Why not gasser rear enging?
What is against rear engine gassers, and front engine diesels? Just wondering? Same goes for the common pickup truck diesels in the rear?

I reply that it is a diesel pusher that burns gas.
Not really. My dream coach doesn't exist...it would be a Foretravel with the same floor plan I have now..except I would add a second living area slide. But this takes this thread off topic so to bring it back:
I have never had an overheating issue..its just the opposite. When Workhorse was testing the UFO chassis, which they did in Death Valley, it was determined it ran too cool and lost engine efficiency, so they modified the design to make it run a bit warmer. There is a scoop or channel, whatever you want to call it, that moves air from the front of the coach over the engine. The FCA only kicks on when the engine is under a lot of stress, like climbing up hill on a hot day. That is one of the things about my coach that I like..it's extremely quiet. When idling I have to look at the Tach sometimes to know that it is running at all. I don't hear it going down the road unless I turn my rear camera mike on.
