1998 Chevy Suburban – Ricky L.

Since bringing it home I have had to take out the entire interior, including the entire dash, all the way to the firewall & everything from there to the rear cargo doors, in order to rewire EVERYTHING, including a lot of the wiring that had been done under the hood.

Whoever had completed the previous wiring did not have a clue as to what they were doing & it was basically a fire trap waiting to happen constantly shorting stuff out. Now that I fixed all that everything works fine, the sound system has awesome clarity, so you hear every note. from lowest to highest, without any distortion even with the volume kicking it loud enough you can hear me coming from quite a ways away.

I have entered it in a couple car shows & sound competitions. The Bus has won a couple of trophies, 1 sound competition & 1 car show, and I plan on winning more in the future.

I drive it EVERYDAY to the office & for all my business travel as Risk Manager for the company, which really surprises the associates when I pull in at one of our locations around the country.

The Bus is a great way to meet people & have awesome conversations. Even today when I stopped at the Shell station to get gas a car pulled off the highway just to get a good look at it & take some pics! This happens regularly & my wife thinks they are all crazy for liking it so much.

I’ve been pulled over several times for extremely minor ‘infractions’ & still no tickets! With the dark tinted windows the cops are quite surprised when I roll it down & they see a 50+ year old grey haired WHITE GUY in the driver’s seat, jam’in to Pit Bull & the like.

One cop asked me one day, “is this your vehicle?”… I told him, “No! I stole it!”… And for what I paid for it, along with the money I have put into it, I may have actually stolen it! I know I made on heck of a deal.

With all the driving I’m always tinkering with it, but even with it now having over 222,000 miles on it, it runs beautifully. I love my ‘Bus’… Drive On!…
