Had your diesel pusher been much smaller (like an Axis in width and height but about 33-feet long), would it have made a difference in wanting to trade?



It will be interesting to see if fuel efficiency for this 23,500-pound GVWR DP is significantly better than other/larger DPs, and also if much better than an Axis/Vegas-size gasoline motorhome. Cummins previously predicted 20 to 40 percent better fuel economy out of this 275 HP 5.0L diesel V8 compared to a Ford gasoline V10, but I'm sure that was based on similar size and weight.
