For long term boondocking a few 6 or 7 gallon containers may not be enough, and I for one, would not want to have to lug them around. A 55 (or 35) gallon drum can be secured in the bed of your truck, filled and gravity drained without ever having to move it.
What's the difference between a 35 gal drum mounted in the bed of a truck and five 7 gal Aquatainers? Easy answer - that 35 gal drum will weigh ~ 300 lbs when full :E while a 7 gal Aquatainer will weigh 60 lbs and is easily lowered from the truck bed to a dump station sewer pad ... tip the 'Tainer to drain it and you're done, no "lugging" anything around, no need for fittings or drain hoses. Total capacity can be as great as you want it to be, determined solely by the number of Aquatainers you have - cube shaped, easy to store as there's no wasted space. And when you're not camping what do you do with that big drum? ... leave it in the truck only to be in the way all the time? :S
Fulltimers don't unload.
I understand your position, it is valid if you don't mind lowering 60 lbs. to the ground times how ever many containers you have. With the drum all you have to lift (sort of) is the hose and you could even leave that hooked up.
