Gulf Stream 26TH keeps an estimated 49% of its value after 5 years — #4561 of 5948 RVs & trailers VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Gulf Stream 26TH retains an estimated 49% of its value after five years, ranking #4561 of 5948 RVs & trailers we track. That trails the 55% five-year average for Travel Trailer in its class by 6 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Gulf Stream 26TH sheds about 12% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $32,305 it falls to around $15,958 by year five — a five-year loss near $16,347, about $8.96 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Gulf Stream 26TH bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
