When we first got our DP we rented, usually but not always, from Enterprise. Then we towed for years, and now with the Gemini, we are renting again. Pro's and con's to both sides, I like not having the hassle of not being able to back up, having to find space to disconnect and re-connect, but truthfully renting can sometimes be a hassle, too. Setting up a car and motorhome to tow, correctly and safely is not exactly inexpensive, and I am not in favor of cost saving shortcuts, which are almost always going to compromise safety. Renting can be convenient, as can towing your own wheels, and frankly you can find yourself in a remote area, when rentals are not available, and there you are with no spare wheels. We are rarely that remote, so for us renting is working well for us, at least for now. You just have to decide which works best for your particular travel style.
