Ok, I am sure this has been bantered about quite a bit but thought I would start a new thread on this that may compile a lot of good input all in one thread.
I am close to making the move from gas to diesel (pusher). What do I need to know about the operation, maintenance and idiosyncrasies, etc. in making this change? For example, in cold weather do I need put a fuel additive in to keep the diesel from gelling (I believe this was an issue many years ago). NO....winter/summer blends handle that issue
Some things I heave gleaned just from scanning previous posts are that diesel can be a little more costly for maintenance but easier to drive with much better handling. YES/NO
Oil changes cost more because more oil capacity
Fuel filters cost a bit more
But overall......egh!
Hauling/moving a load......Diesel is King!
Whatever you can think of that a diesel newbie should know - please share!
