New to diesel owner

We have owned three gas MHs since 1998. Today we purchased a Tiffin 34' diesel pusher. I loved the driving control and the layout. Since we plan a long trip this year, seemed to be a good upgrade. Kind of the dream MH and on the bucket list!

What do I need to know now that I have gone to the dark side of diesel ownership?? I am a true novice on fuel, maintenance and all things diesel. HELP!!

Thanks in advance.

    A couple things you'll soon figure out:

    1. You'll arrive at your destination relaxed and refreshed after not fighting the coach down the road.

    2. Cost of ownership of a diesel is about the same as a gas coach...speaking from experience, of course.

    Enjoy your new rig to it's fullest.....Dennis

    Welcome to the Tiffin family! You will enjoy the ride quality and overall power. We recently made the switch too, so feel free to PM me if you have specific questions.
