First thing we did was limit the search to gassers as they are much less expensive to maintain.
What do you guys think?
Diesels are not more to maintain, they cost more to buy because they are better at the job than a gasser.
Sorry, but after 25 years(that's when Diesel motorhomes became mass produced) of dealing with Diesels versus gassers, having a Diesel just is like the difference between a Hi line Mercedes and a Cadillac. BOTH will do the job, but you pay more for the Mercedes because you can afford it. NOT because the Mercedes does a "better" job. Same with Diesels. I have had scores of customers(usually fulltimers) that have traded in Diesels for Gassers because they realized they had in excess of 50k invested in the Diesel upgrade cost from a gasser and that cost just sat there when they were camping. These are people that drive less than 10k a year which is the norm. If you want ALL the bells and whistles(added weight) in your Motorhome, then Diesel is the way to go. Doug
