Just bought our first RV - a 2017 Quantum RS26

My wife and I are both retired (64/60) and just bought our first RV, a Quantum RS26. It's built on a Ford E450 chassis, has the Triton V10 motor, a GVWR of 14,500 (5000 front/9600 rear). The only mileage thus far is driving it 4 hours home from the dealer (American Family RV in Chesapeake, MD). Learned alot about how it acts on the highway, secondaries, in town and in parking lots. The 55 gal fuel tank and the 41 gal LPG tank were full but all other tanks were empty. What I noticed immediately was how softly the vehicle road in the back. Research on line has lead me to wonder whether the vehicle may be under sprung in the back.

Do any of you own an Quantum RS26 and if so have you come across any problems with the rear suspension handling the vehicle weight? What solutions do you recommend? I'm real familiar with car suspensions, but heavy duty truck/van suspensions I'm not at all familiar with.
