Leasing

I'm a newbie, just learning the ropes. Does anyone know if it is possible to lease a rig for a few months?

Thanks.

I think it depends on what you want to do with it. For a fashion or movie shoot, there are lots of willing owners.

If you want to hitch up and take the family cross country it might be more difficult because of the damage, insurance, liability issues. It's just not worth it for most owners.

Leasing

Thanks for the response.

I was thinking more of dealers who see short term leases as a money making venture and would have thought through all the hurdles you mention.

But, you gave me an idea of maybe just posting my interest around on boards and see if there is any interest.

Welcome to the forums. I think you will find that dealers who rent do not rent Airstreams. They are too expensive to pay out during a rental contract term. It would be like going to Enterprise and asking to rent a Mercedes. They may have one somewhere in the country but it would cost you a fortune to rent.
There are dealers who will rent other brands if you just want to try camping. Remember that when you switch to an Airstream the experience only gets better.
Good luck to you.

I am working on behalf of a corporate client that would like to rent a 28' Airstream for one week (starting a week from now!). They want to put it on their office site in Northern California as a place to meet w/ potential employees.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In Phoenix, AZ, there is a place that rents out an airstream.
It's a 2006 Safari model and from what i recall it is a 25' one.
It was very nice and really clean.
