time for a diesel?
Hi all, I've been thinking about switching from our 5er to a motorhome. I really really like our 5er (Forest River Flagstaff 2020 529RLKS uvw 9531). But really we are more, travel to a campground ...

I like diesels so I’m gonna vote yes … get a diesel. The little bit of money that you save one way vs the other is not going to be significant in my opinion.
Plus you get the benefit of the exhaust brake with diesel
Hmmm, I have heard that when diesels go bad its very expensive. Isn't there a fuel additive that you have to put in diesel?
I can only speak for my self. I'm on my 3rd diesel. I have never used any fuel additives. My last diesel went 300K miles before I traded.
No major issues.
My current diesel has 108K miles.
As far as repairs they are all expensive when they break.
I do think gassers have a slight repair advantage but it's not about price.
While I have not had any problems getting my diesel repaired. There are more gas mechanics and shops than diesel
