Subaru's tank about the size of yours. They NEVER needed any of the extra fuel. All it did was damage the rear bumper of the trailer with the extra weight.
Come to think of it, a friend bought a Toyota-based Class C in AK and drove it to FL. Never complained about a gasoline crisis.
You will be simply JUST FINE! Welcome to Forum, Congratulations on your RV, Have a Great Trip, and Keep in Touch.
