Eagle Coach Announces Record-Breaking Sale to Funeral Auto Company in Louisville

Sept. 7, 2010 - PRLog -- August 27, 2010 – Louisville, KY – Eagle Coach Company, an internationally recognized professional vehicle manufacturer based in Amelia, OH, announced the sale of 23 vehicles to Funeral Auto Company in Louisville, KY.  A first time sale for Eagle Coach, the auto company chose a fleet of eleven Cadillac Ultimate hearses and twelve Cadillac 6-door limousines.

“We needed vehicles that would be reliable, have low maintenance costs and retain outstanding resale value,” Owen said. “Eagle was the clear choice for that.
