Of course you can add extra tanks but first you have to ask if your rig can carry the extra weight.

Actually I did see a guy towing one on a bike; it was the smallest Barker one. Saw it down in Quartzsite. Of course you will see everything down in Quartzsite!

Back when I had a fifth-wheel toyhauler I replaced the stock 40-gallon grey tank with a 97-gallon tank from Plastic Mart. I measured the available space under the rig and the folks at Plastic Mart were able to find a tank that used up just about all of the available space. The tank was around $300 and I paid a local RV shop to install it. No, I don't own or work for Plastic Mart - I'm just a satisfied customer.

Another option mentioned before: Insert a simple knife gate valve to the outlet pipe for your two tanks. To equalize your tanks, close this new valve and open your black and grey water valves. Total cost: about $10.

Don't you want to support the tree farming business? Pulp wood is a cash crop, using fast growing pine trees. Just like corn. Thanks.

Along the lines of using gray to put the fire out, what percentage of folks do you think dump a bit of gray out in the woods? With biodegradable soaps, I don't understand the harm? I'm a newbie, so take it easy....I'm here for education.
