We're at the AIM rally in Granby, they just announced that NIRVC is partnering with AC to to sell them. First coaches should hit the showrooms soon

Good info Bruce - thanks for posting.

I heard that might be coming and I regard it as positive news. For anyone who doesn't know, the chassis of choice for American Coach is Freightliner. The good news about that is that Freightliner doesn't use Shaw DEF heads.

Word has it AC's QC has improved greatly. I would expect Brett has done adequate research

Bruce, that is consistent with what I've heard. What is certain is that there were a number of senior management changes the company, all for the better according to people whose opinions I trust.

As for Brett, I don't believe he does much of anything without adequate research!

Major understatement
I'm sure he sleeps with a spread sheet under his pillow

Nah Bruce, a stack of spreadsheets IS his pillow!

They are offering AC's. You can see which models they have on order as they are listed for sale on the NIRVC web site.

Good news of another choice NIRVC has made for customers that will move away from Spartan chassis coaches. After crunching the numbers, Brett Davis is enough of a people person that he has found a plan "B" for his customers.
After the number of failed trips this summer, I think there is going to be a lot of plan "B" shoppers, and the service of NIRVC to go with it......Great announcement.

Anyone think AC will come up with a single bath 45 footer?

I would imagine Brett’s and Angie’s trip to FCC at Gaffney had a purpose. Freightliner may become a poplar choice.

It sure is nice to have options and I'm sure this is going to rattle the cages at Entegra.

We are currently thinking about trading, or selling, our Class A and getting a Super C. We have begun to narrow our search to the Renegade Verona and Newmar Superstar lines.

I know NIRVC carries the Entegra line of Super C but it sure would be a plus if they carried the Newmar Super C's. Atlanta and Nashville are a 2-3 hour drive for us.

American Coach had a new 37S Tradition on display at the FMCA in Perry this year. I was impressed with floor plan, the equipment that was offered on the model and fit and finish details looked good. Thinking the price was around $475 or so.
