Wheels Seem Out of Plumb on My MPG

I bought a 2011 MPG in Sept of last year and when you stand in front of it and look at the wheels, they both seem like they are not vertical.....they look like they are out further at the bottom than the top of the wheel.....makes the trailer look "slewfooted". I'm wondering if this is normal for the torsion bar suspension on the MPG or if I might have some kind of little problem. Talked to an "expert" in trailer alignment and he told me this is not unusual for torsion bar suspensions on travel trailers and that there is no adjustment for this condition. He suggested that I continue to travel and watch the wear on the tires and make sure that they aren't wearing on one side of the tire more than the other. Anyone else noticed this or had any problem related to such a thing?

I can't tell you much about tire wear etc., but I can tell you that you're not alone. We brought our 183 home today and looking in the mirror I can see the tires are not exactley perpendicular to the ground.
