Yes I can see this working. You might end up taking a huge loss on the RV in the end, but at least you will not need to pay for gas to bring it back home, say 2000 miles at 8 MPG, that is worth something. And you could see everything you wanted to see, without needing to spend another week or so bringing the RV back home.
Of if the hubby likes to drive the RV, (and has more vacation time) let him bring it back from Portland or Seattle by himself, by driving 400 miles a day, it would take a week or so. . .
The other possibility is get a family member to drive it back from Seattle. Perhaps they are also thinking it would be great to take time in August to drive from Washington to NC, but don't have time to make the round trip. They could meet you in WA, and drive it back, via I90 and see things like Yellowstone and Mt Rushmore, or take the southern route (very hot though that time of year) and see the Grand Canyon, and those places. Or meet up with them in San Francisco, and they could see Yosemite, and that area, before heading back with your RV to your home.
Anything can happen, just plan for the best, and don't sweat the small stuff.
