I've been driving a 39 ft. class A for 15 years and still get a little apprehensive every time I think about starting a trip but the apprehension only lasts for a mile or so after I hit the road.
I'm glad it's not just me. I get stressed out just before we leave - both coming and going. Once on the road for a little while, I start to relax.
And whoever mentioned the first 1,000 miles was spot on. I just turned 2,000 miles driving mine and I have a lot more confidence. I still have the usual stressors though - narrow construction lanes, traffic, tight city streets, etc. I've had the navigation take me on some routes where I had no business going with my 30-footer, too. Definitely plan your routes and if you deviate from the plan, stop and double check your new route.
Tail swing? Yeah I got that (check out the pic in my sig).
