Yea, I have to agree the diesel engines now a days are very impressive. Much lower noise and pollution and the torque will wind you over any pass with ease. From strictly a towing stand point, it is the best way to go. But if the TV is also an everyday driver, I wouldn't want the diesel. It's all a trade off. I was just saying the 6.0 could easily handle the 8300# coach. It works for me.

We just bought a Ford, 250, diesel and love it so far. We will pull our 25' Safari for the first time this weekend. Can't wait to try it out and I look forward to riding in style.

I bought STP oil filters on sale for $1.98 at Auto Zone for my Duramax. Delvac 1300 is only $5.88 a gallon at Wal-Mart. $19.62 + tax for my diesel oil change.
