So we’ve all been seeing these amazing Instagram posts about people who have customized Schoolbusses into Motorhomes. Perhaps like us, you’ve seen the YouTube channels of families living in these homes-on-wheels. It looks pretty awesome. So, should we pursue the bus route?
Well, it turns out after looking into it quite a bit, the answer is maybe, but probably no.
Why? It comes down to insurance. Go figure! Since these school bus conversions have become popular insurance companies have caught on and, apparently, found they aren’t good bets to insure. And you can’t drive something around without insurance, so that poses quite a challenge.
So, long story short, while a custom built school bus looks like a great way to start an adventure, the realities and practicalities are not looking so great.
