We have a show in Vegas in June. With the economy the way it is, I have been kicking around the idea of grouping together a bunch of folks that usually travel separately. If I could rent/lease/borrow a 6 or 8 horse trailer it would save some money and wear and tear on vehicles. Has anyone ever done this or know of someone who does? We are in the Phoenix/Tucson area.

Thanks for the link. Not exactly what I was looking for. The whole living quarters rental thing opens up a big can of worms. We all have living quarters trailers. Where we are going a L/Q is not necessary so it seems a waste of money to pull 3 rigs when you could combine into one. The contract is a great idea whether it be a private party or a dealership. I have been taught that if you borrow something that it better come back in better shape than it left in. The unwritten rule of "you break it you bought it" comes into play but in today's world you had better get that in writing, notarized,and in triplicate.
