What kind of issues should we be on the lookout for? The camper will be brand new.
New doesn't mean in perfect working order. It's not at all uncommon for new rigs to have issues and it's a lot easier to sort them out locally.
Also, I'm guessing you are trying to make due with an existing truck of unknown condition if you are trying to get away with a standard V6. It may run fine when lightly loaded but load it up to the max and run for hours and issues may show up.
If the issues were obvious, we would just suggest fixing them before leaving. That's where the shake down trip comes in handy. It's possible you do the trip with zero issues but the odds are not in your favor.
