Per VINdown's modeling, the Idle Time 8X40 FKS retains an estimated 74% of its value after five years, ranking #559 of 5759 RVs & trailers we track. That is 19 points above the 55% five-year average for Travel Trailer in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Idle Time 8X40 FKS sheds about 5% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $33,525 it falls to around $24,942 by year five — a five-year loss near $8,583, about $4.70 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Idle Time 8X40 FKS bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
