My situation is unusual. We want a good trailer for a single, 6-month trip. We won't need it after that. Given what I've heard in this forum about resale values, I'm searching for a way to make this...

Thanks for all the input. I think I need to explain my situation better. The trip is a bucket list trip for my wife and I. We want to see the country, visit friends, and explore for a new place to live.
I'm not opposed to depreciation. I fully expect to lose money on the deal. My concern was how much would I lose and how long and difficult will the resale process be. If I buy a trailer for 25k and then, after the trip I can sell if for 20k in 4 - 6 weeks, that would be fine. However, if it takes a year to sell if for 12k, that would be a problem.
So, I guess what I should have asked is, what might I expect to get for a 6-month-old trailer that cost me 25k, and how long would it typically take to find a buyer.
Thanks again for your time and expertise!!!
