I'm new here and new as an RVer. I have rented a few units over the last couple years and I used to drive a tractor trailer so I'm not a newbie at driving with trailers and weights. I've scaled my tow vehicle wet, all passengers and axle weights. I understand all my limits and I'm within all allowable parameters once I have a load leveling/sway control system. I only have 1000lbs of extra cargo capacity (after accounting for water, fuel, propane, batteries) but I'm not full-timing. We limit the kids to one backpack of stuff on every vacation.
We are in the process of buying a Keystone 272BHSWE (bunk-house) which I'm planning on putting into a rental fleet. I won't use an RV enough to justify it sitting in my driveway (or storage) so I ran the numbers on putting it into the rental fleet. I'd keep it in there for about 3-years and then flip it or just park it in my driveway. I expect rental service will be hard on it but I'd rather have a well used trailer for less financial pain than a pristine one that cost me an arm and a leg.
Has anyone here done something like this? Any words of wisdom would be welcome before I commit.
