We have looked doesnt seem to be alot out there in the diesels either too old or to much in price range. Definitely have noticed the swing in the more modern coaches by way of interiors.
Some of the older stuff is hideous lol momma won't go for that lol.

What about the maintenance cost? Much higher I hear. And the diesel fuel is more... which makes NO sense being that it is less refined.

I'm not opposed to a diesel, but it has to fit our needs and budget of 150ish

Rear engine diesel is quieter and 2.3 mpg better fuel economy. Simple things make using the rig so much easier. Water pump switch in the wet bay for when you disconnect from "city" water. You can fill the fresh water tank from the city water hookup, just move a shut off lever 45 degrees. There is a water pump switch in the bathroom, in case you have forgotten to turn the pump on. That's three things just on the water system. Consider other possibilities before you stick with Thor. Just my 2 cents worth.

Capacities:
Fuel Capacity100.0 gal.
Fresh Water Tank Capacity 85.0 gal.
Total Gray Water Tank Capacity 61.0 gal.
Black Water Tank Capacity 46.0 gal.
