We got an average of 8.3 mpg over many thousands of miles in a 2000 HR Endeavor 38ft with the 2000 yr model of the cat 330. Most miles were at 64 mph with a toad.
In addition to the good advice listed above, verify when the engine air filter was changed. I do not recall the recommended time interval, but the glue can break down and allow the filter material to be sucked toward the engine, and allow dusting of the engine.
If the alignment does not solve your wandering problem, check for too much free play in the steering gear box. If on a Freightliner chassis, there is a hole in a frame member on the side of the gear box providing access to the adjustment screw & lock nut.
If the front end is a solid axle, a steer safe will eliminate rut tracking.
Enjoy your new motorhome.
