Welcome to the RTA forum!

CA-1 is the world famous Pacific Coast Highway, and sees lots of traffic- including lots of RV traffic. It certainly is a slow going road, that will be even slower with your rig, but there's no reason that I know of that you couldn't take it.

Especially if you are concerned about this, I would stick to US-101 until at least San Luis Obispo, and possibly take that up even a bit farther to CA-46 which you could take to Cambria. That's basically your last chance to head west to the coast.

The only other option would be to take 101 to Salinas and backtrack down 1.
