BUS CONVERSIONS - A POSSIBLE FINANCIAL BURDEN
by EZLife

I was converting a bus, have a complete set of maintenance manuals and service notes, etc. 

Most buses are federally regulated, that means many relays etc. to shut the bus down for passenger safety reasons. On an older bus there will always be some wiring problems (corrosion etc.) This means that no matter how well prepared you are, your bus may become disabled on the side of the road. A bus expert for your particular bus will not be available and you will be at the mercy of whomever is nearby.  No matter how well intentioned this individual is, it may take many billable hours to fix a simple problem.

I decided that I would not be able to handle that financial burden. I bought an aluminum framed fifth wheel with a truck that can be more economically repaired should any problem arise. 

Still have some things to complete before my wife and I start our travels. I will let you know if I have any misgivings about my choice. 
Please forgive any misspellings, I was a computer expert.
