Though my analysis is not as detailed as yours, I will chime in because we have had our coach for a similar time period. 1998 Monaco Windsor, no slides.
Depreciation: Probably $2K, maybe none due to improved condition since purchase.
Maintenance: Around $4000, including new air bags, new shocks, new suspension bushings, roof recoat, fluid changes - all work done by me.
Misc: stored at home, no loan, total around $3000.
This information is in no way intended to be a nyah-nyah to the OP. I wanted to show that the experience can be different, depending on the approach to ownership and maintenance. Like any item out of warranty, we could be one bump or cough away from repairs exceeding the total value.
