Just a WAG is that small bits of road rubber is kicked up by the coach and perhaps gets into the brake rotor area and gets hot and smells.
If anyone knows for sure, a few of us would like to hear it.
I experience the same and think this is what it is too.

I think the motorhome stirs up road mung that blows onto the toad undercarriage and bottom of the engine. First few times after toad startup the road mung burns off and this is what we are smelling.
