Took me a while, but 24W, no slide correct? That maybe the reason for the low NADA value. Most folks tend to want slides, right or wrong.
We have a 24ft coachmen, with a slide. Others will disagree with me, but in my world, having that slide is a big deal. And I personally, would not consider a rig without one. Especially if you have kids, or are not small people
Interesting...we, too, have a 25ft Coachmen that we intentionally chose without slides. We're super content not to have one. Granted, we are just two people, but we travel with dogs the size of small kids (60 & 70 lbs) who like to sprawl in the middle of the aisle...and we're not small in the vertical direction. ;) Definitely an individual choice. We made an easy mod that opened our space up tremendously, but I won't derail this thread unless it's useful to the OP or others.
I think I am wrong, I don't think maybe, it has anything to do with slide or no slide. I think it has to do with the MSRP and years.
According to NADA 1999 24w Winnie, MSRP in 99 51K, present value about 8K. or about 2700 per year for 15 years
My 2001 Coachmen, MSRP 57K present value about 17k, so 40K in 13 years, or a little over 3K per year. So the Winnie has done better, without a slide.
I stand corrected
