I have also read of other owners forgetting something and this is from those of who know about TMs. This could prove to be very costly should you loan it out. I would carefully consider loaning it out even it it meant getting more use out of your TM!
I would not have any problems loaning my TM to family members as long as they had the proper tow vehicle, hitch, etc. I would recommend that these close relatives have camping experience and been with me for at least one trip. Accidents will happen anytime, anywhere. That's what insurance is for. I have a printed detailed set of instructions for set up and tear down, step for step. Anyone borrowing my TM knows to be careful and be responsible or else....
