Some Class B RVs have black tanks of eight gallon capacity; how often do you think they need to dump?

Linda Sand

So you're saying that poster spent 8 yrs fulltiming in a Class B?  Interesting he didn't say that himself.

No file attached that I can find.

That is what I thought, but you never know.

 put  ~2/3 cup of borax and ~2/3 cup of washing soda into the tank after each flush. 

After each "toilet" flush or each "tank" flush?

Must be very small tanks.  Our black tank is 82 gallons, the grey is 100 gallons.  Dump  once every 12 days or so, usually the afternoon noon before we leave if traveling.   And thinking that the TP is what can cause the pyramid of doom inside the black tank is false.  It is fecal matter that dries out.  By keeping the dump valves open I assume using lots of water with each flush which is why they haven't had a problem.     All fecal matter will smell as it decays, the question then becomes how much fecal matter is on the used tissue, which depends upon the digestive tract of each individual and their anatomy.  For some higher water content will mean more TP needed to complete cleansing, for others lower water content will mean less TP needed.   

That is why I said wow.  But you probably meant to quote gjhunter instead of me.

Companies buy and sell all the time.  AT&T has been affiliated with Direct for what, 10 yrs or so?  It now appears Direct no longer fits in their company strategic plan.

2 x week x 10 min x 52 weeks/year  x 8 years = 138 hours not spent dumping

2x a week?  Wow!  10 min per?  Wow again.  

Regular TP gets flushed.

Replaced our RV recliners with a couple Lazy Boys.  Very happy with them.

I don't think AAA can prohibit anything.  It is more likely the individual tow companies instituted the policy to protect their employees.

2 of them being used fulltime by single guys in the park I'm at.  Both are happy with them.  Both removed the Happi Jack seats in the garage.  One changed from a gasser class A toy hauler he's used for 10 years to the Momentum.

A few years ago my wife and I met a British couple who owned a fifthwheel and truck to pull it here in the US.  They spend the maximum time allowed (6 months?) traveling the US before heading back across the pond to the UK.  There they spend the minimum required time before coming back to the US.  They've been doing it for years.

IIRC, they have to spend a certain number of days in the UK to keep their medical insurance coverage.

Anyone have real world experience with this stuff?  Web page and youtube vids claim you can use it to clean everything.  I have a hard time believing in "waterless" products for cleaning dirt off the exterior of any vehicle.  Maybe as a "dust" remover, but cleaning road grime...nope.

To each their own, but I don't understand why anyone would want to travel to the US when cases are climbing...unless their country has a higher level of cases.

 He texted back he tested positive on Wednesday for covid.

Did he test positive only once?  

Elon Musk tested positive twice and negative twice in the same day using the same nurse and the same testing methodology.  

Rig came with a queen.  Tossed it out, added a larger platform and got a king.  Very happy with it.

What's wrong with that? Hiring someone to move you occasionally seems waaaayy cheaper than buying and maintaining a truck. Jay

All I'll say is "Good luck with that".

Huh?  You want a 5th wheel without having a truck to pull it?  

People bought RVs thinking they could rent them???  

It's probably not very good as a boat or an RV.

Direct from the South Dakota government. and this from the Argus Leader.

Thanks for those links.  Good for 5 years.  More expensive than FL.  I'd have to buy more than 10 handguns in that 5 years to make it worth the cost.

If you get a SD Gold or Enhanced CCW, those include an exemption from the background check requirement.

Can you cite a valid source for this?  CCW is a STATE-controlled item.  Background checks are Federal.  If there was a way around them, I'm surprised Fla hasn't done it, too.

Just to add to the confusion, SD full-timers cannot legally buy a new handgun. SD requires a 30-day stay at a permanent address, NOT a State Park, mail forwarding service, etc. 

Who told you a SD resident, not otherwise prohibited by law, can not buy a handgun in SD?  I'd like to see that prohibition in writing.

subjects do roll off very quickly and discussions rarely stay visible for more than a few days. And that is the reason that I prefer the bulletin board type forums for most discussions.

Agreed.  Plus sifting thru results from the search function of this forum is much easier then any FB page, IMO.
