We are planning to upgrade our travel trailer to a Class A motorhome and plan to travel extensively around the United States. We have been told by folks with diesel pushers that we "must" purchase a diesel pusher or we will not be able to cross the mountainous states, e.g. Rockies. Is it true that you need a diesel pusher or can a Class A Gas motorhome suffice?
Anything will work, but IMHO the Diesel is just head and shoulders better.
Budget wise it is considerably more $$$ but often a good used one is a Bargain.
Easier to drive - Smoother riding - more storage - better floor plans (Some) and yes better in the Mountains especially the Engine Brake for going down.
