Most of the loss lands early: the Gulf Stream 259BH sheds about 10% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $28,511 it falls to around $13,514 by year five — a five-year loss near $14,997, about $8.22 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Gulf Stream 259BH bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
