Your opinion about renting a 2005 Winnebago chalet

Hello,
I am about to start a 6 months trip with my family (children aged from 6 months old to 11 years). I found a Winnebago chalet from 2005 to rent and would like to have your opinion about it: It is the first time we will be traveling with an RV and we don't know anything about mechanics. Is it risky to rent a 2005 RV and should we rather look for a more recent vehicle?
The name of the company that rents it is "transatlantic auto and rv center". Does anyone know this company and can we trust them?

Thank you

Barbette

  • No experience with rentals, but I just looked at Transatlantic's website and this disclaimer really jumped off the page at me:

    Transatlantic has no liability for damages or breakdowns.

    Especially on a seven-year-old rig, I'd be nervous about that clause.
