Gas or Diesel?

What type of weight will you be towing? How many miles do you plan on putting on your unit a year? What type of roads will you be traveling? Hills or flat land? If you have an open trailer I would consider a gas job. But lets face it 25k either way is not going to get you much. You may spend more in repairs over the next few years with an older unit. The diesel motors last forever but the rest of the coach gets beat up over our roads. And it could nickel and dime you to death. Towing many miles with a heavy trailer with a gas job is asking a lot out of it. Although my brother has logged many miles with his. It's really a coin toss Good luck either way. Barry
