Mit etwas Hilfe, Unterstützung und auch Glück
fanden wir „unseren“ Bus in den USA. Er war
relativ neu, mit gerade mal 50.000 Meilen auf
dem Tacho, also gerade mal eingefahren. Auf
dem Weg zum Hafen auf‘s Schiff, gab es noch
einen Zwischenstopp von 2 Wochen in einer
Werkstatt für den ersten Umbau noch vor Ort.

SPECIAL FEATURES
All wheel
The bus was still in the USA on all-wheel incl. Air suspension converted. As a result, the entire bus is 40cm higher than originally. In addition, we have a winch mounted in case we get stuck.
Hydraulic supports
With 4 hydraulic supports we can level the kangaroo bus in any terrain. Just press a button and the bus levels itself fully automatically.
Storage boxes
Thanks to the elevation, we were able to install storage boxes around our bus. In it, among other things, our water heater and other equipment for our trip is accommodated.
Energy Management
Thanks to 20 solar panels with a total power of 3000 watts and a battery storage of 10kW we can travel 100% self-sufficient.
Sunscreen
Electric awnings are installed on both sides along the entire length of the bus. So we have protection from the sun in the summer.
Living space
Inside we have everything we need. Directly behind the driver’s seat is our living room. Then follows kitchen with stove, oven and two refrigerators.
4 children’s bedrooms are built as a kind of cabins and at the end follows the bathroom incl. Underfloor heating, shower and washing machine.
