Have you ever, or would you ever ....

No and one of the main reasons I have a Truck Camper with a manual tranny. No one in my family knows how to drive a stick. So no problem.

If someone did ask to borrow it, and knew how to drive a stick, I'd explain my insurance doesn't cover anyone else driving my rig. I have no idea if my insurance covers another or not, but I have no reason to check either.

No one no how no way.

NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS :E

Ditto on double "NO" -
you may lose a friend or start a family feud when/if something goes wrong, damaged, breaks, etc., etc.

Bad karma.

So you would rent it to them but not loan it. I guess you are all about money. :@

Not rent it from us.... they can go rent their own.

No and no to loaning it out. If they want mine specifically they can buy it.

NO & NO

I have and would consider doing so again depending on how the person drives and takes care of their things. Why not share the blessing?

Sorry, nope.

Daughter and son-in-law? Yes.
Friend? No.

At a company BBQ at a nearby lake we were asked if we would bring our canoe. We politely declined without an explanation.

It is not a cheap aluminum beater. It is a top end lightweight kevlar canoe. I am not about to let some half drunk coworker who last canoed at Disneyland 30 years ago crash it into rocks and drag it up and down the gravel beach.

We have let:

1. My brother and his family camp for a week at Hunting Island.

2. My DH's niece and her family camp at Gulf Shores State Park for a week.

3. A great friend from church celebrated her daughter's 16th birthday and had a slumber party with 5 other 16s for a weekend.

Now, with that said, we took the camper and set it up, then when they were using it, we went somewhere else (once on a mission trip close by; one time on a cruise and the other time, the campground was about 30 mins from home) while it was being used. We then checked it out, closed it down and returned it to our home. We would not let them tow it because none of them have any experience towing anything.

My other brother does have experience towing and I would let him borrow it, but he has no desire to camp.

Other friends, possibly, but if my toilet gets stopped up, THEY will have to come and clean it out. This is told to them up-front.
