What does WB mean in 27MBWB?
Hi all.  I'm look at a 27' MBWB.  What does the WB refer to?  Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.
LD models are listed by the length and floor plan, always indicated by a two-letter designation. A 27MB is a 27' Mid-Bath floorplan.
WB is a non-standard abbreviation, if I had to guess it means 'with bunk', as opposed to having an entertainment center.
You will find out soon enough.

You can find a list of Lazy Daze models and floorplans in the Lazy Daze Pocket Guide.

Welcome to this Neighborhood.   That acronym is not anything used by Lazy Daze.   In other words, that’s some kind of made up description that is rather meaningless.   Perhaps you could explain where you discovered it.

'WB'  The only thing that came to my mind would be "wide body".  E350 at 8' and E450 at 8' 6".  Wet Bath wouldn't apply because none of the floor plans have the toilet in with the shower.  A mystery to me. Something not in the marketing lexicon for Lazy Daze that I've ever seen.  RonB

It's printed on the certification sticker, along with the ID number and serial number.

That could be it.  It is a E-450.

All E450s are wide bodies, not sure why they would add this designation. It's new to us.
At least now you know what you will be looking at.

The unit is being sold by an older couple as part of their estate.  I was able to view the outside but not the inside, so ill try to reach the owners soon and solve this mystery for everyone.

If you’re able to obtain more information, consider posting the year, model, and mileage.  The folks on this Forum will be able to give you some guidance about what to look for and any potential issues.

If this 'WB' is stamped on the outside sticker just behind the driver door, Todd Miller may have a good guess.  Possibly a custom change to the floorplan.   I have seen and been in a modern 'TK.... but not. A 24'  with a partial rear lounge, two chairs on the driver side.  (with consequent loss of the outside storage) It also had a V8 instead of the V10. Not the new V8.  I believe the 5.4 liter Triton.  I remember Lazy Daze offered that as a 'fuel saving' option.  Bill Schriener in the Caravan Club has that rig now as second owner.  (I'm thinking a 2017-2018?)
    WB could have something to do with 'Wheel Base'?     I'm suspecting an older LD in the '80's range. The mystery deepens!      RonB

It's a 2010 model.

The 2010 models were well made with few if any inherent issues to be concerned about.  Now having said that, the proper care and maintenance of a 13 year old model is critical in my opinion.   For example, if this LD has not been used for several years, then getting an expert inspection could help save the buyer some serious repair expenses.  Best of luck.
