Just Stuck on LD October 12, 2020, 06:24:46 pm We just got home from an RV Dealership. We saw a River Run Forester 2021 2861DS. It had every bell and whistle that we wanted. BUT I got that gut feeling. It just does not measure up quality wise. I have my very own Lazy Daze stuck in my head.Several reasons: I have this love of Southern California that has never ended. My parents were RVers living in the dessert for yrs and they traveled all over the West Coast. I am crazy about the idea of my very own Southern Cal build. I am reaching for the time and place in my past and I want to carry on my parents fantastic adventures with something made responsibly. I like the idea of this factory build. I love the idea of where it is built and touring the place. I am not gonna bite on something that is not the quality of a LD Class C. I am getting into the Queue this week. 9 Likes
Re: Just Stuck on LD Reply #1 – October 12, 2020, 10:43:34 pm We made the same decision two years ago and have not regretted it for a minute. When we are home we count the days until we are back on the road in "Makana". You will appreciate the quality build. When we are traveling we are constantly asked by others about our rig. Best of luck.Randy 4 Likes

Re: Just Stuck on LD Reply #3 – October 13, 2020, 09:30:53 am Let's run the numbers on the River Run Forester 2021 2861DS. length 30' 9' ft long2 slid outsGVWR 14500Dry weight 12500give ya 2000 pounds for ya stuffsleeping cap 8 using FAA numbers that means 8*180 pds 1440 poundswater cap 44 gals 352 poundsgas tank 330 poundsno number on propane guessing 10 gallons 42 poundsAfter adding fuel and water ya got about 1400 pds for humans, food, and you other important gear.My point is NOT to pick on this RV company but to point out the interior of any RV is maybe important but that's only the sizzle. The meat is the muscle and bones of the RV. For those ya got to look deeper.glen 3 Likes

Re: Just Stuck on LD Reply #6 – October 13, 2020, 10:40:37 am We have been RVing for 12 years and have owned several Rvs. Over the years I believe the quality of RVs has plummeted. We just sold our 30ft Coachman and we were glad to get rid of the money pit. In the search for our next RV we stumbled across Lazy Daze. I began to notice how difficult it was to find a newer model which in turn told me owners were holding on to their units. That told me everything I needed to know. Needless to say, we are on the waitlist and are eagerly waiting our own Lazy Daze!CheersJulie 4 Likes
