Black Book: Wholesale RV Values Dip as Autumn Arrives – RVBusiness – Breaking RV Industry News
Black Book, which publishes a family of vehicle appraisal guides, has released the Black Book RV market commentary for October.
“The average values for Motorhomes and Towables sold at auction fell slightly last month. Once again, motorhomes saw an unusually high percentage of expensive Class As crossing the block. The towable decrease is likely due to the beginnings of seasonal patterns. As more 2025 models continue to arrive on dealer’s lots we expect used values to trend downward as we head further into Fall,” reported Eric Lawrence, Black Book principal analyst – specialty markets.
“Taking a closer look at the markets, we see that the average selling price for motorized units was $68,309, which is down $2,047 (2.9%) from the previous month. Towables came in at $19,048, down $263 (1.3%) from last month. One year ago the average motorhome sold for $68,166 and the average towable unit brought $21,053.”
Auction volume was mixed: motorhomes decreased 12.5% while towables increased 0.1%.
The average age of motorhomes was 10 years old (2014) and towables was five (2019).
