and use my code "JUICEBOX" at checkout for $50 off your order! Thanks for your support! In this video we tour Gordo From Earth's purpose-built flatbed adventure truck bus conversion. Gordo's bus is possibly the most unique bus conversion ever completed with a spaceship/cyberpunk interior full of high-tech features and with an incredibly well-organized and well-stocked shop, deployable by home-made crane on his flatbed exterior which also turns into a giant tent for camping/adventures. I know it sounds like I'm making all of this stuff up but once you see it you'll believe it. Check out Gordo's Instagram here: instagram.com/gordofromearth?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

  • I Had Such a blast hanging out and shooting this with Justin! Even aggressively edited down to a TIGHT 22 minutes, there's still SO MUCH that didn't make it in, and stuff we didn't even get to film! Comment what you want to know more about, and next time we get together we'll shoot a follow up!
  • @deadtreebark
    Dude is a mechanic, engineer, fabricator, and programmer, absolutely insane build
  • @Scubadog_
    The bus is what I imagined when I was sitting in a cardboard box at the age of 6 and this dude just pulled it off perfectly.
  • @torbot_
    “I built this hatch”.. my fav part of the video hands down
  • @cho4d
    i think the thing i am most impressed with is he put lights in all the access panels. it's small but it really shows how it's a thing intended to be worked on and repaired and upgraded.
  • In all my 50 years of adult life, I have never seen a project so interesting, diverse, and complicated built by one individual.
  • Man, you are easily, the most industrious person in the world. The fact that you designed, fabricated, programmed and built this thing is wild. Also, your mom is one heck of a seamstress! The fit and finish of all her work is as impressive as the bus itself! Kudos, dude!
  • @gaarcemail
    This is Mad Max at a whole new level. This is like a look into the future. I loved the custom work that is so professionally done. I wouldn't be surprised if the next thing he does, is somehow get the thing to fly.
  • @darthjump
    I hope his mom earns the respect she deserves. Her custom pouches and other sewing work look better than most official pouches one can buy.
  • @albert2araujo
    Gordo is that one random guy you meet in the apocalypse just living his best life
  • @philfree7119
    I can’t imagine this man when he was a child. You come home and the TV is completely taken apart.
  • @qbertatx
    This dude is the neighbor we all hope to have.
  • @thelegend8570
    I was already seriously impressed at everything else (especially the integration stuff) but this took the "greatest thing I've ever seen" spot in my mind the second he pulled out the binder full of instruction manuals. This guy fucking gets it.
  • @shahbazm88
    I've never seen a more multi-talented man in my life. Guy is basically a genius.
  • @madmaz8890
    This is by far the MOST insanely epic, organised useful creative masterpiece I've ever seen! His mum is a master at her work as well, one hell of a build!
  • @plippleplop
    This vehicle would serve a band immensely, the magic bus with band gear PA ready for full concert!!
  • Let’s all give a round of applause for Gordo’s mom. Everybody should have such a supportive mamma.
  • @mav
    this is what dreams are made of
  • @hknight106
    This guy is what i strive and fail to be. The organization of his shop. Truly impressed. His mom could really do well making these types of custom pieces.
