Participate in the 2025 Motorcoach Industry Census: Your Contribution Matters
In today’s uncertain economic and political climate, data is power—and your participation in the annual Motorcoach Census is more important than ever. Commissioned by the American Bus Association Foundation (ABAF), this survey provides essential motorcoach industry insights that directly influence policies affecting motorcoach operators across the United States and Canada.
This information helps the ABA, UMA, and OMCA/MCC leaders and advocacy teams fight for policies that protect and support motorcoach businesses like yours.
This survey is open to nonmembers; you do not need to be an ABA member to participate. The more data we collect, the better overall industry picture we will have.
Why your participation matters:
