Thanks for the information KristinU. I put this here because I was assuming that rental units while built a bit more solidly overall would use cheaper material and insulation resulting in more road noise.
Commercial rental units are structurally no different from their consumer grade counterparts with a few exceptions. You will not see things like retractable steps on most rental units. Some rental companies do not use slides. You will also see things like more robust hinges on exterior hatches. Two piece rear bumpers are rapidly becoming the norm, as is LED lighting throughout. The main differences you will see is in the systems and the interior furnishings. The systems are designed to be idiot-proof, easy to operate and easy to work on. The interiors are fitted out with more robust interior components but less overall "frills". Linoleum instead of carpeting. Zippered fabric seat covers instead of faux leather. Basic window treatments. No fancy valances. Appliances are all standard grade. You get the idea.
