I wonder if Foretravel will start building a front engine diesel RV based on the same chassis as the new medical coach?
Greg Amy's said no at the Grandvention. Can not compete favorably on a cost basis with higher volume producers .
Well all of these guys deserve their promotions. I do not know how you call it a promotion for James though. He is still Mr. Foretravel expert and we are blessed to have him. He is worth everything they pay him and then some. I have been very impressed with how Cory has helped the company and how he has risen. He is very deserving and I have to say that my interactions with Drew have been just as positive as they were with Cory and I am happy he was promoted as well. I have not had as much interaction with Mark but do know him a bit and he too is top notch.
I have been wondering why there have been so few new coaches lately. I've even been worrying that maybe there is a problem.. Building 3 specialty coaches is likely the reason for so few new rigs.
Good news for sure. I looking forward to seeing my next coach any day.... The one I'll buy used in 6 to 10 years.
