Just FYI, I know the Florida Sunshiners and Dixielanders have, in the past at least, had rallies at LazyDays in Seffner FL (Tampa). I just learned that effective immediately, they will no longer give free meal tickets with campground registrations. Supposedly to keep from having to raise fees. The restaurant will still be open but will be cash/card only.

Some 30 years ago I was parts manager for Lazy Days. At the time they were family owned, and very focused on customer satisfaction.
From what I hear now, they have gotton away from that.

I've spent at least 2 weeks every year at the Seffner LazyDays for the past 5 years. Solely because their rally facilities are nearly the only game in town. The service bays are full and the waiting list is long. For all that, the consensus of opinion among my pusher friends and acquaintances is that they rank above Camping World and General RV. That isn't saying much at all.

The "free lunches" never were that great and at times not worth the hassle.

As a GMCer, I never would have had work done there by their techs. They aren't
mechanics, they just read what the computer tells them, then replace parts until
finally "it's fixed".
