Why should you purchase a motorhome direct from the
factory?
By eliminating the "middle man" or retail dealer we are able to offer
our new motorhome purchaser a better value for their money.
Selling directly from our factory has numerous advantages. One of the biggest
advantages is the quality/price relationship created using this direct
marketing approach.
Our true factory direct sales allows us to offer an exceptionally solid, high
quality, very well equipped coach at an extremely competitive price when
compared to other "high end" class C motorhomes.
If we had a retail dealer network, the MSRP (manufacturer's suggested retail
price) would average $15,000.00 more per coach than our factory direct
wholesale pricing.
Why? Additional overhead. By eliminating the retail dealer, we are able to
eliminate unnecessary cost such as destination charges (the cost to drive the
motorhome from the manufacturer to the selling dealer), flooring cost (the cost
to finance the coach while it sits unsold on the dealer lot), pre delivery
inspection "PDI" charges (the cost to inspect the motorhome prior to
delivery to be sure the components etc. operate ), dealer overhead (the dealers
facility, maintenance, insurance, personnel, washing and maintaining product
inventory etc.) and of course dealer profit (the additional mark-up that is
added above and beyond the original manufacturers profit).
So as you can see, buying a big ticket item such as a motorhome directly from
the factory can add up to big savings!
Since we build our coaches to order, our customers are able to select from our
available choices in floor plans, colors and options. This in turn helps avoid
the compromising that commonly occurs when purchasing a new "pre
built" coach from a dealer's inventory. Because we build to order, you
will never end up with a coach that may have been sitting on a dealer's lot for
months on end with lookers wandering in and out of it daily.
Another advantage of our direct sales is the low mileage on the odometer when
the coach is picked up at the factory on delivery day. The majority of new
coaches sold today have been driven from the manufacturer to the selling
dealer. In many cases, they have hundreds or even thousands of potentially hard
driven miles on the odometer. When you pick up a new Lazy Daze it has minimal
mileage (generally well under 100 miles) on the odometer. This allows the owner
to know how the new engine, transmission and brakes have been broken in to
maximize longevity.
A final spin off advantage of our factory sales is the personal relationship
created between our customers and staff. We are able to receive direct customer
feedback which helps us continually advance our product and its features to an
even higher level.
