Sheboygan, Wis.-based Discovery Coach recently added two 2016 Temsa TS 45 motorcoaches from CH Bus Sales, equipped with options, including 110-volt plugs, USB ports, Alcoa Dura-Bright ® wheels, cup holders, enclosed parcel racks, REI audio/video, side and driver shades, and upright Ramco chrome mirrors.
The Temsa TS 45 is constructed from stainless steel and is equipped with the Cummins ISX engine and Allison B500 transmission. Important safety features come standard, such as an engine fire suppression system, lane departure warning system, tire pressure monitoring system, and laminated and tempered windows.
In addition, CH Bus Sales announced the opening of a new motorcoach maintenance and repair facility in Burlingame, Calif. The new facility is located just off Hwy 101 near San Francisco’s SFO airport, which offers a very convenient location for customers. This new facility will offer a fully-stocked retail parts center and will be staffed with expertise to support all makes and models of motorcoaches, according to the company.
“We are proud to be expanding into our third maintenance and service facility during our fifth year as Temsa’s exclusive distributor. This full service facility will offer technical support for our highly successful Temsa motorcoaches operating in Northern, Calif.,” said Duane Geiger, executive VP, sales & service, for CH Bus Sales. “CH Bus understands that superb aftersales support is key for success in this industry and we look forward to offering our current customers and our newest customers the all-around support they expect.”
Premiums remain elevated. Underwriting scrutiny is intense. And claims costs continue to rise at historic levels. Behind those numbers lies a complex mix of legal, medical, and cultural forces reshaping the commercial landscape.
The company said it has remained the most widely purchased model in the new coach market across the US and Canada, according to historical data from the Motorcoach Builders Survey conducted by the American Bus Association
A phased approach to technology, in-house capabilities, and workforce investment is helping transportation leaders break the reactive cycle and build more resilient, revenue-focused operations.
The company's flagship H3-45 is also the best-selling 45-foot motorcoach in North America, according to vehicle registration data from S&P Global Mobility (Polk).
