Pegasus Specialty Vehicles Signs First Dealer

Pegasus Speciality Vehicles announced it is partnering with Hudson Bus Sales in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, to sell school and shuttle buses.

"We believe that a strong dealer network will be a key contributor to our success and starting with Hudson Bus Sales, we know that we have started extremely strong," said Brian Barrington, president of Pegasus.

The manufacturer, based in Dunkirk, Ohio, offers school buses and multi-function school activity buses using chassis from Ford, General Motors, and Zeus Electric Chassis. They begin production this year, according to a news release.

Hudson Bus Sales is a full-service bus dealership and service provider that serves large and small groups throughout the United States. The company also provides after-sales services including mechanical repairs, maintenance, graphics, and body repair. Their customers include government agencies, religious groups, childcare, schools, commercial bus operators, and non-profits.

"We are excited to partner with Pegasus Bus to offer new, innovative products at a time when they are most needed," said Jay Pitman, vice president of sales for Hudson. "Massive industry consolidation has left our customers with fewer options, less competition, and ever-increasing pricing. Our partnership will allow us to continue to provide our customers with a variety of transportation solutions, best-in-class customer service, and best value."
