Looking for a rental location in SF Bay Area

Yeah, I have to agree with Tripod on his observations. I think my brother wanted to borrow mine once...at least I did not have to say no. I am hoping my kids don't want to borrow it either...each of them mangled a car or two before they grew up...

I believe the dealer in Massachusetts rents TM's (MCD?). Or at least they did, at some point, although that's quite a haul for you to try one out. If you are interested, I'm sure a current TM owner in NoCal would be willing to give you the grand tour of their unit. It would probably be alot more insightful that a tour by a dealer.

You are correct, MCD on the cape stills rents TMs and will deliver to a few campgrounds in the area for you. A little far from SF but for anyone in the NE area that is looking to do the same as you, its a nice thing to know.

Good luck in your search.

I just found this post on Craigslist in San Jose, CA:

It looks like a smaller TM, possibly a 2619?

I just want to second much of what ng2951 said especially the point about the amount of windows and thus good views and light. It is something that took me a minute to appreciate in my 2720, but now really appreciate.

You might want to post on this thread your location so Forum members who live nearby could respond. While not as good as renting; spending time with a seasoned TMer might be the next best thing. We're sorry you were unable to visit our Rally in Petaluma in early April.

Hi Shandysplace,

I am located in SF, Bay Area. Just came back from camping in Yosemite National Park. It was great.

I shared my cousin's Tent Railer. It was my first tent trailer experience. It was much nicer than a tent, but I am set on having a hard shell all around.

I am still looking for a rental opportunity before purchasing.

I will keep my fingers crossed that an opportunity will present itself hear in the SF Bay Area.
