Gas $250 a month, diesel I would take Executive's number at $500. An average year you probably won't need that much but there are a few high cost items that will need replacing after several years of use. Tire, batteries first come to mind and there are some mileage or time based power train service needs that can be expensive. If you're able to do routine maintenance on both the chassis or house you will save a lot on the labor cost of a service center.
Regarding the unexpected break down emergencies, well if the coach is a keeper and you blow a hole in the engine block of a diesel the bill can have a lot of zero's. Maybe easy access to $5k for the more usual unexpected problems would be a reasonably safe number.
