I met and chatted with this guy today (didn't catch his name) at a rest stop between Tucson and El Paso today. Nice guy. Said his bus was a 2000cc but his dad had changed it from FI to a carb. It was idling beautifully. Engine sounded good and strong. Oregon plates on his fully loaded bus. He said he was on his way to Florida
I asked him what speeds he was cruising at on the freeway. He said 60-65 due to how heavily loaded he was. I passed him several miles down the road in my Honda. Hope his trip is uneventful. _________________ Contact me at [email protected]

Spotted in Salmon Arm, B.C., in 2015 while waiting at a train crossing. Saw him coming down the road and had just enough time to pull out the camera and snap a quick shot

Random sighting of a camper bus in the San Francisco mission district. First time successful posting from my phone! Old dog, new tricks, blah blah blah...

Saw this hightop on 95 in VA today at mm 140. Looks like a deluxe sunroof to hightop conversion given the chrome trim and lack of land electrical hookup.

Although I've been absent from this forum for a couple years I'm still out here spotting bays on the way. Here's one I saw a couple of days ago and one I saw today in Santa Fe.
