Thanks - so at 10 mpg on average i can see how often I would have to fill up....
I know that gas engines typically do not last as long as diesel...but I am leaning towards a gas engine because:
The average RV is less than diesel
Maintenance is usually less
And - if I have heard this correctly, I can get an RV serviced at any auto service center that can service a car (as long as they have the capacity to accommodate the size of the RV - and I am getting one that is less than 30 ft...) which is nice if something happens on the road.
