Wow.
My newly purchased in 2013 gas powered coach cost me up front 130,000$ CDN tax in
maintenance for 3 years only 100$ total for annual oil changes. $4500 in insurance
50 nights per yr camping
Todays value with CDN $ 130,000.
total cost $4600.
Mine might ride a little rougher, stop a little slower some say a bit noisier but I will take it any day.
Mr. Dezolen,
You purchased a new gas coach 3 yrs. ago and it still has the same value? A very rare situation.
What is happening in Canada causing this value?
Just curious.

He is calculating in US dollars, when he paid in Canadians. . When your base currency loose its value by 30 percent, the numbers on RV value stay the same. :D
better rethink this post because he paid 130K CDN
If he had paid 130US then yes it would still be worth around 130CDN
but he said CDN
Yep, he did say CDN.... As Judge Judy would say, If it doesn't make sense, then it's not true. She never seems to be wrong.

Bought in 2013 when Cdn $ was at par for same price as US$. Today our Cdn dollar is worth approx. 30% less. I am seeing used 36LA's in Canada going upwards over 130,000 in Canadian $ so yes mine and many more units have not lost any value. Numerous car dealers are selling used Canadian cars to US dealers due to the currency fluctuation.
Thank you for explaining.
Safe travels,
MM.
