If you go for a Class A diesel pusher with an air bag suspension, yes you will get a better ride, but because it's bigger and heavier, your fuel mileage go down. We get about 6.5 miles to the gallon, but how many miles a year are you going to really put on it? These are diesel pushers and they have a quiet ride up front. If you have to run the generator at night, it's up front and you're in the rear.
If you buy a smaller class A, the weight will go down and the mileage will go up, maybe to 8 MPG. In 10,000 miles you'll save about 350 gallons. The smaller Class As though have a gas engine up front. More noise while driving and the generator is in the rear (usually) which may be a pain when trying to sleep. They also have spring suspension and ride rougher a DP.
