Heartland RVs 397 keeps an estimated 41% of its value after 5 years — #5446 of 5706 RVs & trailers VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Heartland RVs 397 retains an estimated 41% of its value after five years, ranking #5446 of 5706 RVs & trailers we track. That trails the 55% five-year average for Travel Trailer in its class by 14 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Heartland RVs 397 sheds about 17% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $173,385 it falls to around $70,394 by year five — a five-year loss near $102,991, about $56.43 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Heartland RVs 397 bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
