Average Lifespan of an RV

According to RVshare, the average motorhome or trailer lasts 10 to 20 years. Diesel pushers and Airstream trailers often last 20 to 30 years, while pop-up campers with canvas walls average 10 to 15 years. Key factors affecting longevity include build quality, maintenance habits, storage conditions (UV exposure, humidity, freezing), and accident risk. Deferred maintenance, especially roof leaks, is a common cause of early scrapping.
