Good info so far.
I have been leaning toward diesel for the torque, but am not opposed to gas if it carries well. Apparently some are pleased with their gassers. The gassers are definitely cheaper to purchase. And I suspect operating costs.
I've seen some of the diesel you tube videos and they don't instill a lot of confidence.
I appreciate the comments about the emissions control not liking to be idle. I didn't have to worry about that with the 7.3.
One issue I have as far as looking at units is I live in a pretty rural area and there isn't much within an hour or more drive. (Even worse looking for a replacement camper)
Continuing to gather info.
Thanks,
Dale

You can get a Ford truck with a Cummins and an Allison, it's called a F-650 or F-750. To me it goes to show that Ford didn't trust their own products. They put their diesel and tranmission in the "little" F250 and F350 but when they built a "big" F-650 they used the same engine that's in a 2500 RAM and the same transmission (almost) that's in a 2500 Chevy.
