I had that same RV for ten years, the truck frame stops just behind the rear axle. The RV manufacturer welds / adds a channel to extend the back part of the Motorhome frame.
Often this channel extension is considerably smaller than the OEM truck frame and the receiver / hitch is attached to that. You will want to have a welding shop inspect the hitch for overall capacity evaluation and possibly beef it up with some extra welded brackets or replace it all together with a higher rated hitch.
You will experience 4 to 5 mpg @60 mph that's about 28 ounces of gas a minute! :B
