Hi My name is Jacob. I’m a Wisconsin native and live in the upper east side of the state currently. I’m a computer engineer and part time bus conversion extraordinaire.
I’ve always dreamed of traveling the US in some shape or form. As a kid growing up next to the Mississippi I dreamed of owning a houseboat to travel up and down the river. As I grew older life had other plans. I’m currently going on 40 and found myself several years ago getting the hankering to start traveling again. I’ve got 2 young kids whom i’d love to share my traveling experiences with. So I started looking at RV’s, most I found that I liked were extremely overpriced. Mostly the smaller Class B motor homes. I found a skoolie website and started to fall in love with that idea, but a full sized school bus is way too long for me. So I looked at Shuttle buses, but most of those had terrible drivetrains. I scoured craigslist for RV’s, Buses, Shuttle Buses and the likes. One day I found my current bus and thought that would make a nice candidate for a conversion. Well after going back and forth over it I decided to go see it. The rest is documented in my posts.
