Most of the loss lands early: the Starcraft SLS 5 DC sheds about 14% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $55,742 it falls to around $36,232 by year five — a five-year loss near $19,510, about $10.69 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Starcraft SLS 5 DC bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
