Yup, these things lose value like...A boat!
If you are not afraid of doing small repairs and have cash in hand, talk to the dealers about getting something that is being traded in, before it goes through the recon system.
A good friend picked up a nice class A unit for a considerable discount a few years ago. 23000 cash and book value was 72000. Put about 3500 into repairs and he has had 4 trouble free years with it. I could not tell you what the name of it is or the exact year, but it is nice and clean and under 10 years old.
