my rotted floor 😁 Is this the same bus yall fixed a rotted floor in? Also may I ask how long your interior space is from back of driver seat?

    Wow I'm heartbroken seeing this. I found you guys last night in your 3 year old video replacing rotted floor in your bus. YOU DID AN AMAZING JOB! I just got a 98 E450 V10 IN. THE. VERY. SAME. SHAPE. I Need You! Come here young man 😂 I'm going to go thru all your videos looking for hope for my bus. I KNEW BETTER and let a Pastor keep me from looking under the bus. It was so cheap I would have taken it with a lot of rust just to convert and move to my land to live in. I'm in a bad place and looking for refuge. By the time I had seen my bus was just like yalls all of my hopes and dreams went *poof* before my eyes... until I saw your video last nite. What you did there gave me hope and I'm crying now because of it. Thank you both 😢 I'm certainly a new subscriber and now have to go see your most recent video to see how you're doing. Mostly... because you gave have me hope. Thank you and Bless you both 🙏❤

    I just found your video online when I was looking for a smart solution for the rust I just discovered today in our Bus. We have a C4500 and we are converting to a Gaming Bus and we discovered a shiiiii!!! Load of rust today in the walls metal bracing and now I am nervous to find out what lies beneath the flooring.... So what did you use or do for the welding job. Like what are some tips?
