Gas Vs. Diesel: What's best? RV Motorhome & Tow Vehicle Decision-making | RV Miles

One of the most common questions people have when they’re about to buy an RV (or a truck to pull one) is whether or not to get a diesel. Hands down, a diesel is “better” if your definition is more power and more durability, but you have to weigh the cost against the benefits. On a 2019 Ford Super Duty (F-250 & F-350) the upgrade from the 6.2L gasoline engine to the 6.7L Power Stroke turbodiesel is $9,120. And the current national average has diesel fuel up $0.28 over gasoline.

Of course, if you ask most diesel owners, they’re going to tell you it’s absolutely worth it. If you ask most gasoline engine owners, they’ll say they get by just fine with a fatter bank account. And it’s nearly impossible to tell you with 100% certainty which engine is right for you. Instead, let’s consider the pros and cons of each.
