I was thinking sitting in traffic thinking about snowboarding.Shoveling the driveway??
School buses usually have WAY better ground clearance than muni buses. Which could be an advantage out here...
Naples, Florida. We need some beach time. Loooong drive though.

It's still going to be a giant vehicle, RWD, with street duallies. It's not some expedition school bus we're talking about here.
Something like this, 30'. I wouldn't get one with the second door. One of the UW shuttle buses was sans extra door (or was it that one of them had the extra door?), betraying its lineage as an ex-King County Metro bus.
Yeah - the length of any of these will be a problem... but as long as you do your due-diligence prior to heading out... I was thinking something like this modified:That said, that front overhang does look pretty hideous for approach angle now that you mention it. It's a kneeling bus, though: hack it to stand up taller?
Approach angle on this bad-boy would be WAY better than anything you or I have.
Went out to go for a ride. Opened van. Moonlander front tire (tubeless) flat. Struggled for about an hour trying to reinflate it, decided fuck it, washed wheel and tire, put a tube in. Came in, ate lunch, about to go ride.

I wonder what sort of giant-fucking-winch you'd need on something like this?
a couple of weeks a go on ebay there was a lifted short bus converted to 4WD for 9500 in canada.Mornin!
Made the mistake of showing the wife how cool a stripped out school bus could be if you converted it into a camper/rolling home. Now she's all gung-ho about getting a school bus.
still for sale...
dream bus to convert...

That would have been a steal at approximately $12USD!
Today is hungry day. Trying not to be a coffee whore. Friend says excessive caffeine disrupts calcium uptake. Humurous isn't healing quickly... I finally looked at the x-rays and I shattered it into 5 pieces. Huge plate of steel now...need rest, sunshine, food, and water. Least I have the food and water.
School bus conversions are cool, convert to run on propane and put a 500gallon tank on there. Then you could run a cook stove and gas heat.

LA date announced for The Sword? Today isn't getting any better.

Meh. Shared Skittles is used to that kind of breakover angle with his miles-long F-150 already.
No sense of having an approach angle of 80 degrees if breakover is still 15...Not bad. Good size for solo living out of it with some insulation. Nissan NV van with high roof and Quigley 4x4 would be fun, too, or this 4x4 Sprinter from the employee parking lot at work:a couple of weeks a go on ebay there was a lifted short bus converted to 4WD for 9500 in canada.
