IMO, this is true of any used anything you buy from anybody. In what way do you suspect that a system might be "abused" and weren't all of us, users with little or no knowledge of systems at one time.
After reading these forums for the last 14 years, I seem to recall more than a few people professing to being "newbys" and needing help. Wouldn't that put the newbys in the same class as renters and by extension, possibly damaging a system and then selling the abused rig later?
It is my feelings that RV renters are as concerned about causing damage to the rented unit as newbys are and for the same reason. Most users, be they owners or renters are concerned with the extremely high cost of repairs should they damage something. In fact renters for the most part have no choice but to pay for repairs caused by abuse where a owner has the choice of paying for repairs or fixing themselves.
Now if a rig is rented to someone for Burning Man or Coachella, all bets are off.
