Most of the loss lands early: the Salem By Forest River 31KQBTSX sheds about 20% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $62,299 it falls to around $28,408 by year five — a five-year loss near $33,891, about $18.57 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Salem By Forest River 31KQBTSX bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
