Thanks for the info :)
I guess I shouldn't worry about gas mileage in a RV .. :) but, will I generally be better off with diesel or gas or is it a wash? Diesel seems like a pricier RV and around here it costs about 70-80 cents more per gallon and that would really add up in a 80 gallon tank :) But will the better gas mileage make it end up about the same? And with that in mind would you be able to run your generator longer too?
Or would gas be a better option overall? And, would I use just regular gas or do you need premium?
I know Diesel also has better power, but I don't think I'll ever climb the rockies in my RV. We have mountains here in PA, but they're not as big :) Plus I imagine we'll be trying to find more for shore type areas here on the east cost, since that's more our kind of thing. Based on looks and floor plans alone so far I can't decide between a class C or A, I like the winnebago minnie winnie and and the new brave looks fun. We have a big dealer kind of nearby so we might stop by one of these weekends and look around
