I'm a little late to this one, but thought it was worth pointing out that the total depreciation suffered by RVs and autos is the same over their lifetime, 100%.
RVs cost more at the outset and are driven less, plus may have a tougher build quality, so they last longer.
Our 18 year old car is about worn out; we'll be buying a new one soon. Our 23 year old coach has about 150,000 mi on it and is still going strong.
So realistically, trying to compare the two is like comparing apples & oranges.
