Once you tow 20,000 lbs+ you will know the diesel is the way to go. The exhaust brake is a major plus. Pull the Colorado Rockies, you will see the difference Gas vs Diesel. We once owned a Freightliner sports chassis, with the Mercedes diesel, with the Allison transmission, towed a Chevy HHR behind the SOB 5th wheel, never an issue, passed many Gas burners. However one must decide how much you travel, Diesel is more expensive that gas.

Happy Trails.
Have a neighbor that few years ago had a Ram 3500 dually with a hemi and a good sized p/u camper. One year they made a trip to the west coast and when he returned they were in a new Ram 3500 Cummins dually. He told me he got tired of hearing it scream at him.
