My Motorcoach Page

 

In this section of the page, I am going to show you different motorcoaches from all over.

I want to start with MBI Motorcoach, where my dad works part time on the weekends. MBI is family owned, and they treat me really nice.

Here's some of the fleet...


On a trip to State College, Dad took this shot of me in front of #130

BAD NEWS...

Unfortuantey, MBI is no more...The company was sold to Highway Coach...at least the PA end of it.
