Another important consideration for those of you with a motorhome is loading and front end alignment. Many people find that their tires are wearing after only a few thousand miles. The manufacturer I worked for performed an alignment after the coach was built and before it left to be shipped to a dealership. Sometimes things happen on the road, but throwing off an alignment isn't all that easy. Typically the dealers were suppose to recommend that someone purchasing a motorhome would load the coach like they were going to use it, and then have it aligned.
The way you load your motorhome has a lot of impact on your alignment as well as the driveability of your coach. Just because you have a huge pass-through compartment on the rear end doesn't mean you should cram everything you have into it. weight should be distributed evenly throughout your compartments. Make sure you are not putting all of the heavy stuff on one side and lighter on the other. I think you get the gist here. Loading your coach evenly throughout will make the coach drive better and keep the tires from wearing unevenly or too soon.
