Diesel motorhoms and gas motorhomes are built on totally differnt chassis. The gas motorhomes have the motors in front, and have to have the driveshaft going to the rear wheels, thus taking up the middle section of the motorhome (they still have storage on the sides, but the storage doesn't pass through the entire width) Also, they use the same type suspencion and brakes that would be on a F550. The dielels have the motor in the back, and thus between the rear wheels and front wheels is all for storage, and that way they can use larger holding tanks since more room exists. The diesels also use Air brakes and air suspencion.

And Newmar is a company that makes RV's. Like Ford or Chevy


Chris, what brand of motorhomes are you looking at?
