My personal objection to these types of ventures is that they expect everyone else to pay for their lifestyle. I had the same issue with Gone With the Wynns and Technomadia. At this point in my life, I'm only interested in supporting one lifestyle - ours.

I've always been that way but I don't fault or judge others for what they want to do or how that want to do it, so long as they don't infringe on my space....

If I remember correctly, it cost around 30 grand to refit the school bus so they obviously have the means.

I liked the comment about one toilet...

Most RV's (mine included) have only one toilet and some have no toilet at all.

Did u catch that? Family of 9, yes 9. Father, mother, and 7 kids...

Mom is pregnant with child 8.

One toilet, and sleeping in truck stops, not my idea of freedom.

What makes this country what it is... Different people have different conceptions of freedom on the road. Your conception of RV'ing in a campground isn't mine and not theirs either....

"Voila! An American Dream.
Yeah, we can travel, girl, without any means."

FYI, freedom is all about having choices. If you are forced into staying in truck stops, and sharing one toilet with 9 people then you don't have freedom.

It's a Genesis bus from the mid 90's that they converted.

Link to the website is http://www.goodnewsbus.com/.

Interesting videos on you tube from them also.

I googled and didn't find anything like it under Gladiator, so it must be a conversion. I can see the guys profile inside and I'll bet he would have told ya all about it since there must of been tons of work to build! or maybe he's dropping a couple of shells in his trusty shotgun ready to blast anyone knockin on the door lol
