Jayco 260 keeps an estimated 75% of its value after 5 years — #628 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 Jayco 260 retains an estimated 75% of its value after five years, ranking #628 of 5948 RVs & trailers we track. That is 20 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 Jayco 260 sheds about 5% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $36,834 it falls to around $27,625 by year five — a five-year loss near $9,209, about $5.05 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Jayco 260 bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
