Why are there so few Fr.E.D.?
Been looking at Class As lately, more out of curiosity than anything. Why don't manufacturers offer more diesels in the front engine chassis? Seems like it would be a win/win other than price but at...

One of the main reasons that I went with a DP was less rear overhang compared with the gas coaches. I would imagine that if you put even more weight on the front axle with a front diesel you could end up with the rear axle around the middle of the coach. I do like not hearing the engine at all during normal driving but I do hear the fan when it goes into high speed on hills. It is not bad but I feel that if it was 30 feet closer it would be much worse. The long driveshaft and exhaust system would probably interfere with basement storage a lot. There are drawbacks too but that is not what the op asked about. On the other hand, I would be interested in a rear gasser if that is available when I make my next purchase.
