TOUR | Stunning School Bus Conversion with Roof Raise
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 лип 2024
- Ruby Blue the Bus is an amazingly crafted short skoolie with a roof raise. The color of this bus is not the only eye catching thing about it. This tiny home on wheels is tall, feels spacious on the inside, and is clearly well crafted. On this tour you can have a look for yourself and meet the couple who created it.

Great bus build. I love it! Lots of great ideas. You've been very clever with your design choices. Enjoy the rest of your honeymoon and the rest of your life together. New subscriber here.
Thanks for the kind words and joining the journey! They crushed the design and build, so awesome
Where is the loo? Lol
I am pretty confident I saw this bus on the highway yesterday!! Lol
That’s awesome!
The skoolie 🚌 looks great and with the roof raise this looks like massive amount of space. I personally would like to have a bathroom including toilet integrated. This is something we did with our US Skoolie here in Germany
Greetings

Greetings! Thanks for watching :))
Very cute......nice colours
Thanks we think so too!
This is adorable! Very homey too!
Man we appreciate y’all so much for helping us show off our home on wheels:) Keep up the great work and can’t wait to hang again!
We’re honored to present it to the world - on UA-cam anyway haha. We’ll definitely be seeing you guys down the road 😌
Awwe, glad you popped up in my recomms. You guys are too cute
You can definitely see the inspiration from other builds. I love it.
This bus was awesome to see in person!
I love your Bus.
It looks good from my point of view
I've never seen a roof raise on a short bus before, it looks great, you guys did a wonderful job!
We think so too! so cool and roomy feeling inside. Thanks for watching and commenting
Awesome bus... I believe that those who do this life are wonderful people call them nomads or travelling folks...seems like a great group of people to me...God grant you mercies and grace at all times...
Thanks much! To you as well!
Only thing I saw that worried me is the bed butting up against the stove. I see a danger of your bed catching fire, especially if the covers are Ryan or polyester blends of some kind that is highly flammable. You should raise the wooden bed separator by the stove to the same height as the coach's side, or attach another type of separator to act as fire guard on it. Look at how many electric room heaters cause house fire due to anything flammable being that close. You have been so lucky up to now that you haven't a fire. Good luck to both of you.
Thanks for the feedback!
Lovely wee bus ... Ruby Blue is such sweet name too! Happy trails 👣 💓
🍁👵❤🐕🇨🇦
Wow! Perfect size and layout. Organized and Beautiful, colors and style spot on! Thank you for sharing!
Nice Bus! Congrats to you both!
Absolutely LOVE this!!!!👍
Nice but a toilet is a must!!
very nice color scheme and wonderfully nice couple. happy travels.
We agree! Thanks for watching and commenting
You two have definitely got it together!
A really nice conversion, which is really nice 🙂
Aw they are the cutest 😍, awesome bus
Cute couple. Cute bus 🥰🧡
I love Oklahoma. I worked in Lawton. Got married in Ft Sill. Lived in Tahlequah and Muskogee and now I’m back in my home state of Wisconsin.
Lovely 😊
Love what you did with the bus awesome
We think it's awesome too! Thanks for commenting and watching, Rob!
Great job 👍
Unique exterior, esp the paint.
I’ve seen a very similar interior & same exact color scheme in another build~very nice.
Yes the paint is so cute and eye catching. They got some of their building plans from Our Way To Roam. They are linked in the description below!
Cool skoolie
We think so too!
Love Nat, Chan and Ruby Blue! Cool video and bus build!!
Aren’t they adorable! Thank you Lacey!!
Nico💓🌹
New videos from my favorite channels in one day . Nice !!!!
Happy to hear it!!
@@bonafideoutside you’re welcome
CUTE ❤️
Right? When I saw the bright blue exterior of this bus I knew it was gonna be cute on the inside too
Beautiful build.
Agreed!
IDEAS! On the Bikes, I saw the lock you are using; Cable lock I can cut them like butter with a Cable Cutter. Get the Kryptonite Evolution Multi Vehicle U-Lock LS Lock Comes With FlexFrame U-Bracket OR Kryptonite KryptoLok Series 2 912 4 ft Integrated Chain! I have both. You have a great ride! Impressive!
Yeah that’s a good point unfortunately those cable locks don’t do a lot against a determined thief. We use abus brand locks on our ebikes they are much safer
It looks a lot like Our Way to Roam's bus. Great work!
Very cool! Good job! 🤙
We think so too!
Thanq for the video, you've got a great home on wheels. I love your kitchen, those taps are brilliant.
You seem to have plenty of storage.ur bed us nice & big.
That kitchen sink is big enough to wash your hair.
Do you have a toilet for emergencies?
You've done a fantastic job on the build. Great work.
Hope you have a great honeymoon.
Stay safe on your travels
Nice! Nice! Nice!
Yeah yeah yeah!
so good car
Beautiful bus. I would have set up the stove top over to the left from the bed for safety.
Thanks for the feedback! Happy Holidays
No toilet ?
It's a great build though
No toilet. These two are not full time but I'm sure it would be easy to put one in
For $79. You can get a pottapotti at Wal-Mart. Can put it in other the bed instead of the trash cans, especially for women . safe travels in your future and a very cute setup, great job!!!
Good tip! Thank ya!
Nice its a very nice build love the colors and the cabinets and shelving around the bed it looks very well made. I really love your bus. I would need a bathroom but thats because I'm a lot older then you guys so I get up a few times a night to pee lol but when I was younger it may not have been as important. I noticed a in the comments people mentioning the bathroom but if it works for you thats all that matters thats the beauty in doing your own build you can build it the way you want. As far as the stove and bed just put in a small barrier wall maybe a piece of copper sheeting would look nice. Its a easy fix if you choose to fix it.
Its still a very lovely bus build and I love it. Im doing my own build and I got some good ideas from your build.
I hope you have lots of happy adventures and make many wonderful memories.
Best wishes to you both....
Thank you for the comment and suggestions! We really appreciate feedback :) what kind of bus are you converting?
Congrats on your nuptials ❤️🥰
Nice mobile home👍❤️
And Question ❓❓ What did your family and friends think when they saw and or found out your where going to live in a bus,?
I think it's Awesome 👍🥰💖☺️.
Nice conversion. I would be very afraid to have my stove so close to my bedding. I would be afraid of it catching on fire.
Nice
Cheers!
If the bus wants to heat up, put your heater on and the fan, that helps to keep it cooler.
Good tip!
ok, love it now I need the color of that green paint, Please
Great build and ideas for your age, however we are older so we pull a camper because we have to have a bathroom and shower, and like to be able to make day trips or even tent camp on rivers when kayaking.
That's a great idea! My parents have a similar setup
I just want to point out that the International 3800 is just the cowled chassis of Ruby Blue the Bus, the body is a Thomas Saf-T-Liner Conventional.
Very cool!
Its disappointing you don't have a bathroom. Although you could easily fit in a bathroom.
To each his own. Thankfully a composting toilet is super easy to put in if needed later
Their bus ! their choice! Why leave derogatory comment?
@@sharongypsydove6080 How is it? Derogatory to be let down that a home on wheels doesn't have a toilet or shower. Most people's expectation for living in a bus is to be able to maintenance yourself in the shower in the kitchen by preparing food by sleeping.... They're not being derogatory by being disappointed that one of the basic needs that humans have can't be met by this build. They're just saying they're disappointed, I'm disappointed too, but I also like this build. It has some cool features that I haven't seen before so I'm not a hater and neither are they. But everybody has to s*** shower and shave 🤷🏽
LIKE: Seat air compressor? kick drawers
I love your Bus 💕 Where did you find your folding front seat?
Great bus. Anyone know the intro song?
What kind of tv is that? I’ve never seen that kind before
Was there a toilet?
I did not see one hmm!
There is not a toilet they talk about it towards the end!
Are the gas prices hitting you pretty hard? You mentioned you only had another month of traveling … what will you be doing then? Any plans to eventually live on the road?
Gas prices are high! Yes budgeting is important
I don't understand how people don't add a bathroom in their buses, cuz I wake up to pee in the middle of the night every night more then once and the second the open my eyes that's the first thing I do is pee, so how do they use the bathroom in the middle of the night n etc, it's not like you can plan when to use the bathroom????
“Stove rated for outdoors” … Hmmm. Vented, I hope
Of course!
Really cute build designs very cute . Your young so I guess bathroom doesn't matter I don't know even when I was younger I would have had to at least have a potty.. but when you get older that definitely wouldn't work . Most older people have to get up several times during the night to pee...lol and if you hold it... First thing in the morning you have to pee like a Russian racehorse! just saying
Hahaha good point 😂
Lovely bus … but Wer is your toilet??? Wat do u do if u have the runs in the middle of the night!?????
Hi Do you need some great lighting for your car to help you better driving, off-road. We're the pro auto lighting manufacturer for nearly 20 year and we're looking for sponsorship!
Contact ruby blue directly! their info is in the description below
Please please please be careful with the stove burner so close to the flammable bed.
Thank you! will do
Toilet?
No toilet
Beautiful, but a bathroom, at least a toilet would be nice.
Everyone does different things in their skoolies
No toilet
Yup
WHY "Ruby BLUE"???....
Please get a remote job just in case of an emergency.
They’re covered!
@@bonafideoutside I understand did you see couple that their bus broke down and their engine had to be taken apart and repaired and the spent over $5,000 for repairs and thankfully they were were both working remote, they were able to pay the money , if you have nothing coming in and you spend rainy day money for incidentals it will cost you being off road for long time, you are young and really need to think about an income instead of fun all the time, I am not saying work 9-5 but bring in some income for emergencies.
The music was way too loud and really felt like it competed with the young lady's voice at times. 12:30 That's NOT 'background music' , that's just plain annoying. Fun build though. 🚌💕👍
No me cabe en la cabeza que Camperisen una guagua y no haga un espacio para un baño que están importante 🤔
Si.... todos hacen algo diferente
Sorry but when you have a cool bus an you dont have a shower restroom thats sad an not sanitary you didn't even show a pot to use its nice.just gotta have a showet n pot.a full bed remove little frige an put shower there just move thing around an could fit one.
It's an over all nice design but theres No bathroom and you have created a fire hazard with your cooking set up.
Thanks for the feedback!
