Per VINdown's modeling, the Gulf Stream 18RBD retains an estimated 48% of its value after five years, ranking #4629 of 5706 RVs & trailers we track. That trails the 55% five-year average for Travel Trailer in its class by 7 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Gulf Stream 18RBD sheds about 41% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $38,600 it falls to around $18,605 by year five — a five-year loss near $19,995, about $10.96 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Gulf Stream 18RBD bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
