Yes we have one
The real question is what is your camping leisure..style? How much will you use the generator?
If your going to be camping weigh hookups, going to resorts etc... using the generator very little, stick to LP
However, If you come from tent camping, and intent to do lots of dry camping in the backwoods or beach with no hookups, having a diesel generator running from the main fuel tank, has the runtime advantage over lp
Why stick with LP under the conditions you described? What if any advantage is there to the LP over the diesel? I personally don't use my generator a lot, but it's a diesel and there was no way I would have got an LP for the very reasons the OP described.
