Per VINdown's modeling, the Lance 825 retains an estimated 49% of its value after five years, ranking #4492 of 5759 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 Lance 825 sheds about 18% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $39,838 it falls to around $19,480 by year five — a five-year loss near $20,358, about $11.16 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Lance 825 bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
