Most of the loss lands early: the Palomino By Forest River 381FL sheds about 6% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $75,059 it falls to around $52,015 by year five — a five-year loss near $23,044, about $12.63 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Palomino By Forest River 381FL bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
