Full timing rig; the search continues
My family is planning on a full year tour of the states in a few years. Original plan was to use our current rig, but plans have changed; truck and fiver are gone, which opens up a motorhome purchase....

We wrestled with the same issues. Gas vs Diesel. We opted for gas because of the long-term expenses. $80 for an oil change in a gas powered beats $250 for a diesel oil change any day plus you don't have to find that "special" garage to have it done. Heck, even in the valley, Joe the mechanic can change oil(makes me think that even I can do this). There is a BH model in both diesel and gas models. With or without washer/dryer is a personal option. We opted not to have one as we wanted the storage space. The last issue is if you want used or new. There is good and bad in both. Used have all of the bugs worked out but unless you know the history, you could be buying a "pig in the pole". However, we bought new and are still returning the MH to the dealer to fix the "bugs". Best advice is read, look, listen, look, look and then look again.
