propane or diesel

What are the pros-cons of fuel source to generator on a B+ motorhome?

Many thanks

B+ LP tank will usually be a max of 8 gallons which means no more than 6 hours running. IF the Diesel is optioned go with it. Doug

I got a lot of good answers when I asked the same question last week on the class A forum.

I found some of the many other threads on this topic. I will go propane because it will not be used much (I have 200W portable solar). The diesels on our farm get "gummy" if they sit too long.

For infrequent use, I would go propane, but I doubt that would apply to many, so just weight, size and cost would be the issue- all told though, I would go with diesel.

same as on a Class A or C...with an LP genny it may mean a long trip to resupply the propane. when the tank is dry it's just not the genny that's out...no furnace, no stove, no fridge. OTOH, with a fuel supply genny (gas or diesel) you are unlikely to drain the fuel tank as most gennys will not drain the fuel much more than 3/4 empty.
