Personally serving churches and
non-profits for over 50 years
I ALWAYS WAS, AND
ALWAYS WILL BE,
A HUGE SUPPORTER OF THE
TINY HOME
AND SKOOLIE COMMUNITY.
PROVIDING RELIABLE BUSES
FOR ALL CONVERSIONS,
INCLUDING FOOD TRUCKS
AND OTHER USES. YOU ARE
LIMITED ONLY BY
YOUR IMAGINATION.
If you have a bus in mind, but
are struggling to find it,
let me know. I will help
you find it.
When miles are indicated with
** on this website, they were
taken off the odometer of
the bus. Not the ECM. There
is no way to ever guarantee
the actual miles on any
big truck or bus.
************************
MY MISSION:
For 53
years, I have
sold used school buses.
My goal has never been to
sell you a bus. It has been
to make sure you don't buy
the wrong bus! We offer FREE
information on bus-related
concerns.
We search the entire country
for the best buses. We drive
our buses from the schools.
We strive to have the best
used buses in the United
States. We strive to have
the cleanest used buses.
My primary market is
NOT export. It is churches
and non-profit organizations.
What they do for our
communities is incredible.
I do what I do so they can
do what they do, BETTER. By
offering these organizations
BETTER BUSES at
BETTER PRICES,
they can perform their
transportation duties BETTER.
Another target market for me
has been the skoolie conversion,
tiny home, RV conversion, and
work truck conversion people.
School buses make a wonderful
tiny house and many people live
full-time in their school bus
conversion. Others choose to
build RVs out of a good, used
school bus. Their durability
and reliability far exceeds
that of a regular used vehicle.
The buses we sell have had
great maintenance since new.
They were driven to Florida from
wherever they were in service,
usually many hundreds of miles.
If we find anything wrong with
the bus, we have it repaired
before it is offered for sale.
Also, food truck conversions are
popular. School buses also make
wonderful transport vehicles
for many small businesses. AND
HAVE YOU SEEN THE TOY
HAULERS?
Our buses truly are BETTER.
Come see us. You will quickly see
how much BETTER
our buses are,
how much more knowledgeable we
are, and how much more willing we
are to help.
We strive to be the BEST.

14:21-23 is so important
