Production Life Span May 31, 2020, 01:46:30 pm Any idea how long Lazy Daze will be producing motorhomes? I'm probably 3 to 5 yrs away from ordering. Once Lazy Daze is gone, that will be the end of quality built class c's with all those big windows. Lynn

Re: Production Life Span Reply #2 – May 31, 2020, 02:59:07 pm I think we might see a small resurrection of small independent businesses building things that are quality made.Lazy Daze has an advantage in that they have been doing it that way all along.How long Steve decides to do it, is another thing.
Re: Production Life Span Reply #3 – May 31, 2020, 03:21:49 pm No one can tell you, because I don't think anyone here knows. If I was in your shoes, I would order sooner rather than later.It's a rough time for small business. It's a rough time for manufacturing. It's a rough time for small manufacturing in CA. Small businesses have a hard time transferring between generations. LazyDaze is that last manufacturer I know of with the low volume, high quality, factory direct model for Class C RVs. They have already beaten the odds. There are good reasons that all of the others have closed.Sorry to be pessimistic. This isn't a prediction based on any kind of specific knowledge about LazyDaze.
