We've owned a 2003 MidBath for 5 years and have really enjoyed it.
I would NOT expect a dealer to be any help in locating one. Most are sold via private sale. Join the Yahoo Lifewithalazydaze group, which has classified ads. The group is moving to a new format soon, so expect some changes.
We found ours via RVTrader. I also searched craigslist (especially in CA) while we were shopping. There are some owners who aren't aware of the LWALD group and those 2 outlets are popular.
Be patient AND be willing to travel. Factory production has slowed down a lot while demand seems to have kept up. From what I can see, this has made the used market very competitive. Because each new LD is sold in CA, they can be scarce along the east coast.
All is not lost. There are still gently used LazyDaze coaches that come up for sale from time to time. The pattern is familiar. Someone buys a new LD upon retirement and travels for a few years. 25k later, health issues or other interests crop up and the coach sits unused for a few years. Finally it is put up for sale and someone else gets a chance to enjoy it.
Even with the quality of build, be aware of and check for water intrusion particularly around the rear end caps and around the overhead bunk. We checked ours quite well and still ended up with a small amount of damage near an end cap related to a screw added soon after manufacturing (before we owned it). Fl is some distance from the LD factory, and very few repair shops along the east coast have much experience with the different way LazyDaze builds their coaches.
Good Luck!
