Most of the loss lands early: the R Pod 189 sheds about 8% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $30,065 it falls to around $18,640 by year five — a five-year loss near $11,425, about $6.26 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used R Pod 189 bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
