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 ...

That screaming of the engine is what gas engines need to do to make their power. All of them do it. Nothing is coming through the hood, diesels make their power at a much lower RPM. Some people can't stand that high RPM. Your options are deal with the high RPM or get a diesel.
If I had some way to prove it I would bet most people driving diesel spend more time above 90% of redline than gas engine drivers do.
Why do you think that? The only time I see higher RPM is with the exhaust brake when loaded heavy, then I would agree the revs get high when its steep and I am heavy. Other than that, I would completely disagree.
