Shopping at Lazydays?

Has anyone bought a motorhome from Lazydays? I'll be close to the one in Tampa in a couple of weeks and I thought I would see what they can do for me. Good or bad experiences is what I need to know. Thanks!
  • Thanks for the replies, y'all! We tried to find reviews online and only found one. It made Lazydays sound like the worse place in the country to buy an RV! When you hear one very bad review you have to wonder about it.
  • The least happy squawk the loudest in reviews and on these forums. Most happy folk go about their business and are less likely to give a review unless they are exceedingly happy.

    I would suggest you not go by LD. We went by a few months ago and it ended up costing lots of $$$. You will find something you want and it will cost you.

    We purchased when the snowbirds were returning home.. They were really busy and their service suffered because of being so busy. Because of their selection I would buy from them again


    Rather confusing! Which side of the fence are you on! HMMMMMM, the top!
  • Was just at Lazy Days last month with my buddy who is shopping for a used Class A diesel pusher. They had a lot of nice units there; I thought they were kind of high priced and salesmen/supervisors really don't want to negotiate. However we were treated like VIPs the entire time we were there; free camping on-site, free meals, golf cart transportation, etc. If you want to see a LOT of product and prepared to settle with their bottom-line it's the place to go. Everyone there was very respectful, knowledgeable, and low-key.
  • Thanks again for all of the replies! LD sounds pretty good overall. I'll be down there just before Christmas. Who knows...maybe a Christmas present?
  • We just bought our HR Vacationer there, at the Tucson location. Most of the transaction was handled over the phone and online. After a bit of negotiating, we got close enough to my numbers and made the deal. In our case, we were downsizing from a used DP with tag axle to a new 2015 gas MH. We got a substantial amount of money back.

    We'll be heading back to Tucson for Christmas and plan to have a few warranty things done. I'll know more about their service department after that.

    So far, I'd say we're satisfied with the experience there and the new coach. It's funny. My wife really loves the smaller motorhome and we're not giving up much at all. I've found that it handles well, even with a moderate cross wind. The systems are simpler, but it does 95% of what we're used to.
  • I bought new from Lazy Days last March and I have no regrets. They were very professional, knew their product and there was no high pressure sales tactics. Their price was fair, just a little less than I could have purchased the same type of motorhome here in Texas. I would buy from there again. I made the mistake of just stopping by there on a trip my wife and I took. Others who bought there that we met called Lazy Days "The Hotel California". As in "you can check in you can and never leave". I guess you would have to stay there to understand the humor in that saying.
  • Every RVer should go to Lazdays if only to look around and marvel at how big it is. It is definitely the Disney World of RV dealers. Quite impressive. They have a huge assortment of RVs and a staff that has the skills to fix just about anything that can go wrong. The Tampa store has over 100 service bays. Of course there can be some glitches in service, the same as at any dalership.

    I bought two new DP's from them and I would go back for a third when the time comes.
  • I have not purchased a Class A from them (yet) but I did purchase a new TT from them a few years ago. I was very pleased with the sales experience.
