Foretravel Parts Dept. - My experiences

Foretravel Parts Dept. - My experiences
Whenever I need parts ordered  from Foretravel,  I  send written description and usually pictures to my Office Manager in Florida, in the evening hours. She communicates with Brad at Foretravel Parts,  and to date, 100% of the correct parts have arrived wherever I may be within 3 to 4 days. Based on these experiences, I recommend Foretravel as a source for parts. I realize some parts can be bought locally for a small % less, but that requires  the time to run and get them and the hope the local source has what you need.

Are you a Motorcade Club member?  If yes, does the parts dept. still give you a 10% discount?

As of last week they do still honor the 10% discount.  And Brad offered to ship a couple relays in a padded envelope USPS to save $ on shipping.  Thanks Brad!

I have used the Foretravel parts department and have found them to be knowledgeable, courteous and to ship promptly. The motorcade discount is nice, too!

They've always been nice to us. Seems like they even gave us the part numbers once.

I also have had good service from them. If you are registered with them as Motorcade the 10% is applied automatically. I often find their prices to be fair.

As with others, the parts are correct, the price reasonable especially after the discount and the knowledge in the parts department has proven indispensable more than once.
