We bought a DP. Several things played in to that. We had a $20K budget, wanted a really nice quality interior, and I hate the sound of a wound-up gas engine near me.
For that budget, we got full body paint, a diesel generator, a good-sized shower (pet peeve), ceramic toilet, 8-bag suspension, ceramic tile in kitchen and bath, nice cabinetry, pleasing fabrics, twin ACs, and everything working properly.
The gas coaches in that price range, though newer, had really ugly fabrics, cheap hardware, and things inside falling apart. Oh, and a couple of showers that the 6'0" of me literally could not stand up straight in. So many gas coaches just look so cheap and impermanent inside.
No regrets, no plans to change.
