RV & tow vehicle shopping now. I really like the 315RLTS but wanted to purchase a F250 7.3 or similar to avoid some of the maintenance and purchase expense of a diesel. One of my friends who has a 34' travel trailer mentioned that sometimes it can be a bit of an ordeal to maneuver in gas stations with his 34' TT and the 315 is about 4' longer. I have been towing a boat (about 30' from end of trailer tongue to end of outboard) for 15 years and can usually manage to get to a pump but it is sometimes a bit of a circus depending on how busy. My friend said that I might consider a diesel just to be able to use the truck stops for refueling with a trailer this long. The short bed truck I was hoping to buy also only has a 34 gal tank, so there will be a fair amount of refueling stops on a multi-day trip. Wondering what the opinion is of others who have experience pulling a 38' TT. Thank you very much.
