I don't think that gas or diesel is the first question to ask. I think the question is how do you plan to use the MH and your camping preferences. If you like NF.NP,SP's that are more secluded with few amenities. Then a shorter MH would be better. If you like RV parks with all the amenities like FHU,s longer stays a larger MH would be nicer to live in. Do you want to travel more or camp more? I think peoples camping style changes with age. Many start as travelers and after seeing what the want to see end up staying more long term in RV parks. I think that is why a lot of people on this forum start with a small gas MH and if they like the life style end up with a 40 ft diesel. I know many that buy 5th wheels because they go south for 6 mos and north 6 mos and don't want a diesel sitting that long. So as John Wayne said rent for awhile try both types of camping then decide. A mh less than 33 ft would would probably want to be gas and one over 38ft would want to be diesel.
