Lets see: RVIA allows that in their building "codes" and some vehicles are made just that way. For one it's sometimes easier and cheaper, for others it's to counteract the underuse of water in the black tank.
But it's nasty. Why ever it it's done.

We went to the snack bar at the campground and told the teenager behind the counter we wanted lite ice and she said they only had one kind. She was serious.
We laughed about that for days.

Does he leave the wife back and kids back at the house. If so, this make perfect sense.

Does he leave the wife back and kids back at the house. If so, this make perfect sense. Our "empty nest" has gotten crowded with the son, DIL, and grandson moving in. Now there is another on the way. I have often thought of going out to the yard and staying in the MH. Peace and quiet.

I don't get it. What IS "lite ice"? Sounds to me like you were asking for low-calorie ice cubes, I would have been the one laughing.

It must be a Regional term. Lite vs Heavy!
We've traveled quite a bit coast to coast, never heard of this term either!

Do you have separate black and gray sewers at home? Some RV's run everything into just one large tank. Waste water is waste water.

I don't see what's wrong with launching a boat with any RV. Now dunking it on the other hand....

Then there are the folks that think that since the jack doesn't have wheels, they don't need to chock the tires.
That works until there is a sufficient grade to point out the error of their ways.
