Ok we did do a 6 week, 9500 mile RV/motor home trip in 2006.... but it has been 10 years now. I just bought a travel trailer and we are taking it on it's inaugural trip May 20th. I am realizing that I gave pretty much all my RV "stuff" away when I sold my old motor home.
So even though I think I know what I am doing, some questions are popping into my head:
I bought this:
http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/dominator-15-sewer-hose-kit/38111
But recall on my first "dump station" trip back in '06, I had to hurry into the camp store and buy a "donut" seal to use at the dump station. So question (#1) is: Do I need a foam donut with this type of sewer hose at a dump station? I was just about to place an online order for a fresh water hose and a few other things at Camping World and I wondered if I still needed a donut??? I couldn't even see one listed there.
Our first camp, and likely future ones will probably not have on site sewer and be 2-4 night trips, so I expect to use dump stations often.
Also, If I want to add water to the BW tank before going to the dump station, what is the best way to do that? In my other RV, I had a sprayer nozzle in the tanks, but not (yes) in this one. If I have site water, should I just run the hose in the toilet to fill it up before pulling to the dumpstation....??
Thanks, I'm sure I;ll have other questions coming too.....!!
