Starcraft 289BHS keeps an estimated 71% of its value after 5 years — #740 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 Starcraft 289BHS retains an estimated 71% of its value after five years, ranking #740 of 5948 RVs & trailers we track. That is 16 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 Starcraft 289BHS sheds about 6% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $33,388 it falls to around $23,738 by year five — a five-year loss near $9,650, about $5.29 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Starcraft 289BHS bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
