Ford Diesel

Looking at buying a new to us F250 mid 1990’s. A lot of the Fords have the 6.0 L Diesel engines. I am only pulling a 22 foot fun finder and know I want need that size motor. But most of the 250’s out there have the diesel. I really haven’t made up my mind one way or the other on gas or diesel. Our gas Chev (230,000 miles)works great and I can make it over Vail pass on I70 at 50 MPH. I know the oil burner crowd will tell me to go with the Diesel, I do know the cost of driving one will be higher than the gas. Any pro or con on this motor? Any thing special I should be looking at ?
