Per VINdown's modeling, the Trails West 18 5X13 ST 12X12 Slide retains an estimated 60% of its value after five years, ranking #1988 of 5706 RVs & trailers we track. That is 5 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 Trails West 18 5X13 ST 12X12 Slide sheds about 10% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $64,949 it falls to around $38,839 by year five — a five-year loss near $26,110, about $14.31 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Trails West 18 5X13 ST 12X12 Slide bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
