UPDATE - first the refresher - The MH is 33', 208" wheelbase, F-53 chassis. 2006 National SeaBreeze LX. I've now done the CHF, have a steering stabilizer, a Hellwig rear anti-sway bar, rear trac bar, and poly bushings on the original Ford anti-sway bars, front and rear. Firestone airbags as well, and run the "correct" tire pressures based on the MH weight (actually weighed). Toe-in is slightly positive (in). The differences since the last post are the rear trac bar and the toe in.
So we have gone 800 miles on this trip now, and the handling issues have pretty much been solved. Semis are a non-issue, wondering is pretty much gone, and no more butt-puckering experiences. Crosswinds to 10-12mph are non-issues as well. While I still pretty much set the cruise on 60-62, on flat roads I've gone to 65 and felt comfortable. Thanks to everyone for their help and input. I just thought I would close the loop on this thread.
Safe travels everyone.
