The DP has a much better ride, will climb hills better, handle the winds better and come down the mountains better with the air brakes and retarder. Ours is 39' and we've had no problems with the length.
Diesel was cheaper here for a couple of months, now it's about 10 cents more expensive. Look at it this way, gas couldn't move this MH, so it's not like I could have chosen gas even if I had wanted it. Most people just don't put enough miles on to worry about it. A 25 cent difference on 15,000 miles a year is only $3,750. That would be about 2 1/2 round trips across the country per year.
Dennis / Executive does a lot of traveling and he's almost a fulltimer. Dennis - how many miles are you putting on it a year?
