When you compare mileage diesel vs gas be sure to check your local price in diesel. For me it's a bit higher. Convert it to "MPD" - Miles per dollar for fuel. Some will say though that if you are minding the pennies this close Class A may not be the way to go.
Regarding low mile units. I am looking at two right now. Same make. Very similar floor plan. One is a 2000 gasser with 30k miles. One is a 1998 diesel with 100k miles. Very similar in price. Some will say " a diesel for the price of a gasser - it's a no brainer - take the DP" and some will say "one third the mileage? It's a no brainer - take the gasser." The gasser has sat in a barn. Nicely stored. The DP is with full timers who are now in FL, were recently in southwest and before that Pacific Northwest. The DP guy can answer my questions in great detail. Knows status of every thing on board. If he does not sell he is driving it back to Pacific Northwest. So it sounds like this rig is road worthy. The gasser seller can not recall if the second A/C works, did not use it the one time he took it out this year - which was local. Personally, I am looking for a unit that is well exercised but not beat up.
