First off, I interested in hearing from some one who has actually participated in a dealer's "buy from us and let us rent it for you" program. I know many people have strong feelings against renting out their million dollar Diesel Pusher. A local dealer here rent's Class A, Class C and Travel trailers. We're considering a 19' bunkhouse model, we're empty nesters, but still working full time, and it's hard for us to get more than about a week to week and 1/2 off at a time anyways, so it might be a viable deal for us, they have an insurance policy that covers it during rentals (we pay for it). So I'm interested in hearing from someone who has actually done this and how it worked out for them.

I could tell you a horror story of what a friend went thru with a local rental outfit close to you. But we did not "actually participated" we only watched him lose a lot of money.
