There are other little differences to go along with solid core doors...like 100k or more. The main difference between Most diesel coaches and gassers is one thing...the engine. Allegro open Road Diesel, Allegro Open Road Gasser, for example. Very much the same coach as far as quality is concerned. Don't make the mistake of expecting a lot of high end stuff in a coach just because it has a diesel engine...you have to pay more, a lot more, to get the luxury extras...an Entegra for example can cost up to 700 thousand dollars. Beautiful coach but that beauty don't come cheap!
I have to disagree with the only difference in an Allegro RED and Allegro Open Road is the engine. Build quality is similar (both excellent), however there are many differences that justify the cost. Better towing capacity (with 360HP/3000 Allison), storage capacity inside and out, air ride, air brakes, exhaust brake, fuel mileage, larger fuel tank, larger water/waste tanks, better seating surfaces (vinyl vs leather), better flooring and it goes on. We purchased our 2016 Tiffin Open Road 36LA Jun 2015 and it was great (except for ride/handling) until we drove a 2016 Tiffin Allegro RED 37PA. Most of the time you get what you pay for.
