I think torque steer is common to almost all front wheel drive vehicles!
The harder the gas pedal is pushed, the greater the effect!

Just to close this problem thread, it turns out the drivers side axle nut was loose and ruined the wheel bearing (1-ton conversion). That was causing
drag and the coach was steering itself left.
With that fixed I am back to a bit of torque steer, which I have been fighting forever.
