Most of the loss lands early: the Coleman By Dutchmen 285BH sheds about 14% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $39,218 it falls to around $19,922 by year five — a five-year loss near $19,296, about $10.57 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Coleman By Dutchmen 285BH bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
