CHP will help with tail push from weather and passing vehicles but the result is secondary to what the change effects. If your goal is to reduce the tail push then a rear track bar is what you want. If reducing sway or lean in a turn is your goal then do the CHP mode. If you want to reduce lane wonder than a steering stabilizer (along with a front end alignment and proper tire pressure) is want you need.

If you plan to make any changes to improve the ride comfort, handling and general performance best to make a single change then drive the coach for several hundred miles in various conditions and road surfaces and judge if you need to try something else of is the coach behaving as you want. Best to start with low cost stuff. Correct air pressure, CHP, weight balance and alignment before you start writing checks.

And if you're wondering I have it all but probably only need half. Besides what I listed as low cost I added Koni shocks, air bags all around with an onboard compressor and on the fly pressure change capability (both adding and reducing), rear track bar and front stabilizer. The no cost and low cost stuff had the greatest effect on ride performance while the most expensive (air bags) had the least effect.
