[Highly suspect] Lazy Daze Information "Website"
I found this website that has reviewed and reported on a broad range of information pertaining to Lazy Daze.  Most of the information is more or less accurate and some information is less so IMO.

Lazy Daze RV Problems and Reviews (Are Lazy Daze RVs Good?)

Maybe 🤔 others will find this LD information of interest at least once?

The article is a bit cringe worthy, with erroneous gems like

“As the company grew and technology changed, Lazy Daze put in thermal pane windows to encourage all season camping. In other words, the insulation in these vehicles was very good.”

“We did check the Lazy Daze website, https://www.lazydays.com/accessories”


It’s pretty poorly written article, good for a few laughs, but that’s about it.

Hi Margee;  Thanks for access to the article. Interesting to see how a 'writer'  can come up with 'stuff' with no real research!   Poorly written, and rambling, he got many things wrong.  Confusing three different lengths with only three floorplans was as Dave stated 'laughable'.
    So he stated that many times the company wouldn't include things that people wanted!  I can only imagine at what some of those things could be!  He also said that there was a metal frame.  The chassis were steel.  LD did put in gusseted steel frame stiffeners as sort of a 'cage protection'.  Not to be called a 'Roll cage' by anyone who has a real vehicle roll cage.  (My Dune Buggy has a full tubular steel roll cage).  Wood it is, which has many advantages, although I do wish that it had included some type of moisture resistance treatment.
    A problem with insulation!  The walls on my previous Non LD motorhome were about  1-1/4" thick, mostly styrofoam, and standard glass windows. Slightly thinner than an eighth of an inch.  The Lazy Daze was much sturdier and better insulated. The double thickness (single pane) windows were appreciated.   In later years the insulation changed to block closed cell polyethylene foam. A great improvement.  Dual thermal pane windows... I'll stick with the windows I have, thanks.
    Lazy Daze stood behind their product, but it was made clear from the beginning that warranty coverage for appliances was from whoever made the appliances. Stove, oven, water heater, lighting, plumbing, power converters, were all top quality for the time.  The electrical wiring has always been top notch especially the 12 ga. wiring throughout. I've seen some really bad (wiring) stuff out there from other brands!

Literally randomness.  Looks like a very cheaply AI-generated bunch of babble.  But hey, we all just upped the value of that guy's website by adding a bunch of clicks to his click-bait, and on sites like that, it's all about the clicks.

Hi Dave;    You may have just revealed Phil Nash's "contribution" to be exactly worthless.  It could be that the 'chatbot' grabbed his article to parrot, or vice versa.  Reminds me of a song lyric: "Money for nothing and clicks for free"! (ok! slightly altered)   Hard to believe that clicks can be worth much. I thought the clicks had to be on ad's embedded in his drivel.  He obviously doesn't know what a VPN is or how it works either.          RonB

With such options as ChatGPT available, younger people will not develop critical thinking skills and will not be able to write.

I've modified the topic title to alert folks on future searches that the info in that website is not reliable.  This is not the kind of content we wish to validate by pointing to or encouraging new members to check out that site.

If anyone feels I should "break" the link so it's not clickable (I would modify it so you could read the link URL but not click it), let me know.
