Deisel handling
Do deisels generally require upgraded suspensions in order to handle good on the road? I have a 30ft gas and had to put $4500 into upgraded suspension in order for it to be safe to drive.

We've owned (3) gassers and (2) diesels. I would NOT agree with this statement.
You cut out the important part of my original comment.
Were those 5 rigs all on the same chassis?
The answer to your question is no. Actually all 5 were on different chassis, but you're grasping at straws.
The day they put a gas motor in a Spartan pusher let me know.
Along the same lines, the day they put a Cummins ISL in a F53 chassis let me know.
You're looking for something that just isn't available in the mass market today. Somehow I think you knew that. ;)
You need to put the shovel down, you can't dig your way out of this one.
Dig my way out of what?
Handling is almost exclusively about the chassis...just so happens the people who spend big on top of the line chassis also are willing to pay the premium for a diesel motor. The motor doesn't make it take a curve better.
