Lazy Daze Owners' Group

My Little LD History

 Chris Horst suggested I post this reply to his question to the whole group. So here it goes.

We've owned two LDs. The first one was a 17' in '72 (Bought from Ed &
> Paul). It had a "wet bath and PortiPotti) The second a 2000 26' diesel (7.3 PowerStroke) MB that Ed sold us
> (The wait time was only 6 mos in those days). We traded the MB in 2012 and
> moved to an SOB (33' Bounder Class A w/ 3 TVs and a fireplace). We were doing work for Good Sam
> Rallies and thought we needed more room. Like most SOBs the Bounder had
> lots of quality issues (returned to the factory 4 times to correct issues). Had that for 2 1/2 yrs and got rid of it (Too
> big and too many problems). Since we started our RVing life in VW
> microbusses (2 that I converted and a '76 Westphalia conversion) we decided to go to a Class B by Winnebago (2015). The
> Mercedes Sprinter was a great vehicle but again, the workmanship of the
> Winnie conversion was poor. So... After three years we just recently sold
> the Winnebago ERA and found a used LD that Todd at the Mothership put us
> on to. Its one of the three '09 32' Kodiak LDs that Steve built for
> full-timing. It's an Island bed model and will be perfect for a couple of
> years of continuing our rambling around this great country. It is
> low-mileage and has been stored indoors so is in great shape. We'll tow a
> 2014 Honda CRV.
After 7 RVs and 2 sailboats we're moving back to a Lazy Daze
> (Should have stayed there). 

> That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Great job on getting a rare and classic Kodiak LD. I’ve saved several pics of the Kodiak that have posted on LDOF and love revisiting them.

Here they are for those who may be unfamiliar with this beauty.

I gotta say, that Kodiak is a nice rig. A Duramax Diesel would be a plus.
