We use a #20 tank refill twice a year, we grill a lot. Also carry a one pound can for on the road don't need to hook up for a overnight. When the #20 gets old we just trade it in for a newer full one at a big box store.

I really like the 10 lb fiberglass tank. Had it filled once over a year ago and still have about 4" in the tank. We use it almost every time we camp.
I bought ours http://www.garden.com/item/10lb-lite-propane-cylinder/G25926/ here. Amazon has them now too.
We have a small RV but this tank fits under the bathroom sink. Know there are issues with carrying one inside but they have not seemed threatening enough to transfer it outside. It fits perfectly and is easy to get in and out to hook up to the grill.

We never worry about Propane. For onr tthing, we never, ever use our RV;s Furance, and haven't for many mnay years now. But that is another story.
We have always done almost nothing but Boondocking, no matter whta RV we have ever had.
Our Motorhome has a pretty fair size Built-In Propane Tank as it is. But with an Extend-A-Stay, we can go for as long as we chose to.
We also have a spare 5 Lb'er, a 20 lb'er and two 30 lb'ers as back ups if needed.
And as with a lot of Motorhomes, with their extra large "Fresh Water Tanks" and "Black & Gray Tanks", it makes it very easy to last a long time Boondocking.
We really don't worry about any of them, as its just the two of us anyways, so we can last a very long time.
We been using a little 5 lb'er for over 25 yrs now. Put a tee on it to use with both the 2 burner stove & the portable grill. Just put on a new valve when they made us change em over. It lasts us all summer & fits nicely in the storage compartment.
