Anthony Taylor

Installation Network Manager

"I came to Coach to review the installation of the Roush Cleantech fuel system (a propane system). You do not see this level of quality very often! The attention to detail was impeccable from installing the rear fuel lines, to getting the tank installed to applying the proper torque to the fasteners that holds the tank in place. I was very impressed with what I saw. 

I have the greatest confidence that Coach and Equipment will produce a quality product for Roush Cleantech. It was a pleasure working with the team!"

Employee Spotlight
50 Years and Counting! 

Sam started in 1973 as an 18-year-old high school graduate who decided it was time to get a real job! He said he did what his father told him to do - ‘If someone is willing to teach you something, keep your ears open and your mouth shut.’ This has been a good strategy as he is now our Chief Engineer. Sam commends a great debt of gratitude to the McMullens for his 50-plus years of employment. “He has been a great boss, a better mentor, and one of my best friends. He treated me like one of his other brothers. I'll never be able to repay his faith in me.”
