Figure up your fuel cost based on miles driven, and compare the two. MPG while towing will be practically the same for either engine. So just figure the non-towing miles. It might only be a difference of $200 or $300 between the two.
The V8 will do much better on hills and mountains. I guess it partly depends on where you plan to camp. Flatland trips close to home, it probably won't matter so much. Long vacations across country, you'd be very glad to have the V8 power.
