E450 Cutaway Dirt Worthy?

[Scottosphere]

A schoolie might be of interest, perhaps a shorty on a real schoolbus chassis, not the van platform.  The real schoolbuses have good ground clearance.  I once saw one driven over a largish log in the dirt road.  Rear overhang is long, but up high.  You wouldn't be rock-crawling and mudbogging, but it would still get you off the beaten track.

To my knowledge, the interior height of schoolies wouldn't accommodate me standing up straight (6'5'' in bare feet). 

My thinking is that if I'm going to pay more initially and more in fuel and more in repairs, I'm going to get a rig I can stand up straight inside.
