Diamond Dealers,
First and foremost, we at Diamond Coach wish health to each of you and your families. Many of you have asked if Diamond is still in production, the answer is yes. Though the coronavirus has not been identified in Oswego KS, it has affected our suppliers. As you are aware, many of our suppliers rely on products and parts from around the world. This will obviously affect all bus manufacturers in the near future. Compounding the problem is Ford & Chevy shutting down production. We are dependent on receiving the appropriate chassis’, so this will no doubt have an impact on Diamond’s production schedule. Diamond will do our best to communicate the progress or delays of your buses. Becky is a great resource, but please contact your sales representative first. Charlie, Caleb and myself will have weekly updates and look forward to researching and addressing your concerns and questions.
We are confident we will all get through this pandemic. However, none of us are exempt from problems and we pray that they are minimal. Let’s not lose focus on what is important. If the only thing we experience through this unfortunate time in History, are delays in bus production, then that is a win. Let’s beat this thing!
Sincerely,
Jeff Crockett
President
