You can search the Internet for your next great pre-owned coach, or you can let the Internet bring the coach to you. Accessible through http://www.mcicoach.com/PreOwned, MCI's new coach-finder notification service lets you know via e-mail when MCI has pre-owned coaches that match your preferred specifications.

Choose coaches by model, manufacturer, year and price, then decide if you want search results e-mailed to you weekly, monthly, just when there's new inventory or just once. The e-mailed list of coaches includes clickable links with more information for each coach.

"We want to make it easy for customers to stay up to date on our inventory and find exactly what they want," says Brent Maitland, vice president in charge of conversion and pre-owned coach sales.

Maitland points out that the new coach-finder notification service is part of an overall overhaul of the MCI pre-owned coach web presence. Customers who haven't visited in a while will find, according to Maitland, a site that is laid out differently to help customers find what they are looking for faster.  MCI has revised prices on inventory as well as created an improved coach-finder engine. Customers may also notice MCI's newly launched Bus Outlet, home of MCI's deepest discounts. On the other end of the scale, MCI's recently launched line of "Ready to Roll" pre-owned coaches is beginning to attract greater interest.

"These are some of our best pre-owned coaches," says Maitland. "There are some newer coaches as well as some older, more basic ones. They've been inspected and serviced where necessary. All of these coaches are ready to roll off the lot and into revenue service, backed by a 60 day limited warranty on MCI products. We think it's a great value for customers."

Customers looking to check out MCIs latest inventory should visit www.MCIcoach.com and click on "Pre-owned Coaches" in the top menu.
