I've had both diesel and gas, no preference, mostly depends on the application it's being used for. Gas engines, mostly all Ford now, can be serviced in just about every town, not so much with a diesel. With a diesel you will also have to have a diesel generator or one that runs on propane, also another expense. A lot to consider!

On all the MBS coaches I looked at, including the 2400W, the generator is only 2.3kw, which is not very big. The same coach with a gasser will have a 4kw generator.
