The thing about a rental is that by and large they are well treated by users. Often from Europe, they are on a very tight leash as to that they can and cannot do with the unit. Plus, they are well maintained. There are only a few major companies in Canada and they have centres in most major cities and one in Whitehorse.
As an example...they are not permitted to leave the blacktop. Now, they have been sighted in some remote locations, for sure, but for the most part, not.
I am going to come back to rot...and that won't matter as far as mileage. Roof, corners, clearance lights, back wall, take the bed out of the top area and look for stains. Everything else is not a BIG deal, but rot? Unless someone in your group has carpentry skills, that rot will eat your bank account.

on edit...I tried to un-mangle a few lines.
