Eagle Coach Recognized with Highest Quality, Best Resale Value

Long recognized as the industry’s highest quality manufacturer, industry dealers also celebrate Eagle Coach Company for its lowest cost of ownership.

Cost of ownership is calculated to include the purchase price, warranty costs per vehicle and resale value. Eagle Coach Company offers products in a variety of configurations and price points, but it’s the company’s low warranty costs per vehicle and high resale value that set it apart from the competition.

During the past five years, Eagle Coach Company has averaged about $100 per vehicle in warranty costs with an all-time low of $88 per vehicle for 2007 production models. “This is largely due to the fact that we have eliminated any rust concerns from our vehicles”, said Jim Kraus, Eagle’s service and warranty manager. He adds, “Keep in mind, this cost/vehicle average is all we spend during the entire six years that each vehicle is covered.”

Eagle Coach Company sales vice president Fred Wolfinger believes that Eagle coaches hold their resale value because they are designed with funeral directors’ input, well-engineered, manufactured to last, and have no rust issues. Eagle Coach dealers agree.

“Eagle coaches really hold their value in resale due to the quality of their manufacturing, fit and finish and beautiful interiors”, said Bob Mazzarella, longtime Eagle Coach Company dealer and president of American Coach Sales in Cleveland, Ohio. Pat Baines of Baines Professional Vehicles concurs, saying that “Eagle has excellent resale value…it’s the most consistent coach in the used vehicle market”.

Eagle Coach Company is the premium manufacturer of funeral coaches, six-door limousines and specialty vehicles, offering the industry’s highest level of quality, innovation and customer service.
