Most of the loss lands early: the Heartland Rvs 3970RD sheds about 6% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $103,397 it falls to around $73,101 by year five — a five-year loss near $30,296, about $16.60 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Heartland Rvs 3970RD bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
