I would not do it - the first time some serious & unexpected repair bill
lands the one in possession won't want to pay 100% and the others won't want
to cover their part because they did not break it.

Subject: cooperative Westy ownership?

So at a neighborhood BBQ tonight, someone  (a neighbor that admires our
camper) came up to meand said they were thinking of trying to get together a
small "cooperative" with the purpose of joint ownership of a camper.
Figuring that they would all pay in for maintenance, cleaning, etc., and
knowing they would have to come up with some reasonably democratic and fair
way to allocate time slots.

Seemed like a reasonable enough idea to me to volunteer to put it out to the
group (because I'm not about to volunteer my camper!).

Anyone have any experience with such a thing, or know of such a thing?   A
Google search came up with a couple interesting leads, but I thought I'd ask
the collective Vanagon brain trust.

Thanks

Mark
