As someone who has owned an RV rental business, my advice would be no. Unless you aren't really attached to it. RV rentals is a business, plain and simple. Trying to comingle business with personal items always ends up bad. If you want to make money in RV rentals, start an LLC, buy a cheap stripped down C or entry A, and have at it. Otherwise your personal RV will end up used and abused. RV rentals is a cash heavy business but the RV's heavily depreciate. Miles add up quick and use gets accelerated. This all translates into a high mileage, well worn coach in a very short time. Trying to sell it is tough unless you subtract all that depreciation from your price. There is just really no up-side to doing it with your personal RV. Like I said, it's a business and should be approached that way if you have the inclination. You also lose your faith in humanity really quickly. People are pigs and could care less about a "rental" despite what you charge them for damage and cleaning.
