Steering a Motorhome
We have been full timing for three years pulling a fifth wheel. We purchased a 2013 37' Winnibago Itasca Meridian. We have driven it for about 500 miles, it seems like I constantly need to be slightly...

I hear you OP. I thought the same thing last summer when we went from a 5er to a MH. After 3K miles now you kind of get use to it. I think I was not looking far enough down the road for my corrections. Setting up high and looking down and not out to the horizon caused me to over steer.
The biggest change is in windy conditions. The fiver wasn't bad at all. The MH is like a giant kite :B

I too went from a big stable FW to a motorhome. Was awful driving it for first 1000. Started getting comfortable by 2000 miles. Now, at 10k miles I can get up make a sandwich, go to the bathroom and take a nap at 57 mph (I like to drive slow for safety reasons). I also did CHF around 1000 miles which helped a lot.
