After 3 unforgettable years living full-time on the road, weโ€™re parting with our beloved 2000 Blue Bird TC1000 skoolie. Professionally supervised build with a full solar setup, shower, kitchen, Murphy bed, and composting toilet, sheโ€™s ready for her next adventure. We bought a home (!!) and no longer travel, but this bus still has plenty of life leftโ€”perfect for someone who wants a turnkey off-grid rig with room to add their own touch.

โš ๏ธ HONEST NOTES

  • Floating floor separated from sun heat โ€” Iโ€™d replace if I was to move back in

  • Goes slow uphill like most buses but easy to maintain 60-65 on highwayย 
  • Burns ~1 qt oil per 1-2 k mi โ€“ we just check when filling up gas hasnโ€™t been an issue , mechanic said itโ€™s normal for an older engine
