We moved from our Monaco DP to a Ford gasser, and that was a HUGE factor in our decision. To get the DP serviced - oil, all the filters, water separators, grease, etc - I couldn't get out of the repair shop for less than $800. We just had our Ford sericed yesterday and it came to a grand total of $71.
As far as repair shops go, I know it goes against the grain of alot of members here, but I always take my stuff back to the people who built it. I may pay a tiny bit more by always bringing my F53 gasser back to Ford, but I will never have to hear "We don't know whats wrong". It's their product, they have the factory and Ford Corporation behind them. I had to go this route years ago with a Ford dealer.
And just who did you take the Monaco DP to??? A Monaco dealer or a diesel shop. You could have gone to
Speedco Truck Lube & Tires and got the very same service for $239.00
