I agree with Chance and I wonder if the OP's maiden voyage was on varied roads (interstates, back roads, poorly surfaced roads, etc.)? I also wonder how many miles the OP drove his new RV on the maiden voyage?

Our 2015 27K feels a lot different on a smooth interstates than on a back roads with dips, off camber curves, and steep crowns. However, after driving it for about 6,000 miles, any handling quirks have become almost unnoticeable, including the blow over by rearward approaching semis. Of course most of our travels include pulling a twelve foot dual axel trailer that might act a bit like the tail of a dog.

I wonder how far off the alignment can be if the front tires are wearing evenly across the tread?
