after thinking about this a bit more, i think maybe we are approaching this as engineers on how to fix the problem. instead, maybe we should EMBRACE the problem as an advantage. so, how about putting all the awnings down before driving, and using them as "lift" to decrease the weight on the tires, which we have all been saying is another problem we have.

so, with the awnings down, there will be some lift on the coach, reducing the air pressure needed for the tires, saving the cost of the air pressure multiplier, and extending the life on the tires.

besides that, it would look really cool!

that my 2 cents worth and in this case, about all it is worth!
