It's probably not that far off.

I own a 2014 Hurricane 34e. When I took delivery in Melbourne, FL. I drove it to Disneyworld's Fort Wilderness in Orlando and thought the ride was very squishy and wandering.

On the trek home to CA, I stopped at a gas station in Tallahassee that had an easy-access air hose. I discovered that I had been driving with severely underinflated tires, (about 45 psi each), for over 300 miles!

After I properly inflated the tires it felt like "it was on rails" in comparison. I have never complained about the handling since.

About two months after getting the coach home, (and loading it up with all of my stuff), I took it in for it's "free" alignment at a Ford truck dealer. They checked it out and said it didn't need any adjustment.

I have about 8000 miles on it now, and the front tires have worn perfectly evenly. So, I guess the Ford truck service guys were right.
