Default Re: Gas or Diesel?

In this market you can find some pretty nice diesel coaches if you're patient and look around. I went gas the first time and practically gave it away to get rid of it before I burnt anymore $ in that tank. Short trips weren't too bad but best I could ever do was about 5.5 mpg towing 24 ft enclosed trailer. With the set back axles on front of the pushers you can make some tighter turns with a 34-36 footer than you can with the gas jobs if that's a concern to you. In my opinion you'll come out much further ahead with the diesel in the long run. Good luck
