In America (or at least in Nevada) liability ultimately rests with the owner not the driver who causes an accident!
Sounds ridiculous but it's true. As a private guy, I don't have the resources to protect myself or pursue you like a
commercial renter would.
Buy the vehicle with a small downpayment (exactly equivalent to a 'rental' rate and security deposit) and return
it when you are done. This is going to be a legitimate sale and a legitimate return or annulment of the sale upon
return. It is not complex.
1) Call your insurance agent to add your new vehicle to your policy. (For me this is $120 for 6 months
- cheap because they know RV's aren't driven a lot. You'll get est. $110 back when you terminate your policy upon
return (make sure the policy you order doesn't have a minumum and instead charges pro-rata, or get the whole amount back if
you tell them the sale didn't go through. Your insurance agent needs to fax proof of insurance.
2) Go to DMV to pick up temp registration. I'm going to sell to you, they will issue temp tag to
have us smog first which we tape to the windshield, I keep paperwork and shred upon you returning safely because we decided
to cancel the sale :)
I bet you'll have questions. I too want this to work so I welcome all criticisms. Email me at
