I have heard around 30,000 hours between overhauls! That was just from a group of guys standing around talking, so I wouldn't put too much credence in it. But they will last a long, long time. Diesels are awesome!

The most hours I have seen on any RV generator was about 6,000 hours. I had 5,000 + on my 1993 Newell generator when I sold the coach. The buyer didn't think much of it.

I only have 3,500 or so on my present coach. If you change the oil and filters they will last a long time.
