Diesel vs gas for truck campers?
Have posted a few questios phere on the truck camper forum asking for help in down sizing to a TC and thanks for the help so far, I have been going over the weights of the TC's that we have looked at...

This has gone a little off track but I get the idea,Thanks for all the replies. I have a diesel DRW now and love it but it just cant handle the weight I am thinking about , so that said i think it is going to be gas ...
Mike, I have to tell you...in the TC world that just doesn't make sense. The choice of gas vs diesel really is not going to affect your ability to carry that camper.
Tire/wheel/axle ratings are your concern.
You will likely exceed the factory payload rating...get over that if you plan to carry a TC. The rest of us have and are happily out TCing!
It's a reality we all struggled with at first.
Good luck...and check your tires/wheels/axles! If you like diesel-get diesel.
