Get the diesel and you have zero warranty, on everything. Get the 2013 Gas unit and you have a warranty on everything. 
You will not wear out either engine, so forget about mileage. If you read the forum very much, you will find that both diesels and gassers can have problems, so a warranty is important. You will also find that an extended warranty for a vehicle that is 6 years old is almost useless. The difference in total fuel costs and fuel mileage is so even that it is not worth mentioning.
Pick the floor plan that suits your needs. If you plan on towing a vehicle less than 5000 pounds, both will work just fine.
I've had DP's and gassers and right now I have a gasser. I put 15,000-20,000 miles per year on my coach and feel that it is the best choice for the way that we travel now.
