Dear Foretravelers,

Recent reports show that the hopeful flame for the restoration of the economy may have finally ignited with a much needed spark. These reports indicate that balance, opposed to more of the dismal recession, is beginning to spread across the nation.

Whether it’s the possible rebound in the economy, further recognition of the high-end quality of Foretravel, the loyal support of Foretravel owners or – more than likely – the combination of the three, activity at Foretravel has been steadily increasing over the past months. With that has come the addition of several new owners of the Foretravel brand.

We all know that marketing and advertising is a challenge for all companies. The best sales pitch for any company is an ear-to-ear grin on its consumers’ faces, and we have just that.  Nothing is more convincing to a potential owner than having good words spoken from a current owner.

Really, the smiles of satisfaction from our current owners are what keep the wheels rolling. If you meet an interested party, we would encourage you to give them our website, and please contact our sales group with the party’s name and information. We greatly appreciate what you do for us in this area, and we encourage all of you to continue your effort.

We want to thank you for your ongoing support of our service, parts, remodel, fiberglass and paint departments. We have added employees and have worked on efficiencies that help us to provide quicker service, which gets you on the road faster.

Continue checking our website for specials that will give you savings and piece of mind on Foretravel. And remember to spread the word that we also provide services to non-Foretravel brands.
Although our inventory of available coaches has decreased, great prices and options are still enticing incentives for those looking to join the Foretravel family.

With the dog days of the ’09 summer dwindling to an end, we will greet the oncoming fall with the 2010 model coaches. The 2010 coaches are now on the production line, and they have numerous changes and improvements to further the enjoyment.

On top of the changes in quality and comfort comes the change to the 2010 diesel engines for engines ordered after January 1. Diesel engines built after January 1 will be required to meet a new standard in EPA emission requirements, which will mean changes and improved sophistication to the exhaust and cooling systems, which comes with price increases. If you prefer the engines before the new EPA emission requirements, you will need to buy an inventory coach or you will need to place an order for the existing engine in the near future.

Our sales staff is available to explain the changes coming and the time frame to lock in the existing engines. Contact them at 1.800.955.6226 Ext. 215 or email at marketing@foretravel.com.

Safe travels,
Greg
