How long to learn to drive a Class A

We are considering the purchase of a new Class A. (presently have a 37 ft. 5th wheel) We went on test drives in a new Georgetown (1st) and a Tiffin Breeze (2nd). I was loving the Georgetown on the back roads but then, we got on the interstate. Didn't enjoy that at all. Went back and got the Tiffin. Same thing. The salesman said he could tell I was used to rack and pinion steering. I'm wondering if I will get used to the feeling a swaying and the play in the steering. About how long did it take for you to get the hang of driving a Class A?

    I've had several MH's both gas and diesel. All but one needed a front end alignment. In every case I had the shop put a couple degrees more caster in it. No comparison in how it handles. Tracks straight with one hand.

    Mine does not sway and no play in the steering wheel.
    Think it needs a front end alignment.
