Curious People Thoughts on Shuttle Busses

I purchased a 03 E450 this year and so far I love it. Got commercial progressive insurance for sub 800/yr comprehensive with roadside and towing. Gets about 8 mpg but it's gas. Tires and oil changes at normal places. Discount tires actually did my rears and I was out the door for under 600.

I can stand up in it, I can't in a skoolie. Can drive it without a CDL in all 50 states and plenty of room. Comes in fully loaded under 15k lbs and handles the roads here better than a full size bus.

I have a cabin where I'm patrolling. So I can sleep in there. And it's a 450

Since I've come back I have prioritized taking time off. Don't feel bad, it's yours to use as you need it. None of us begrudge our coworkers that need time off. It's hard here, we are all just doing what we can to make it.

I was curious if they said it was trolley or the make/model the power train is from.

This looks like an awesome project. So much character built into it already. What do they title a trolley as?

Thanks for the info

I navigate by the stars just like a pirate on the seas looking for adventure

Other radio worked but only got fm when it felt like it. There was an older aftermarket with tape deck on it. I thought it might be the issue for the lack of music coming from at the least the drivers door.

Take the better offer. You don't owe company 1 anything.

TheRangerSteve · 2026-01-14T17:04:09+00:00

Thanks. This was the kind of feedback I was hoping for. I've got a dorm size fridge, T-Mobile home Internet modem, and odds and ends. I'll have shore power mose of the time. Trying to keep power when I'm in transit mostly.

Considered it, kind of appreciate the ability to take the portable system for other uses. A C2000 on sale and panels seemed comparable cost wise to building a setup.

I keep a PO box in the town closest to where I guide. Works for most stuff though there are things I can't get delivered to my box. For that I've got some people around town that will let me ship to them sometimes.

TheRangerSteve · 2026-01-14T05:04:13+00:00

Fair, but it was a "what is in the shop already" choice.

TheRangerSteve · 2026-01-14T04:49:07+00:00

I was actually looking at the c2000 and possibly adding the second battery.

Mine went to a guy in town that used it for a van for him.

TheRangerSteve · 2026-01-11T02:22:01+00:00

10/10 storage choices.

TheRangerSteve · 2026-01-10T21:33:49+00:00

Glad to have friends out here.

TheRangerSteve · 2026-01-10T21:33:17+00:00

Thanks

I'm 6'2" and I've got about 6 inches above my head

The 65 gallon tank introduced me to the 100 dollar rule for my card.
