Why do bus conversions depreciate at a slower rate than class A motorhomes?
A. The simple answer is “supply and demand”. With over 35,000 Class A motorhomes introduced to the RV market annually by a large number of manufacturers, the depreciation is accelerated every year. There are approximately 300 Prevost conversions produced each year. With this kind of slow controlled growth, owners of conversions produced by reputable, experienced, and financially stable companies should typically enjoy a slower rate of depreciation. Many Class A owners are turning to the used bus conversion market as an alternative to a new class A and avoiding the painful effects of the “D” word.
