There you go. My parents owned 4 RVs and they always* bought used. Nicest was a mid 2000 Monaco diesel pusher. They drove all over NA for years and loved it. Their house had enough space to keep it onsite so it was a guest suite when not in use. They paid somewhere around $140K for it - similar original sticker to what fingpilot quoted. They sold it a few years ago for something like $100K.
* My Dad is older now and not making the best decisions. He took the money from the Monaco sale and bought a new '09 RoadTrek RS Adventurous. It currently has a grand total of 10K miles on it - they are just too old to use it. I'm guessing they lost 50% to depreciation alone
I was tasked to sell it
selling-rv-advice last year this time but that never came to pass. Maybe this year.
