Only way to get the price you paid for an RV, when you sell, is to not buy one in the first place. These products, like most, will depreciate over time and, almost without exception, never sell for the same as the previous purchase price. For example, we bought a FW in 1993 for $14,400, a Jayco Eagle 215SD, and sold it in the fall of 2011 for $4,000. However, if you measure how much pleasure we derived from the FW over the 18 years, not to mention savings on motel rooms and eating in restaurants all the time, while on the road, I don't feel we got taken when we sold.
